Prof. Newman is considered one of the great chemical engineers of his time. His reputation derives from his mastery of all phases of the subject matter, his clarity of thought, and his ability to reduce complex problems to their essential core elements. He has been teaching undergraduate and graduate core subject courses at the University of California, Berkeley (UC Berkeley), USA, since joining the faculty in 1966. His method is to write out, in long form, everything he expects to convey to his class on a subject on any given day. He has maintained and updated his lecture notes from notepad to computer throughout his career. This book is an exact reproduction of those notes. The book presents concepts needed to define single- and multi-component systems, starting with the Gibbs function. It helps readers derive concepts of entropy and temperature and the development of material properties of pure substances. It acquaints them with applications of thermodynamics, such as cycles, open systems, and phase transitions, and eventually leads them to concepts of multiple-component systems, in particular, chemical and phase equilibria. It clearly presents all concepts that are necessary for engineers.

The present book covers essential material in thermodynamics. It is aimed at those students who desire a fundamental understanding of the subject of thermodynamics and provides them with the ability of solving engineering problems related to thermodynamics. Part I, consisting of Lectures 1 and 2, provides a brief overview of the subject of thermodynamics, the generality, the applicability, and how it's related to the composition of matter. Dimensions and units of various quantities, the definitions of a system, the boundary, the surroundings, and constraints, as well as thermodynamic states, properties, and processes are also introduced. Part II, consisting of Lectures 3 through 9, covers in more detail properties, laws, systems and processes. Various properties of matter are discussed along with the concepts of energy, work, heat, and mass and energy balances in steady state and transient analyses. The second law of thermodynamics is also introduced and entropy relations for compressible, incompressible, and ideal gas systems are provided. In addition, entropy change in systems, and efficiencies of isentropic processes of various components utilized in thermodynamic cycles are also discussed. Part III consists of Lectures 10 through 14 and deals with thermodynamic cycles. Basic concepts, such as the maximum work theorem, the Carnot engine and its efficiency, heat engine cycles, the endoreversible engine, vapor power cycles, gas power cycles, and refrigeration and heat pump cycles are covered. Part IV, consisting of Lectures 15 through 17, deals with the subjects of mixtures and psychrometrics. Basic concepts, the evaluation of compositions, the Dalton and Amagat models, mixture properties, psychrometric charts, air conditioning systems, and their processes are discussed. Offering a concise overview of the most critical concepts of thermodynamics, the volume is ideal for those new to the field or requiring a refresher.

Thermodynamics and Statistical Mechanics deals with the method of thermodynamic potentials, the four Gibbsian potentials, and Boltzmann's statistics. The book reviews the general considerations of thermodynamics, such as the first and second laws of thermodynamics, the van der Waals equation, and Nernst's third law of thermodynamics. The text also discusses the application of thermodynamics to special systems, the theory of phase equilibria, the electromotive force of galvanic cells, and the thermodynamics of near-equilibrium processes. The book explains the equation of state of a perfect gas, the Maxwellian velocity distribution, and the statistical significance of the constants in van der Waal's equation. The text notes that the states of equilibrium can be treated in a simple manner compared to complex methods used in problems connected with irreversible processes. The book explains that the atoms in a molecule are capable of performing small vibrations about their position of equilibrium as they possess both kinetic and potential energy. The text also discusses the quantization of vibrational energy and rotational energy. The book can be helpful for students of physics, thermodynamics, and related subjects. It can also be used by instructors in advanced physics.

The present book covers material in intermediate thermodynamics. It is aimed at those students who desire a deep fundamental understanding of the subject of thermodynamics. It is assumed that the student is familiar with differential equations and has completed a first course in thermodynamics. The material covered in the book is in four parts. In Part I, consisting of Lectures 1 and 2, we cover fundamental concepts of thermodynamics. These lectures provide a brief overview of the subject of thermodynamics, the generality, the applicability, how it's related to the composition of matter, and the laws of thermodynamics. Dimensions and units of various quantities, the definitions of a system, the boundary, the surroundings, constraints, and processes, as well as thermodynamic postulates which lead to the definition of entropy, the fundamental relation, and the energy minimum principle are also introduced in these lectures.Part II, consisting of Lectures 3 through 9, covers the theoretical basis of thermodynamics. Lecture 3 discusses the fundamental relation, the Euler equation, the equations of state, as well as the equilibrium state. Lecture 4 discusses the Gibbs-Duhem relation, molar coordinates, the ideal gas, generalized compressibility, and the virial equations of state. Lecture 5 provides an application of basic concepts to obtain the fundamental relation of the van der Waals fluid. Additional forms of the fundamental relation which are more useful in applications (the Helmholtz free energy, the enthalpy, and the Gibbs free energy), obtained via Legendre transformations, and a discussion on the chemical potential are given in Lectures 6 and 7. Lecture 8 discusses the number of properties necessary to fully describe a system, and the relationship between Maxwell relations and the restrictions on such properties. Lastly, Lecture 9 discusses the concept of thermodynamic stability and the Le Chatelier and Le Chatelier-Braun principles. Part III consists of Lectures 10 through 14 and deals with phase transitions, mixtures, solutions, and excess functions. Phases, phase transitions, latent heat, the Clapeyron equation, and the Gibbs phase rule are covered in Lectures 10 and 11. Lectures 12 and 13 deal with ideal and non-ideal gas mixtures and solutions. Lecture 14 provides a discussion of the concept of mixing and excess functions. Part IV, consisting of Lectures 15 through 17, covers chemical reactions and combustion. Lecture 15 deals with chemical reactions of ideal gases, the equilibrium constant, the law of mass action, the energy of formation, and the heat release from reactions. Lectures 16 and 17 cover fundamental concepts of combustion including the mass and energy balances in open and closed systems.Two appendices are included to aid the understanding of some fundamental concepts. Appendix A discusses the relationship between the macroscopic view of thermodynamics and the microscopic mechanical view and how the two are connected through statistics. Appendix B provides a clear explanation of Legendre transformations which are necessary to obtain alternate forms of the fundamental relation.Offering a concise overview of the most critical concepts of thermodynamics, the volume is ideal for those desiring a deeper understanding of the subject.

This textbook facilitates students’ ability to apply fundamental principles and concepts in classical thermodynamics to solve challenging problems relevant to industry and everyday life. It also introduces the reader to the fundamentals of statistical mechanics, including understanding how the microscopic properties of atoms and molecules, and their associated intermolecular interactions, can be accounted for to calculate various average properties of macroscopic systems. The author emphasizes application of the fundamental principles outlined above to the calculation of a variety of thermodynamic properties, to the estimation of conversion efficiencies for work production by heat interactions, and to the solution of practical thermodynamic problems related to the behavior of non-ideal pure fluids and fluid mixtures, including phase equilibria and chemical reaction equilibria. The book contains detailed solutions to many challenging sample problems in classical thermodynamics and statistical mechanics that will help the reader crystallize the material taught. Class-tested and perfected over 30 years of use by nine-time Best Teaching Award recipient Professor Daniel Blankschtein of the Department of Chemical Engineering at MIT, the book is ideal for students of Chemical and Mechanical Engineering, Chemistry, and Materials Science, who will benefit greatly from in-depth discussions and pedagogical explanations of key concepts. Distills critical concepts, methods, and applications from leading full-length textbooks, along with the author’s own deep understanding of the material taught, into a concise yet rigorous graduate and advanced undergraduate text; Enriches the standard curriculum with succinct, problem-based learning strategies derived from the content of 50 lectures given over the years in the Department of Chemical Engineering at MIT; Reinforces concepts covered with detailed solutions to illuminating and challenging homework problems.

Excerpt from Lectures on Thermodynamics: Introduction: The Principles of Thermodynamics One of the most fundamental concepts employed in the study of physical phenomena 'is the concept of the tempera ture* of a body. We distinguish, through touch, between 'hot' and 'cold' bodies. A block of ice feels 'cold' the air in the evening feels 'cool'; a cup of tea feels 'lukewarm'; We boil it, and it feels hot.' We thus establish a qualitative scale of the degrees of hotness or 'temperatures' of bodies. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
