Discusses the concepts of mechanical, thermal, and thermodynamic
equilibrium and their applications. Covers the molecular basis for
internal energy, entropy, thermodynamic equilibrium, and
reversibility. Enables the reader to model irreversibility and
determine the net loss in performance of a thermal system compared
to an idealized system and approach an ideal one. Demonstrates
entropy as a path independent property by use of reversible heat
engines and reversible heat pumps interacting with a process
between two states, the environment and the reservoir. Covers the
role of reversibility from a thermodynamics standpoint and relates
it to other areas, such as gas dynamics, combustion, propulsion,
power plant engineering, and engines.
