    ENGINEERING THERMODYNAMICS WITH WORKED EXAMPLES

    by Nihal E Wijeysundera (National University of Singapore, Singapore)

    Table of Contents (54k)
    Preface (41k)
    Chapter 4: The First Law of Thermodynamics (470k)
    Chapter 6: The Second Law of Thermodynamics (548k)
    Chapter 7: Entropy (496k)

    The book includes all the subject matter covered in a typical undergraduate course in engineering thermodynamics. It includes a series of worked examples in each chapter, carefully chosen to expose students to diverse applications of engineering thermodynamics. Each worked example is designed to be representative of a class of physical problems. At the end of each chapter, there are an additional 10 to 15 problems for which numerical answers are provided.

    Supplementary materials are available upon request for all instructors who adopt this book as a course text. Please send your request to sales@wspc.com.
