Product Description

Product Description

Applied Thermodynamics for Engineering Technologists provides a complete introduction to the principles of thermodynamics for degree level students on courses in mechanical, aeronautical, chemical, environmental and energy engineering and engineering science courses.

The fifth edition of this classic text for applied courses has been completely revised and updated to take account of modern teaching methods and perspectives, with the emphasis placed on the application of theory to real processes and plant.

New for this edition is a section on energy recovery, including pinch technology and a discussion of the thinning of the ozone layer due to the use of CFCs. Examples and problems using the refrigerant 134A replace the previous references to CFC R12.

In addition, the discussion of energy sources, their uses and management, has been expanded and improved and there is now extensive coverage of the combined heat and power section. The material on turbines, compressors, nozzles and propulsion is presented in a more logical sequence but retains important information on the differences between gas and steam turbines. Finally the section on refrigeration gives more prominence to the heat pump and vapour absorption plant.

5.0 out of 5 stars Saved My Life!, 16 Jul 2005
By Paul Johnson - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
Good grief Thermodynamics is difficult. I did an Eletrical and Electronic Engineering degree but in my first year had to study general engineering. Whilst I didn't want to do anything much other than electronics, the first year was OK with the exception of thermodynamics.

Mechanical engineering was OK, manufacturing engineering was OK, materials was OK, thermodynamics I just could not understand no matter what the lecturers threw at me.

In despair before the exam I got hold of this book and it was a lifesaver. It describes concepts from the basics in an incredibly easy way to follow and will take anyone from no knowledge to a decent enough level without too much effort.

Not sure how much value it would be to people who are good at thermodynamics - I scraped through the exam and have never thought of it again!

5.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely essential reading, 26 Feb 2002
This book is probably one of the best engineering books I have ever come across. The author takes his time to explain each concept, before engaging the reader in a series of increasingly complex problems, this is an absolute must for any engineering student who wishes to master thermodynamics

5.0 out of 5 stars Applied Therodymanics by Eastop and McConkey, 17 Jun 2004
By A Customer
I was taught this subject some 30 years ago. Although I have now obtained my PhD(also many years ago)I still refer to this book. As stated by other reviewers it is probably one of the best written books on thermodynamics - a must all students in thermodynamics.
