Preface. - Nomenclature. 1. Introduction and Overview. - Pt. I. Thermodynamics. 2. Basic Concepts of Thermodynamics. 3. Properties of Pure Substances. 4. Energy Transfer by Heat, Work, and Mass. 5. The First Law of Thermodynamics. 6. The Second Law of Thermodynamics. 7. Entropy. 8. Power and Refrigeration Cycles. - Pt. II. Fluid Mechanics. 9. Introduction to Fluid Mechanics. 10. Fluid Statics. 11. Bernoulli, Energy, and Momentum Equations. 12. Flow in Pipes. 13. Flow Over Bodies: Drag and Lift. - Pt. III. Heat Transfer. 14. Mechanisms of Heat Transfer. 15. Steady Heat Conduction 16. Transient Heat Conduction. 17. Forced Convection. 18. Natural Convection. 19. Radiation Heat Transfer. 20. Heat Exchangers. Pt. IV Appendixes. - Appendix 1. Property Tables and Charts (SI Units).- Appendix 2. Property Tables and Charts (English Units). - Appendix 3. Introduction to EES. - Index.
Summary: "Fundamentals of Thermal-Fluid Sciences presents balanced coverage of the three major subject areas comprising introductory thermal-fluid engineering: thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, and heat transfer. This lavisly illustrated text provides a highly intuitive and practical understanding of the material by emphasizing the physics and underlying physical phenomena involved. Using a reader-friendly approach and a converational writing style, the book is self-instructive and entertains while it teaches. It shows that highly technical matter can be communicated effectively using a simple yet precise language." - Back cover.
