An early introduction to the First Law of Thermodynamics establishes a general understanding of energy, mechanisms of energy transfer, the concept of energy balance, thermo-economics, and conversion efficiency.
Over 400 brand new homework problems which further enhance the already extensive and diverse homework problem sets.
Physical intuition to help students develop a sense of the underlying physical mechanisms and a mastery of solving practical problems that an engineer is likely to face in real world.
