Contents:
Ch. 1. Introduction -- Ch. 2. Equations of state -- Ch. 3. The first law and its applications -- Ch. 4. The second law and its applications -- Ch. 5. Exergy (availability) -- Ch. 6. Chemical reactions -- Ch. 7. Thermodynamic property relations of pure substances -- Ch. 8. Thermodynamic cycles -- $t Ch. 9. General residual property relations -- Ch. 10. Residual properties by equations of state -- Ch. 11. Properties of a component in a mixture -- Ch. 12. Partial molar volume and enthalpy from experimental data -- Ch. 13. Fugacity of a component in a mixture by equations of state -- Ch. 14. Activity coefficient models of liquid mixtures -- Ch. 15. Vapour-liquid equilibrium -- Ch. 16. Other phase equilibria -- Ch. 17. Chemical reaction equilibria -- Ch. 18. Adiabatic reaction temperature -- Appendix -- Bibliography -- Index.
Summary: A comprehensive undergraduate and postgraduate textbook of chemical engineering thermodynamics by an IIT faculty member, providing full coverage of thermodynamic systems in chemical engineering. The text opens with key terminology and proceeds through equations of state (virial and cubic), PVT relations of fluids, the First and Second Laws with engineering applications, and the concept of exergy. Chemical reaction standard property changes, thermodynamic property relations of pure substances, and thermodynamic cycles are covered before an advanced treatment of residual and excess properties, mixture properties, fugacity of components in mixtures by equations of state, and activity coefficient models, including local composition and group contribution methods. Subsequent chapters address vapour-liquid and other phase equilibria, chemical reaction equilibria, and adiabatic reaction temperature for complete and incomplete conversion of reactants. Each chapter is supported by numerous engineering examples and problems.
