It still points to magnetic North. For the moment.This book focuses on the added value created by interculturality which is the interaction, exchange and integration between people of different cultures. The reflexions are aimed at profit and non-profit organisations who have the ambition to be enriched and strengthened by their cultural diversity.This publication states and illustrates; personal views seek to inspire.

In the textbook efforts have been made to visualize as clearly as possible the main concepts of thermodynamic quantities such as enthalpy and entropy, thus making them more perceivable. Furthermore, intricate formulae in thermodynamics have been discussed as functionally unified sets of formulae to understand their meaning rather than to mathematically derive them in detail.In this textbook, the affinity of irreversible processes, defined by the second law of thermodynamics, has been treated as the main 606 $aThermochemistry 606 $aIrreversible processes 606 $aExergy 615 0$aThermochemistry. 615 0$aIrreversible processes. 615 0$aExergy. 676 $a541.36902462 676 $a541/.36 22 676 $a541.36902462 700 $aSato?$b Norio$0725552 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910956916603321 996 $aChemical energy and exergy$91425586 997 $aUNINA
