Download or read book Basic Engineering Thermodynamics written by P. B. Whalley and published by . This book was released on 1992 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is an introduction to thermodynamics for engineering students. No previous knowledge is assumed. The book covers the first and second laws of thermodynamics and their consequences for engineers. Each topic is illustrated with worked examples and subjects are introduced in a logical order allowing the student to tackle increasingly complex problems as he reads. Problems and selected answers are included. The heart of engineering thermodynamics is the conversion of heat into work. Increasing demands for more efficient conversion, for example to reduce carbon dioxide emissions, are leading to the adoption of new thermodynamic cycles. However the principles of these new cycles are very simple and are subject to the standard laws of thermodynamics as explained in this book.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although the basic theories of thermodynamics are adequately covered by a number of existing texts, there is little literature that addresses more advanced topics. In this comprehensive work the author redresses this balance, drawing on his twenty-five years of experience of teaching thermodynamics at undergraduate and postgraduate level, to produce a definitive text to cover thoroughly, advanced syllabuses. The book introduces the basic concepts which apply over the whole range of new technologies, considering: a new approach to cycles, enabling their irreversibility to be taken into account; a detailed study of combustion to show how the chemical energy in a fuel is converted into thermal energy and emissions; an analysis of fuel cells to give an understanding of the direct conversion of chemical energy to electrical power; a detailed study of property relationships to enable more sophisticated analyses to be made of both high and low temperature plant and irreversible thermodynamics, whose principles might hold a key to new ways of efficiently covering energy to power (e.g. solar energy, fuel cells). Worked examples are included in most of the chapters, followed by exercises with solutions. By developing thermodynamics from an explicitly equilibrium perspective, showing how all systems attempt to reach a state of equilibrium, and the effects of these systems when they cannot, the result is an unparalleled insight into the more advanced considerations when converting any form of energy into power, that will prove invaluable to students and professional engineers of all disciplines.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Heat Engineering: A Text Book of Applied Thermodynamics, for Engineers and Students, in Technical Schools For many years the author has given lectures supplementing the text-books used as a basis for a course in heat engineering. His aim in preparing this book has been to bring together his various notes with statements of the investigations and writings of others to make a complete treatment of the important phases of this subject. In doing this he has given credit to the authors and investigators quoted. Certain of the original sources have been quoted so that the student may learn the use of references. It is hoped that many studying this book will refer to these original papers. The work presupposes a course in theoretical thermodynamics such as that given in the treatises of Wood, Peabody or Goodenough. Because of the difference in symbols, nomenclature or point of view of various authors and to serve for reference or for the derivation of formulæ used in the text, the first chapter of this book has been written. It is not intended that this chapter shall be used as a part of the course for it is an outline only of the thermodynamic theory. It should be used to give a review of the subject or as a basis for the formulæ used. In shaping this chapter the author has been guided by his experience in teaching this subject from many texts. The treatment of availability and entropy has been based on the excellent work on thermodynamics by Goodenough. Numerical problems have been solved at various points in the text to illustrate the principles of the subject and to apply them to actual engineering work: The problems have been solved in detail to give the student one manner of attack as well as an order for the arrangement of computations for clearness. Unless the student can apply the various formulæ and theories he has failed to attain that for which this book was written. In addition to the problems and solutions a series of questions on the various topics of the text and a set of problems illustrating their use have been placed at the end of each chapter. These may be used by the student in preparation of an assignment or by the teacher for blackboard recitations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Applied Thermodynamics for Engineers "Applied Thermodynamics" is a pretty broad title; but it is intended to describe a method of treatment rather than unusual scope. The writer's aim has been to present those fundamental principles which concern the designer no less than the technical student in such a way as to convince of their importance. The vital problem of the day in mechanical engineering is that of the prime mover. Is the steam engine, the gas engine, or the turbine to survive? The internal combustion engine works with the wide range of temperature shown by Carnot to be desirable; but practically its superiority in efficiency is less marked than its temperature range should warrant. In most forms, its entire charge, and in all forms, the greater part of its charge, must be compressed by a separate and thermally wasteful operation. By using liquid or solid fuel, this complication may be limited so as to apply to the air supply only; but as this air supply constitutes the greater part of the combustible mixture, the difficulties remain serious, and there is no present means available for supplying oxygen in liquid or solid form so as to wholly avoid the necessity for compression. The turbine, with superheat and high vacuum, has not yet surpassed the best efficiency records of the reciprocating engine, although commercially its superior in many applications. Like the internal combustion engine, the turbine, with its wide temperature range, has gone far toward offsetting its low efficiency ratio; where the temperature range has been narrow the economy has been low, and when running non-condensing the efficiency of the turbine has compared unfavorably with that of the engine. There is promise of development along the line of attack on the energy losses in the turbine; there seems little to be accomplished in reducing these losses in the engine. The two motors may at any moment reach a parity. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
