5.0 out of 5 stars A fundamental text !, August 7, 2004

Hiram Gomez Pardo (Valencia, Venezuela) - See all my reviews
(HALL OF FAME REVIEWER) (TOP 1000 REVIEWER) (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Introduction to Chemical Engineering Thermodynamics (Hardcover)

As Chemical Engineering demands from you three Thermodynamics , this book is for you . I do not remember any other book so well written and with so clear explanation about the fugacity concepts for instance . The solved problems about the first and second law of Thermodynamics are extraordinary .
After you are engaged with this text you will forget your teacher without missing him .

3.0 out of 5 stars A good intro to thermo, June 26, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Introduction to Chemical Engineering Thermodynamics (Hardcover)

This is a good starter book for an intro course in Thermo for Chemical Engineers. Aside from being and extremely boring book to both read and look at, the material is presented well. Heat and Refrigeration cycles are somewhat shallow in detail. The examples throughout the book are not that great, either, but they get the job done. I don't think it is worth the ...price tag (Hint: buy a used one). I kept mine because it has some useful information (i.e., steam tables, critial properties, etc.)

4.0 out of 5 stars Good book for students of Chemical Engineering, August 16, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Intro to Chemical Engineering Thermodynamics (Hardcover)

Ideal for undergraduate thermodynamics course. Readers should have a thorough understanding of integral calculus and differential equations as well as material/mass balances. Excellent steam tables (English and SI units) and chemical property tables. Each chapter includes several example problems, but answers to the exercises are not provided.

Good, mainly in Appendix ( steam properties,etc). But I have difficulty in doing your task, I'm very glad if there is a problem-solving for that. Thanks !!!
