Fundamentals of Engineering Thermodynamics 8th Edition by Michael J. Moran, Howard N. Shapiro, Daisie D. Boettner and Margaret B. Bailey teaches students how to be effective problem solvers. Now in its eighth edition, this market-leading text emphasizes the authors’ collective teaching expertise as well as the signature methodologies that have taught entire generations of engineers worldwide.
Integrated throughout the text are real-world applications that emphasize the relevance of thermodynamics principles to some of the most critical problems and issues of today, including a wealth of coverage of topics related to energy and the environment, biomedical/bioengineering, and emerging technologies.
The presentation of chemical availability has been extended by a cutting- edge discussion of standard chemical availability. Design applications and problems have been updated to include economic considerations. Environmental topics have also been expanded and updated. The new version of Interactive Thermodynamics (IT) is a powerful windows-based software program that now includes equation-solver, printing, graphing, data retrival and simulation capabilities.
This book provides a comprehensive and rigorous treatment of engineering thermodynamics from the classical viewpoint, as a basis for subsequent courses in fluid mechanics and heat transfer, and as preparation for the use of thermodynamics in professional practice. Enough material is provided for an introductory course in engineering thermodynamics and for a follow-up course dealing mainly with applications. For this edition, over 40% of the approximately 1,300 end-of-chapter problems have been revised or replaced. A background in elementary physics and calculus is assumed.
