N2  - "Aspiring engineers have long needed a concise text that prepares them to use thermodynamics in professional practice. Practicing engineers often need a handy thermodynamics reference - one that foregoes clutter and unnecessary details but furnishes the essential facts and methods." "Thermodynamics for Engineers builds a solid foundation for advanced engineering studies and practice. It exposes readers to the "big picture" of thermodynamics and its streamlined presentation allows glimpses into important concepts and methods rarely offered by texts at this level."; "Features: companion thermodynamic tables available on the Internet limit cumbersome manual interpolation and allow readers to expand the tables; the introduction of logic diagrams to help readers understand the logical steps used in solving thermodynamics problems; a chapter on heat transfer that offers exposure to a subject that non-mechanical engineers may not get elsewhere; and the second law ratio to measure thermal environmental impact to acquaint readers with a parameter rarely mentioned in other texts."--BOOK JACKET
