Understanding Engineering Thermo. Octave Levenspiel
Seller: EL DESVAN ANTIGÜEDADES, Madrid, TO, Spain
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Using everyday English, Dr. Levenspiel first takes a qualitative approach to Thermo, and then shows how to treat the subject quantitatively, using classic examples from the literature to show the power, scope, and utility of the subject. Understanding Engineering Thermo concentrates on a broad-based coverage of the first two laws of Thermo. While not intended to be the last word on the subject, this book provides a lively way to master the foundations of this sometimes dry topic.
