This concise text provides an essential treatment of thermodynamics and a discussion of the basic principles built on an intuitive description of the microscopic behavior of matter. Aimed at a range of courses in mechanical and aerospace engineering, the presentation explains the foundations valid at the macroscopic level in relation to what happens at the microscopic level, relying on intuitive and visual explanations which are presented with engaging cases. With ad hoc, real-word examples related also to current and future renewable energy conversion technologies and two well-known programs…mehr

This concise text provides an essential treatment of thermodynamics and a discussion of the basic principles built on an intuitive description of the microscopic behavior of matter. Aimed at a range of courses in mechanical and aerospace engineering, the presentation explains the foundations valid at the macroscopic level in relation to what happens at the microscopic level, relying on intuitive and visual explanations which are presented with engaging cases. With ad hoc, real-word examples related also to current and future renewable energy conversion technologies and two well-known programs used for thermodynamic calculations, FluidProp and StanJan, this text provides students with a rich and engaging learning experience.

Autorenporträt
William C. Reynolds (1933-2004) was a renowned and exceptionally creative scientist who specialized in turbulent flow and computational fluid dynamics. However, his competence spanned many areas of fluid mechanics, and of mechanical engineering in general. He completed his bachelor's (1954), master's (1955) and doctoral (1957) degrees at Stanford University, California. Reynolds chaired the Department of Mechanical Engineering from 1972 to 1982 and from 1989 to 1992. A pioneer in large eddy simulation for fluid modelling, he was elected to the National Academy of Engineering in 1979. He won the Fluid Engineering Award of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers in 1989 and the Otto Laporte Award by the American Physical Society in 1992. He was universally recognized as a gifted and original educator. He wrote several books, some on thermodynamics.
Rezensionen
'This is a comprehensive and clearly written text that is organized in such a way that it may be used in both undergraduate and graduate courses in engineering thermodynamics.' Craig T. Bowman, Stanford University, California
