Book Description

September 17, 2002 0471204900 978-0471204909
This survey of thermal systems engineering combines coverage of thermodynamics, fluid flow, and heat transfer in one volume. Developed by leading educators in the field, this book sets the standard for those interested in the thermal-fluids market. Drawing on the best of what works from market leading texts in thermodynamics (Moran), fluids (Munson) and heat transfer (Incropera), this book introduces thermal engineering using a systems focus, introduces structured problem-solving techniques, and provides applications of interest to all engineers.

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect for introduction to thermal systems, December 4, 2005
By 
T. K. Vogel (San Diego, CA USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Introduction to Thermal Systems Engineering: Thermodynamics, Fluid Mechanics, and Heat Transfer (Hardcover)
This book is written by the leaders in each of the three areas of thermal systems engineering and it really shows. Keep in mind this is an introductory book and does not cover every part of each topic, but for an introductory class it is perfect! Concepts are easy to understand with very good supporting examples. I would highly recommend this book to anyone needing a brush up or a good introduction to thermal systems.

This review is from: Introduction to Thermal Systems Engineering: Thermodynamics, Fluid Mechanics, and Heat Transfer (Hardcover)
This was the text for my course so i had to buy it but that doesnt mean that its not one of the most amazing books in all the world! I have been just reading through it as though its a thrilling novel and i am absolutly in love with it and now subsequently thermodynamics... Paid for fast shipping (which is flippin expensive) but i got it within like 3 days maybe and i'm in New Zealand so i was happy with that.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Book!!, September 1, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Introduction to Thermal Systems Engineering: Thermodynamics, Fluid Mechanics, and Heat Transfer (Hardcover)
My teacher was sucky, so I relied very heavily on the textbook. Also, having the solutions manual helped a great deal. I was able to purchase the solutions manual by emailing zmanual(at)gmail(dot)com. Best of luck.
