Synopsis

This is a comprehensive, best selling introduction to the basics of engineering thermodynamics. Requiring only college level physics and calculus, this popular book includes a realistic art program to give more realism to engineering devices and systems. A tested and proven problem solving methodology encourages readers to think systematically and develop an orderly approach to problem solving. It provides readers with a state of the art introduction to second law analysis. Design/open ended problems provide readers with brief design experiences that offer them opportunities to apply constraints and consider alternatives.

A propos du livre

Quatrième de couverture

A proven pedagogical framework gives students the support they need!

Now with an even stronger pedagogical framework, Moran & Shapiro s Fifth Edition of Fundamentals of Engineering Thermodynamics presents a comprehensive treatment of engineering thermodynamics. The text helps you develop a deeper and more complete understanding of the subject.

Here s how Moran & Shapiro s approach works:

• New Thermodynamics in the News items tie reports from the popular press, such as fuel cells, to concepts covered in the text.
• A strong problem–solving methodology encourages readers to develop an orderly approach to problem solving, think systematically, and reduce typical errors.
• End–of–chapter materials builds problem–solving skills in three modes: Conceptual (Exercises: Things Engineers Think About); Skill building (Problems: Developing Engineering Skills); and Exploration (Design and Open–Ended Problems: Exploring Engineering Practice).
• Online study guide, including key concepts summaries and additional homework problems with answers and selected solutions, offer tools to test your understanding of chapter material.
• Design/Open–Ended Problems provide brief design experiences that provide opportunities to think creatively, apply constraints, and consider alternatives.
• Thorough development of the second law, featuring the entropy production concept and energy analysis, provide a state–of–the–art introduction to second law analysis.
• IT: Interactive Thermodynamics software (purchased separately) features property data calculation, systems modeling, and what if calculation capabilities, so you can explore more realistic thermodynamic system behavior.
• ThermoNet tutorials for basic engineering concepts feature animations, pop–up quizzes, and additional worked examples. Available through the book s website.
