Engineering
Thermodynamics by Glen E. Myers Edition: 2 Publication date: May 2007 ISBN: 978-0-9666065-2-2 Hardcover Pages: 720 Page size: 8.5 in × 11.0 in Book mass: 4.2 lbm Overview: This textbook is written for junior-level mechanical engineering students taking their first course(s) in thermodynamics. Basic balances of mass, energy, availability and entropy are stressed. The concept of availability is introduced early and integrated throughout the book. By discarding the classical approach and placing more emphasis on second-law analysis, a better understanding of the second law is obtained. Orderly problem-solving techniques, systems (closed and open), property diagrams and units are emphasized. |
