Thermodynamics and Exergy Analysis for Engineers by Rajinder Pal (English) Paper

Description: Thermodynamics and Exergy Analysis for Engineers by Rajinder Pal This textbook presents material in order and style such that it is easily comprehensible to second and third year engineering students. FORMAT Paperback LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description This book consists of eighteen chapters. Chapter one presents introductory concepts and definitions along with a brief discussion of historical development of thermodynamics. Chapters two and three cover the first law of thermodynamics. Chapter two is devoted to the first law for control mass or closed systems and Chapter three is devoted to the first law for control volume or open (flow) systems. The second law of thermodynamics for closed systems is presented in Chapter four. Chapter five is devoted to the second law for open systems with applications. Thermodynamics of compressible and incompressible flows in ducts and pipes is covered in depth in Chapter six. Chapter seven is devoted to estimation of volumetric and thermodynamic properties of fluids. Chapters eight to ten provide in-depth coverage of power cycles, internal combustion engines, and refrigeration cycles. Chapters eleven and twelve are devoted to vapor-liquid phase equilibrium of ideal and non-ideal systems. Chapter thirteen provides in-depth coverage of chemical reaction equilibrium. Work and entropy analysis of closed and open systems is presented along with the Gouy-Stodola theorem in Chapter fourteen. Due to the importance of exergy and exergy analysis in many practical applications, the last four chapters (Chapters fifteen to eighteen) are fully devoted to this topic. The available textbooks in thermodynamics rarely provide satisfactory coverage of exergy and exergy analysis of processes.Each chapter begins with the student learning outcomes. Near the end of each chapter, a tutorial session is included where a number of problems are solved to illustrate the applications of concepts and theory covered in the chapter. Notation is included separately in each chapter. For the benefit of students, practice problems are included at the end of each chapter.For more details, please Author Biography Rajinder Pal is a Professor in the Department of Chemical Engineering at the University of Waterloo since 1991, and a Fellow of the Chemical Institute of Canada. He received degrees in Chemical Engineering from I.I.T. Kanpur (B.Tech. 1981) and the University of Waterloo (Ph.D. 1987), followed by a post-doctoral fellowship at the University of Alberta. His research interests include complex fluid rheology, interfacial and transport phenomena, physical properties of composite materials, and non-equilibrium thermodynamics. He has published more than 150 refereed journal articles, 4 books, and 5 book chapters on these and related subjects, including 8 papers in engineering education journals. He has taught over ten different undergraduate and graduate courses related to equilibrium staged separation processes, fluid mechanics, heat and mass transfer, physical chemistry and thermodynamics.Professor Pal has been the recipient of several awards including the University of Waterloo prestigious Distinguished Teacher Award (2020), Sandford Fleming Foundation Teaching Excellence Award (twice 2001 and 2017), an Outstanding Performance Award from the University of Waterloo (2009), and the Syncrude Canada Innovation Award from the Canadian Society for Chemical Engineering (1998). He is a Fellow of the Chemical Institute of Canada since 1999. He serves on several journal editorial boards and was an Associate Editor of the Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering for twelve years. He is a registered Professional Engineer in the province of Ontario, Canada.
