Two new coauthors help update the material and integrate engaging, new problems. Throughout the chapters, they focus on the relevance of thermodynamics to modern engineering problems. Many relevant engineering based situations are also presented to help engineers model and solve these problems. Review: One of my favorite engineering books! - This was by far one of the best engineering books I've ever had. I ended up using this book for much of the semester and thought it was well laid out. I only have positive regards for this book as it helped me get an A in my Thermodynamics class. The tables in the back of the book are quite useful and would be great for any mechanical engineer to take note of, if not keep a copy of the table handy for some future classes. The quality of the authors writing compares to that of my favorite engineering book author Hibbeler. Review: Reliable... - The book arrived on time and in good condition.

Thank you very much! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Book to Learn Fundamentals From *by J***S on June 26, 2013* We had to purchase this book for a Thermodynamics 1 course I took. We only used the first 6 chapters in class, but I grew curious and started to read the other chapters. I will start by giving you the pros and cons of this book: PROS: * Clear layout * Tables in the rear of the book are organized and have a clean layout & use different colors to differentiate units (SI first then English units) * Mini examples during the reading to help you understand concepts * Section problems to use newly acquired skills * At the end of each chapter, there is a section that gives you the most important equations in that chapter * Front of the textbook has conversions by subtype (Force, Pressure, Energy, etc...) and in both units * The book offers problems in both SI and English Units * Aesthetically pleasing * It offers Thermodynamics as a science for different types of engineers (Biomed, Environ, etc...) thus aiding them see what it could be useful for & giving us traditional engineering majors a look at how to apply Thermodynamics outside of our realm of expertise CONS: * The chapters can get long. Like 40-50+ pages long in some cases * Computer methods sometimes occur in the book between concepts. I think it should be reserved at the end of the chapter; not everyone uses those methods * No solutions at the end of the book or in the index * No companion solutions manual * I found that while the textbook reads well, it can sometimes gloss over important concepts so I used the Thermodynamics for Dummies book as a reference * Physically large and heavy (more akin to a tome than a standard textbook) * The person who mentioned it isn't build durably is correct: Mine is starting to show moderate damage in the back cover near the spine. A traditional Thermodynamics class stops short of Exergy (Chapter 7). Chapter 1 is basically a review in Physics/Chemistry: conversions, units, etc... Chapter 2 offers insight into thermometers (types and uses) as well as barometers and their governing equations Chapter 3 begins the 1st Law of Thermodynamics Chapter 4 Begins to talk about non-steady state as well as nozzles, turbines, etc... Chapter 5 starts entropy Chapter 6 Irreversibilities generated internally in a system (i.e. more entropy) Chapter 7 (Not used in my class, but read it anyways) Exergy (it goes into using it for economic purposes) Overall, I would say this book is nice. It gives plenty of reason to use it and I will use it long into my career as a reference book. However, it is pretty obvious that it could benefit from a solutions manual or some answers in a special index. In addition, a companion manual would aid the reader and finally, the Dummies book also shows you how it could have been better streamlined. I understand Thermodynamics is a complicated course, but this book's verbosity can really bog down someone trying to read it and short of drilling through problems, there isn't a way to understand the concepts in-depth and as I said, sadly it has no solutions manual. Thank you for reading and good luck! :) ## Frequently Bought Together - Fundamentals of Engineering Thermodynamics - Fundamentals Of Fluid Mechanics --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.nz/products/2608956-fundamentals-of-engineering-thermodynamics](https://www.desertcart.nz/products/2608956-fundamentals-of-engineering-thermodynamics) --- *Product available on Desertcart New Zealand* *Store origin: NZ* *Last updated: 2026-07-21*
