Non-Equilibrium Thermodynamics for Engineers (Second Edition)

by Eivind Johannessen, Joachim Gross, Signe Kjelstrup, et al.

Kjelstrup, Bedeaux, Johannessen, and Gross describe what non-equilibrium thermodynamics is in a simple and practical way and how it can add to engineering design. They explain how to describe proper equations of transport that are more precise than those used so far, and how to use them to understand the waste of energy resources in central process units in the industry. The authors introduce the entropy balance as an additional equation to use in...
