Thermodynamics: An Engineering Approach

Product Information

In recognition of the fact that English units are still widely used in some industries, both SI and English units are used in this text, with an emphasis on SI. This change ensures consistent use of the symbols x, X, and X for the specific, total, and time rate of exergy, in parallel to their counterparts e, E, and Ė for energy and s, S, and S for entropy.

EES also allows the user to enter property data or functional relationships with lookup tables, with internal functions written with EES, or with externally compiled functions written in Pascal, C, C++, or Fortran.T his text is an abbreviated version of standard thermodynamics, fluid mechanics , and heat transfer texts, covering topics that engineering students are most likely to need in their professional lives. The relations above reinforce that during an actual process, mass and energy are conserved, entropy is generated, and exergy is destroyed. Pinar Menguc, University of Kentucky; Alan Parkinson, Brigham Young University; Larry Simmons, University of Portland; and James Strozier, University of Utah. Answers to selected problems are presented immediately following the problems for convenience to the students.

Recent information dealing with new developments in thermodynamic systems, such as the new generation of gas turbines with remarkable efficiencies, is incorporated throughout the text.Boles is Professor Emeritus of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at North Carolina State University, where he earned his PhD in mechanical engineering and is an Alumni Distinguished Professor. A most noteworthy change in this edition is the addition of “Check Your Understanding CYU” questions at the end of most sections. Some end-of-chapter problems in the text have been modified and some problems were replaced by new ones. Some of his textbooks have been translated into Chinese (Long and Short Forms), Japanese, Korean, Spanish, French, Portuguese, Italian, Turkish, Greek, Tai, and Basq. We are also grateful to our colleagues in many other countries who undertook the relentless task of translating the second edition of this book into several languages including Chinese, Greek, Japanese, Korean, Spanish, and Turkish.
