Introduction To Thermodynamics and Heat Transfer
Product Description Introduction to Thermodynamics and Heat Transfer provides balanced coverage of the basic concepts of thermodynamics and heat transfer.Together with the clear an numerous illustrations, student-friendly writing style, and manageable math, this is an ideal text for an introductory thermal science course for non-mechanical engineering majors. Continuing in the tradition of Cengel/Boles: Thermodynamics, this lavishly illustrated text presents the key topics in thermodynamics and heat transfer, in a highly accessible student-friendly fashion. The flexibly organized text can accommodate courses that spend anywhere from 1/3rd to 2/3rds or more of class time on thermodynamics and the rest on key heat transfer topics. The intuitive approach is supported by a wealth of physical explanations and analogies that draw parallels between the subject and the students' everyday experiences. Many of the 150 thoroughly worked out examples and almost 2,000 real-world problems, highlight applications from civil and electrical engineering. Over 1,000 illustrations help students visualize concepts,This approach and contents make this text an ideal resource for introduction to thermodynamics and/or thermal science courses intended for non-mechanical engineering majors. About The Author Yunus A. Çengel (Turkey) is Professor Emeritus of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Nevada, Reno. Reader Reviews This review is from: Introduction To Thermodynamics and Heat Transfer (Hardcover) Very difficult reading. You must navigate pages of "fluff" reading just to get to an important point. Skip the wording and get to the point please!!! The example problems do not even start to prepare you for the chapter problems.....never mind the review problems!! This book will give you a very basic idea of what is going on but you must spend too much time re-reading most sections to understand what this guy is talking about. Comment | | (Report this)
