This is the first paperback edition of a classic and popular text that has gone through some 14 printings since its first hardcover issue in 1941. The author illustrates his material with applications that will especially appeal to the chemical and mechanical engineering student, but the emphasis throughout is on basic principles. For this reason, the book remains essentially up-to-date: although some teachers may wish to supplement its use with more recent illustrative applications, its solid presentation of long-established thermodynamic applications is of course invariant over time.  The ordering of the material into chapters and the "rate of flow" of its development from one chapter to the next are carefully controlled in the interests of continuity and of the student new to the subject. But for review or study by more advanced students, the mechanics of the chapters have been made as independent as possible—each has its own bibliography and list of symbols used. There are also problems after each chapter, and this paperback edition inclues, for the first time, a section containing the answers.

An outstanding text for both undergraduate and graduate courses, as well as a reference treatise in thermodynamics, this volume provides a rigorous and general exposition of the laws and corollaries that apply to classical, quantal, or relativistic systems and to both equilibrium and nonequilibrium states. Numerous applications to diverse physical phenomena are included.

Steam Tables Thermodynamic Properties of Water Including Vapor, Liquid, and Solid Phases —English Units By Joseph H. Keenan, M.I.T.; Frederick G. Keyes, M.I.T.; Philip G. Hill, Queen’s University; and Joan G. Moore, M.I.T. During the past decade a substantial body of experimental data on thermodynamic and transport properties of water has been produced and published by research groups in the USSR, Great Britain, Czechoslovakia, Canada and the United States. This book presents the results of a new and independent correlation of all this new thermodynamic data and all previously existing data. It is a new work to replace the well-known and widely used Keenan and Keyes tables. The tables in this new book are based upon a unique accomplishment. For the first time the whole body of high-quality experimental data on liquid and vapor water has been faithfully represented by a single fundamental equation. From this equation all thermodynamic properties can be calculated for any state. This equation is believed to extrapolate dependably in temperature from the upper limit of precise measurement (about 1500°F) to about 2400°F. Because of the increasing importance to both the practicing engineer and the student of a wide variety of problems that cannot be approximated by steady-flow idealization, internal energies are tabulated for all states: saturated liquid and vapor, compressed liquid, and superheated vapor. A reasonable range of metastable states is covered as extensions of the superheated-vapor and compressed-liquid tables. The Mollier and temperature-entropy charts are extended to substantially higher pressures and temperatures. This book also includes a table for ice-vapor equilibrium, an improved chart of isentropic exponents, charts of Prandtl number, a set of charts of heat capacity of liquid and vapor, and extensive tables of viscosity and thermal conductivity reproduced from the documents of the Sixth International Conference on the Properties of Steam. The book features legible type set by a computer-controlled typesetting machine. This results in accuracy, compactness, and convenience.

This revision of Gas Tables not only endows its contents with a higher and more uniform degree of accuracy, but also extends and enhances its practical application. The most recent physical, molecular, and spectroscopic constants were employed in reevaluating the thermodynamic properties of air at low pressures, each of its component gases, and the combustion products of hydrocarbon fuels and several other gaseous substances. Because of the relevance to the energy industries, the thermodynamic properties for combustion products of hydrocarbon fuels with 100 percent theoretical air are included in the tables.

Krieger Pub. Co

This latest edition contains revised tables in international units; the sources of data, methods of calculation, and formats for tabulating the evaluated results remain the same. The property values given in Tables 1 through 24 were reevaluated at selected temperatures in Kelvin (k) and at P=101.325 kPa (1 atm.). The explanatory text "Sources of Data and Methods of Calculation," and the chapter "Examples," is essentially unchanged with minimum adjustment for employing different units for recalculation.

This book presents the results of a new and independent correlation of all existing thermodynamic data as of 1992. It constitutes a complete revision of the Keenan and Keyes Tables of 1936 and an extension of range to 100 MPa and about 1300 degrees C. The tables in this book, given in SI Units, are based on a unique accomplishment. The whole body of high-quality experimental data on liquid and vapor water has been faithfully represented by a single fundamental equation from which all thermodynamic properties can be calculated for any state.
