Chemistry of Combustion; 11.1 Bond energies and heats of formation11.2 Energy of formationAlthough the basic theories of thermodynamics are adequately covered by a number of existing texts, there is little literature that addresses more advanced topics. In this comprehensive work the author redresses this balance, drawing on his twenty-five years of experience of teaching thermodynamics at undergraduate and postgraduate level, to produce a definitive text to cover thoroughly, advanced syllabuses.The book introduces the basic concepts which apply over the whole range of new technologies, considering: a new approach to cycles, enabling their irreversibility to be taken into aThermodynamicsHeat engineeringThermodynamics.Heat engineering.621.402/1Winterbone D.
