From the Back Cover Understand thermodynamics from an engineer’s perspective
Borgnakke and Sonntag’sFundamentals of Thermodynamicshas long stood as the text of choice for an introduction to the theory and application of thermodynamics.

Updated with additional examples, homework problems, and illustrations to increase student understanding, this new edition:

  • Includes concept check questions within chapters
  • Provides more figures, additional examples, and application sections in each chapter
  • Includes a revised version of CATT software for ease of calculating property data
  • Features the ThermoNet Web Site, with an extensive collection of Internet-based learning resources in engineering thermodynamics at the college level

    Preparing students to effectively apply thermodynamics in the practice of engineering,Fundamentals of Thermodynamics, Seventh Editionlays the groundwork for subsequent success in fields such as fluid mechanics, heat transfer, and statistical thermodynamics.--This text refers to an alternateHardcoveredition.
