Thermodynamics and Energy Conversion
This textbook gives a thorough treatment of engineering thermodynamics with applications to classical and modern energy conversion devices.
Some emphasis lies on the description of irreversible processes, such as friction, heat transfer and mixing and the evaluation of the related work losses. Better use of resources requires high efficiencies therefore the reduction of irreversible losses should b...
