Integrating computers, software, tutorials, and design problems in a logical and straightforward manner, this significantly revised introductory-level text provides students with a well-rounded understanding of complex concepts and enables them to solve difficult thermodynamics problems more easily. Updated to address the field's latest trends, this edition features an entirely new chapter on compressible flow, along with coverage of a new refrigerant--R-134-a--and numerous sections on environmental factors as they relate to energy systems. The text is supported by more than 100 end-of-chapter questions and includes expanded property software featuring many new properties and substances. Two versions of the text--SI and an English/SI version--are available, as is a fully licensed computer program that enables students to assess and solve thermodynamic problems with greater confidence.
