Thermodynamics is a vital branch of physics that focuses upon the interaction of heat, work, and temperature with energy, radiation, and matter. Thermodynamics can apply to a wide range of sciences, but is particularly important in chemical engineering, where the interconnection of heat and work with chemical reactions or physical changes of state are studied according to the laws of thermodynamics. Moreover, thermodynamics in chemical engineering focuses upon pure fluid and mixture properties, phase equilibrium, and chemical reactions within the confines of the laws of thermodynamics.Given that thermodynamics is an essential course of study in chemical and petroleum engineering, Thermodynamics for Chemical Engineers provides an important introduction to the subject that comprehensively covers the topic in an easily-digestible manner. Suitable for undergraduate and graduate students, the text introduces the basic concepts of thermodynamics thoroughly and concisely while providing practice-oriented examples and illustrations.

La chimie est devenue l'objet de toutes les craintes. Au « chimique » on oppose le « naturel » vers lequel il faudrait revenir. Comment aborder ce sujet avec un peu de raison ?Avant Lavoisier à la fin du XVIIIe siècle, un des pères de la chimie, personne ne savait faire des produits dits « chimiques ». Dans ce monde sans chimie, sans vaccin ni médicament, l'espérance de vie ne dépassait pas trente ans, loin des quatre-vingts ans actuels. Ce considérable allongement est dû aux différentes composantes de la science et de la médecine, la chimie y ayant pris une large part. Au cours du XXe siècle, son développement a contribué à créer une société d'abondance. Demain, sans nouveaux produits et matériaux chimiques à faible impact sur l'environnement, il sera difficile de faire vivre et de nourrir une population dont la croissance a été particulièrement forte au cours des cent dernières années. Cela ne se fera pas de manière « naturelle », mais avec beaucoup de sciences, à la fois rigoureuses et originales.Cet ouvrage a pour ambition de remettre à sa juste place la fonction de la chimie dans notre vie quotidienne, et de regarder avec raison ce qu'il faut garder, limiter ou éliminer.

This introduction to thermodynamics discusses typical phase diagrams features and presents the wide range of techniques such as Differential Scanning Calorimetry, Thermogravimetry and others. In the last part the author brings many examples for typical practical problems often solved by thermal analysis. As an instructive guideline for practitioners the work reveals the connection between experimental data and theoretical model and vice versa.
