The mathematics (calculus) needed has been kept to a minimum so that all students can follow the developments.Learning outcomes are listed at the start of each chapter and identified as completed at relevant places in the text, followed by a summary at the end of each chapter. Short concept quizzes included at the completion of each outcome to test the students. Real-world parallels are drawn at appropriate places to help students relate to abstract concepts. Equal emphasis is laid on qualitative and quantitative coverage, theory and application, and core concepts and current trends. Solved examples illustrate clear problem solving methodology and focus on real-world applications of thermodynamics concepts. Sustainability and Bio-related themes will run throughout the text making the text more relevant to current day students. FE Type problems will be included at the end of each chapter, these will help students prepare for certification exams and aid instructors in short quizzesEnd-of-Chapter exercises will serve to check the students’ understanding and provide instructors with an extensive set of homework and exam questions. The text can be ordered using SI units throughout, if desired. Includes Mindtap which is an interactive, customizable and complete learning solution.
