TY - BOOK AU - Simonson,John TI - Thermodynamics T2 - Foundations of engineering SN - 0333555759 (paperback) PY - 1993/// CY - Hampshire PB - Palgrave Macmillan N2 - This text is another title in the "Foundations of Engineering" series, and uses the "programme approach" of Ken Stroud in "Engineering Mathematics". It presents the first two years of undergraduate thermodynamics in a step-by-step format, allowing self-paced study. Worked examples are integrated within each chapter, and further unworked questions allow the student to evaluate their grasp of the material and reinforce the key concepts of each chapter. As a complement to the book, thermodynamic properties of steam, and a number of other substances, including common refrigerants, are available on disk for use with personal computers. The disk is available from Dr I.K. Smith, Department of Mechanical Engineering, City University, London UR - http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0333555759/chopaconline-20 ER -
