Thermodynamics: An Engineering Approach (Repost)

This book is intended for use as a textbook by undergraduate engineering students in their sophomore or junior year, and as a reference book for practicing engineers.

The objectives of this text are
• To cover the basic principles of thermodynamics.
• To present a wealth of real-world engineering examples to give students a feel for how thermodynamics is applied in engineering practice.
• To develop an intuitive understanding of thermodynamics by emphasizing the physics and physical arguments.

This book careful explains of concepts and its use of numerous practical examples and helps students develop the necessary skills to bridge the gap between knowledge and the confidence to properly apply knowledge.
