Answers to selected problems are provided on the student companion website that accompanies this book.Ĭ Because one purpose of this book is to help you prepare to use thermodynamics in engineering practice, design considerations related to thermodynamics are included.
The problems are also classified under headings to expedite the process of selecting review problems to solve. The problems are sequenced to coordinate with the subject matter and are listed in increasing order of difficulty. They allow you to gain a deeper understanding of the text material, think critically, and test yourself.Ĭ A large number of end-of-chapter problems also are provided under the headingĬ PROBLEMS: DEVELOPING ENGINEERING SKILLS. They open withĮxercises c Each chapter has a set of discussion questions under the headingĬ EXERCISES: THINGS ENGINEERS THINK ABOUT that may be done on an individual or small-group basis. We encourage you to study these examples, including the accompanying comments.Ĭ Each solved example concludes with a list of the Skills Developed in solving the example and a QuickQuiz that allows an immediate check of understanding.Ĭ Less formal examples are given throughout the text. Other core features of this book that facilitate your study and contribute to your understanding include:Įxamples c Numerous annotated solved examples are provided that feature the solution methodology presented in Sec. Horizons link subject matter to emerging technologies and thought-provoking issues, as in the discussion of nanotechnology on p. BIOCONNECTIONS discussions tie topics to applications in bioengineering and biomedicine, as in the discussion of control volumes of living things and their organs on p.
Contemporary issues related to thermodynamics are introduced throughout the text with three unique features: ENERGY & ENVIRONMENT discussions explore issues related to energy resource use and the environment, as in the discussion of hybrid vehicles on p. Boxed material within sections of the book allows you to explore selected topics in greater depth, as in the boxed discussion of properties and nonproperties on p. Fundamental concepts and associated equations within each section lay the foundation for applications of engineering thermodynamics provided in solved examples, end-of-chapter problems and exercises, and accompanying discussions.
