Preface :
During teaching of the course of engineering thermodynamics and applied thermodynamics I have felt that the students at the undergraduate level of engineering and technology face difficulty in understanding the concepts of engineering thermodynamics and their applications in the course of applied thermodynamics. Also, the students face great difficulty in referring to the number of text books for different topics. The present book is an effort in the direction of presenting the concepts of engineering thermodynamics and their applications in clear, concise and systematic manner at one place. Presentation is made in very simple and easily understandable language and well supported
with wide ranging illustrations and numerical problems. The subject matter in this book covers the syllabus of the basic and advanced course on engineering thermodynamics/thermal engineering being taught in different institutions and universities across the country. There are total 18 chapters in this book. The initial seven chapters cover the basic course on engineering thermodynamics and remaining chapters cover the advanced course in thermal engineering.
