Fundamentals of Thermodynamics Summary

Fundamentals of Thermodynamics by Claus Borgnakke (University of Michigan)

Now in its seventh edition, Fundamentals of Thermodynamicscontinues to offer a comprehensive and rigorous treatment of classical thermodynamics, while retaining an engineering perspective.With concise, applications-oriented discussion of topics andself-test problems the text encourages students tomonitor their own comprehension. Theseventh edition isupdated with additional examples, homework problems, and illustrations to increase student understanding.

The text lays the groundwork for subsequent studies in fields such as fluid mechanics, heat transfer and statistical thermodynamics, and prepares students to effectively apply thermodynamics in the practice of engineering.
