Fundamentals of Thermodynamics
Description:
- Discusses the concepts of mechanical, thermal, and thermodynamic equilibrium and their applications.
- Covers the molecular basis for internal energy, entropy, thermodynamic equilibrium, and reversibility.
- Enables the reader to model irreversibility and determine the net loss in performance of a thermal system compared to an idealized system and approach an ideal one.
- Demonstrates entropy as a path independent property by use of reversible heat engines and reversible heat pumps interacting with a process between two states, the environment and the reservoir.
- Covers the role of reversibility from a thermodynamics standpoint and relates it to other areas, such as gas dynamics, combustion, propulsion, power plant engineering, and engines.
