There are many thermodynamics introductory texts on the market, yet most provide a presentation that is at a level to high for those new to the field This second edition of Thermodynamics continues to provide an accessible introduction to thermodynamics, which maintains an appropriate rigor to prepare newcomers for subsequent, more advanced topics. The book presents a logical methodology for solving problems in the context of conservation laws and property labels. The author elucidates the terms around which thermodynamics has historically developed such as work, temperature, entropy, and energy. Using a pedagogical approach that builds from basic principles to laws and eventually corollaries of the law, the text will enable students to think in clear and correct thermodynamic terms as well as solve realengineering problems.
