THERMODYNAMICS AND HEAT POWER 9ED (HB 2021) Hardcover

The newly revised ninth edition of "Thermodynamics and Heat Power" presents thermodynamics concepts in a reorganized order, starting with physical properties, then moving to processes and energy systems. This updated structure is designed to help Engineering and Engineering Technology students effectively achieve the learning objectives of their introductory thermodynamics course. Written with a clear and accessible approach, the book emphasizes fundamental thermodynamics principles and explores topics such as renewable energy, internal combustion engines, power plants, heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC), as well as practical heat transfer applications. It examines the relationships between energy, heat, and work within thermodynamic cycles, and explains how fluid properties impact system performance. The text includes numerous worked examples and practice problems, making it an excellent resource for undergraduate students.
