Thermodynamics

Principles Characterizing Physical and Chemical Processes

About this book

Thermodynamics is a self-contained analysis of physical and chemical processes, based on classical thermodynamic principles. Emphasis is placed on the fundamental principles, with a conbination of theory and practice, and demonstrating their application to a variety of disciplines. Included in this work are new approaches to irreversible processes, electromagnetic effects, adsorption phenomena, self-assembly, the origin of phase diagrams, critical phenomena, and Carathéodory's treatment of the second law. This book will appeal to graduate students and professional chemists and physicists who wish to acquire a more sophisticated overview of thermodynamics and related subject matter. - Easy-to-understand style appeals to both chemists and physicists - Discusses treatment of electromagnetic phenomena and adsorption of surface gases surfaces - Extensively revised to cater for advanced courses in thermodynamics
