Introduction to Thermal and Fluid Engineering combines coverage of
basic thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, and heat transfer for a one-
or two-term course for a variety of engineering majors. The book
covers fundamental concepts, definitions, and models in the context
of engineering examples and case studies. It carefully explains the
methods used to evaluate changes in equilibrium, mass, energy, and
other measurable properties, most notably temperature. It then also
discusses techniques used to assess the effects of those changes on
large, multi-component systems in areas ranging from mechanical,
civil, and environmental engineering to electrical and computer
technologies. Includes a motivational student study guide on
downloadable resources to promote successful evaluation of energy
systems This material helps readers optimize problem solving using
practices to determine equilibrium limits and entropy, as well as
track energy forms and rates of progress for processes in both
closed and open thermodynamic systems. Presenting a variety of
system examples, tables, and charts to reinforce understanding, the
book includes coverage of: How automobile and aircraft engines work
Construction of steam power plants and refrigeration systems Gas
and vapor power processes and systems Application of fluid statics,
buoyancy, and stability, and the flow of fluids in pipes and
machinery Heat transfer and thermal control of electronic
components Keeping sight of the difference between system synthesis
and analysis, this book contains numerous design problems. It would
be useful for an intensive course geared toward readers who know
basic physics and mathematics through ordinary different
