title: Understanding Engineering Thermo
author:  Octave Levenspiel 
description: Thermodynamics, the branch of physics dealing with the reversible transformation of heat into other forms of energy, has traditionally been one of the most conceptually difficult topics to comprehend and use intelligently. This book presents an introduction to the basic concepts of thermodynamics using simple statements and intuitive proofs. Covers all the basic principles of thermodynamics, including the first law of thermodynamics, potential energy, kinetic energy, chemical and nuclear reactions, engineering fluids, the second law, work from heat, and applications. For engineers and technicians in many diverse fields.
