Applied Chemical Engineering Thermodynamics

Applied Chemical Engineering Thermodynamics provides theundergraduate and graduate student of chemical engineeringwith the basic knowledge, the methodology and the referenceshe needs to apply it in industrial practice. Thus, inaddition to the classical topics of the laws ofthermodynamics,pure component and mixture thermodynamicproperties as well as phase and chemical equilibria thereader will find: - history of thermodynamics - energy conservation - internmolecular forces and molecular thermodynamics - cubic equations of state - statistical mechanics. A great number of calculated problems with solutions and anappendix with numerous tables of numbers of practicalimportance are extremely helpful for applied calculations. The computer programs on the included disk help the studentto become familiar with the typical methods used in industryfor volumetric and vapor-liquid equilibria calculations.
