Presenting the key principles of thermodynamics from a microscopic
point of view, this book provides engineers with the knowledge they
need to apply thermodynamics and solve engineering challenges at
the molecular level. It clearly explains the concepts of entropy
and free energy, emphasizing key ideas used in equilibrium
applications, whilst stochastic processes, such as stochastic
reaction kinetics, are also covered. It provides a classical
microscopic interpretation of thermodynamic properties, which is
key for engineers, rather than focusing on more esoteric concepts
of statistical mechanics and quantum mechanics. Coverage of
molecular dynamics and Monte Carlo simulations as natural
extensions of the theoretical treatment of statistical
thermodynamics is also included, teaching readers how to use
computer simulations and thus enabling them to understand and
engineer the microcosm. Featuring many worked examples and over 100
end-of-chapter exercises, it is ideal for use in the classroom as
well as for self-study.
