Applied Thermodynamics for Engineering Technologies By T.D. Eastop and A. McConkey (S.I. Units,5th Edition)

Applied Thermodynamics for Engineering Technologists (S.I. Units, Fifth Edition)
By T.D. Eastop and A. McConkey

Aiming to give students of engineering a thorough grounding in the subject of thermodynamics and the design of thermal plant, this classic text stays comprehensive without sacrificing theoretical rigor, with the emphasis throughout kept firmly on the application of theory to real processes and plant. Completely revised and updated for its fifth edition to reflect modern teaching methods and perspectives, it provides a complete introduction to the principles of thermodynamics for degree-level students across mechanical, aeronautical, chemical, environmental, and energy engineering courses. New to this edition is a section on energy recovery, including pinch technology, along with discussion of ozone-layer thinning caused by CFCs, with examples and problems updated to use refrigerant 134A in place of the previous CFC R12 references. Coverage of energy sources, their uses, and their management has also been expanded, alongside extensive new material on combined heat and power. 

Topics commonly covered include the first and second laws of thermodynamics, working fluids, reversible and irreversible processes, heat engine cycles, mixtures, combustion, steam cycles, gas turbine cycles, nozzles and jet propulsion, rotodynamic machinery, positive displacement machines, reciprocating internal-combustion engines, refrigeration and heat pumps, psychrometry and air-conditioning, heat transfer, and the source, use, and management of energy. 

Key features:

• Updated coverage of energy recovery, pinch technology, and modern refrigerants (R134A)
• Expanded treatment of energy sources, management, and combined heat and power
• Objectives kept consistent across four previous editions, maintaining a strong following in the UK and across the English-speaking world 
• Comprehensive enough to serve as a complete course text rather than a supplementary reference
• Strong grounding in theory paired consistently with real-world plant and process application

Perfect for:

• Degree-level students in mechanical, aeronautical, chemical, environmental, and energy engineering 
• Engineering technology students needing a single comprehensive thermodynamics course text
• Students studying thermal plant design alongside core thermodynamic theory
• Faculty teaching applied thermodynamics across multiple engineering disciplines
