Chemical Engineering Thermodynamics: An Introduction To Thermodynamics For Undergraduate Engineering Students
This book illustrates the practical nature of thermodynamics in chemical engineering. It uses a minimum of mathematics with no sacrifice of rigor. It presents the second law in an innovative manner independent of statistical arguments, instead developing it as a natural consequence of physical experience.From the PublisherThe aim of this contemporary textbook is to show students that thermodynamics is a useful tool, not just a series of theoretical exercises. Written in a conversational style, the text presents the second law in a totally new manner--there is no reliance on statistical arguments; instead it is developed as a natural consequence of physical experience. Students are not required to write complex, iterative computer programs to solve phase equilibrium problems--techniques are presented which enable use of readily available math packages. The book also explores electrochemical systems such as batteries and fuel cells. Included in the extensive amount of examples are those which demonstrate the use of thermodynamics in practical design situations.About the AuthorJack Winnick is an engineering professor with 40 years expertise, mainly at Georgia Tech. He has also worked in the Chemical and Nuclear Engineering industries, as well as NASA.
