Simulation with Entropy in Engineering Thermodynamics: Understanding Matter and Systems with Bondgraphs

It is with great pleasure that we present this book to the public. In principle it is about thermodynamics, especially the simulation of thermofluid systems. In popular opinion, thermodynamics is considered to be highly abstract and difficult to comprehend with its many symbols. We endeavor to show the reader how simple and beautiful thermodynamics really is. To achieve this simplicity we apply two innovations: Forus,entropyisasubstance-likeconcept,akindof thermalcharge,analogous to the wel...
