THIRD EDITION
SI Units Version
R. K. Rajput
Intended as an introductory textbook for “applied” or engineering thermodynamics, or for use
as an up-to-date reference for practicing engineers, this book provides extensive in-text, solved
examples to cover the basic properties of thermodynamics. Pure substances, the fi rst and second
laws, gases, psychrometrics, the vapor, gas, and refrigeration cycles, heat transfer, compressible
fl ow, chemical reactions, fuels, and more are presented in detail and enhanced with practical
applications. This version presents the material using SI Units and has ample material on SI
conversion, steam tables, and a Mollier diagram. The accompanying CD includes a fully func-
tional student version of QuickField software
(widely used in industry) with simulations,
tutorials, etc.
