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.
