ABOUT THE BOOK
Applied Thermodynamics by Prof.C.P. Arora is suggested as exam reference for studying the following subjects:
Applied Thermodynamics in Mechanical Engineering Semester 4 (Visveswaraya Technological University)
Written with an interdisciplinary approach, this book lays emphasis on the fundamental concepts with the aim of developing a profound conceptual base. It brings out interesting data and considerations involved in actual thermodynamic applications. Carefully devised sequence and integration on topics with step-by-step explanation of fundamentals thereby maintain clarity of concepts. Discusses the practical problems in actual engineering applications. A chapter on combined first and second law application to all practical non-flow and flow processes. Clearly brings out meaning of the term 'system' whether closed or open type. Emphasizes distinction between work in a non-flow process in a closed system (pdV) and work in a flow process in an open system (-Vdp). Numerous illustrative examples class-tested many times over the last eight years both in India and abroad.
