Introduction to Thermal Systems Engineering

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.

Michael J. Moran is the author of Introduction to Thermal Systems Engineering: Thermodynamics, Fluid Mechanics, and Heat Transfer, published by Wiley. Howard N. Shapiro is the author of Introduction to Thermal Systems Engineering: Thermodynamics, Fluid Mechanics, and Heat Transfer, published by Wiley.
