Applied Thermodynamics for Engineers (Classic Reprint) - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Master the practical physics of steam and heat engines Learn how to analyze real-world thermodynamics with clear, applicable methods. This edition emphasizes practical tools you can use on the job, from sketches of adiabatic processes to step-by-step problem solving.

This book guides engineers and students through core ideas in a steady, example-driven style. You’ll find approachable explanations of steam properties, entropy diagrams, and the Mollier chart, plus methods to compute heat, work, and volume for saturated and superheated vapor. The coverage stays focused on usable techniques for design, analysis, and testing of steam systems and related equipment.

• How to read and apply entropy and Mollier diagrams for steam problems


• Calculations of latent heat, specific heats, and adiabatic work


• Techniques for predicting state changes in dry, wet, and superheated steam


• Practical approaches to composing and solving real engineering problems
