Synopsis

This solutions manual is included with the main text, which is primarily intended as a guide in applying thermodynamics as a problem-solving tool for a broad range of materials applications, and is suited as either a text for an introductory course in thermodynamics or as a study guide to the solution of practical problems. For the occasional user, thermodynamics may be most useful for applications for applications where approximate numbers, quickly obtained, are all that is required. This may be particularly useful for graduate students working in materials-related areas, but who are not involved in the generation of the thermodynamic data, yet not produce thermodynamic data as an objective in itself. For the corrosion engineer, the concept of potential is very important in corrosion control as it relates to the Nernst equation. For the mechanical engineer, the solution to the gas-phase equilibria is approached with the closed-loop analysis, which is analogous to cyclic analysis in mechanical systems. The book reviews thermodynamic fundamentals and systematically introduces these fundamentals into a problem-solving closed-loop approach.

The problems provided cover a broad range of applications specific to metallic systems, non-metallics, rock and mineral systems and electrochemistry.
