About this title

Synopsis

Chemical and Process Thermodynamics is an example-rich guide to chemical engineering thermodynamics that focuses on current techniques, new applications, and today's revolutionary computerized tools. Coverage includes the 1st and 2nd Law of Thermodynamics; fluid behavior, thermodynamic networks, heat effects, equilibrium and stability, the thermodynamics of pure substances; phase and chemical equilibrium; thermodynamic analysis of processes; physicomechanical processes, and more. The companion CD-ROM contains nine executive programs and three spreadsheets for carrying out professional-level calculations; Polymath numerical analysis software; the WASP computerized steam table; Equations of State software for visualizing thermodynamic processes as 3D PVT diagrams; and much more. The computing resources are not just useful adjuncts; their use is integrated into the text and amply illustrated with worked examples. A new chapter on the philosophy and practice of modeling thermodynamic systems has also been added.
