Introduction to Chemical Engineering
Thermodynamics
7th Edition in SI Units
J.M. Smith, H. C. Van Ness and M.M. Abbott
ISBN 9780071270557 • MHID 0071270558 • 2009 • Softcover • 800pp
This book is a comprehensive presentation of the subject of thermodynamics
from a chemical engineering perspective. The text provides a thorough
coverage of the principles of thermodynamics and details their application
to chemical processes. The chapters are logically organized, and include
numerous realistic illustrations, examples, and end-of-chapter problems.
Understanding does require reasonable diligence and motivation on the
part of the reader, but every effort has been made to facilitate the learning
process.
Features
Of the more than 740 end-of-chapter problems, 20% are new to this
edition.
The book is adaptable to both one- and two-term courses, and
material can be chosen to accommodate curricular constraints.
Material of special importance to chemical engineers including
applications of equations of state, chemical-reaction equilibrium, and
phase equilibria, are given comprehensive coverage.
The treatment of the vital, but difficult topic of phase equilibria
progresses from qualitative discussion to simple models for vapor/
liquid equilibrium, to more advanced and specialized applications.
The final chapter is a self-contained introduction to molecular
thermodynamics.
Fundamentals of Thermal-Fluid Sciences
3rd Edition in SI Units
Yunus A. Çengel, Robert H. Turner and John M. Cimbala
ISBN 9780071266314 • MHID 0071266313 • 2008 • Softcover • 1081pp
• Supplement ISBN 9780071275330
The third edition of Fundamentals of Thermal-Fluid Sciences presents a
balanced coverage of thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, and heat transfer
packaged in a manner suitable for use in introductory thermal sciences
courses. By emphasizing the physics and underlying physical phenomena
involved, the text gives students practical examples that develop their
understanding of the theory underpinning thermal sciences. All the
popular features of the previous edition are retained in this edition.
Features
Learning Objectives: Each chapter begins with an overview of the
material to be covered and chapter-specific learning objectives which
introduce the material and set goals.
An Early Introduction to the First Law of Thermodynamics: Chapter 2
establishes a general understanding of energy, mechanisms of energy
transfer, and the concepts of energy balance, thermo-economics, and
conversion efficiency.
