Description

Levenspiel (chemical engineering, Oregon State U.), taking pity on the undergraduate puzzling over thermodynamic symbols and squiggles, provides a foundation text for "thermo" study minimizing its abstractions. Concentrating on the first two laws of Thermo, the text presents introductions to work and heat, potential and kinetic energy, chemical and nuclear reacting systems, mechanical engineering, phase equilibrium, and entropy and information. The text includes problems, witty illustrations, theorems, and tables. No bibliography. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
