Fundamentals of Engineering Thermodynamics

Now with an even stronger pedagogical framework, Moran and Shapiro's Fifth Edition of Fundamentals of Engineering Thermodynamics (SI Version) presents a comprehensive treatment of engineering thermodynamics, enabling students to develop a deeper, more complete understanding of subject.
Key features:

* Includes worked examples and over 1200 end-of-chapter questions.
* New Thermodynamics in the News items tie reports from the popular press, such as fuel cells, to concepts covered in the text.
* A strong problem solving methodology encourages readers to develop an orderly approach to problem solving, to think systematically and to reduce typical errors.
* End of chapter material builds problem solving skills in three modes: Conceptual (Exercises: Things Engineers Think About); Skill Building (Problems: Developing Engineering Skills); and Exploration (Design and Open-Ended Problems: Exploring Engineering Practice).
* Supplementary material for students and lecturers is provided on an accompanying website.
* Design/Open-Ended Problems provide brief design experiences that provide opportunities to think creatively, apply constraints and consider alternatives.
* Thorough development of the second law, featuring the entropy production concept and exergy analysis, provides a state-of-the-art introduction to second law analysis.
