N2  - In this second edition we have retained the basic objective of the first edition, to present a comprehensive and rigorous treatment of classical thermodynamics while retaining an engineering perspective and, in doing so, to both lay the groundwork for subsequent studies in such Belds as fluid mechanics, heat transfer, and statistical thermodynamics, and to prepare the student to effectively use thermodynamics in the practice of engineering

We have deliberately directed our presentation to students. New con cepts and definitions are presented in the context where they are first relevant. The first thermodynamic properties to be defined (Chapter 2) are those that can be readily measured: pressure, specific volume, and temperature. In Chapter 3, tables of thermodynamic properties are introduced, but only in regard to these measurable properties. Internal energy and enthalpy are introduced in connection with the first law, entropy with the second law, and the Helmholtz and Gibbs functions in the chapter on availability. Many examples have been included in the book to assist the student in gaining an understanding of thermo-dynamics, and the problems at the end of each chapter have been care-fully sequenced to correlate with the subject matter and provide some progression in difficulty
