Advanced Thermodynamics for EngineersAuthor(s): D. Winterbone, Ali Turan\nFormat: Paperback\nPublisher: Elsevier Science & Technology, United Kingdom\nImprint: Butterworth-Heinemann Ltd\nISBN-13: 9780444633736, 978-0444633736\nSynopsis\nAdvanced Thermodynamics for Engineers, Second Edition introduces the basic concepts of thermodynamics and applies them to a wide range of technologies. Authors Desmond Winterbone and Ali Turan also include a detailed study of combustion to show how the chemical energy in a fuel is converted into thermal energy and emissions; analyze fuel cells to give an understanding of the direct conversion of chemical energy to electrical power; and provide a study of property relationships to enable more sophisticated analyses to be made of irreversible thermodynamics, allowing for new ways of efficiently covering energy to power ([url] solar energy, fuel cells). Worked examples are included in most of the chapters, followed by exercises with solutions. By dev.
