Zusammenfassung First published in 1936! this book was written to provide engineers with a working knowledge of elementary thermodynamics. The principles of the subject are first introduced in a non-mathematical form and applied to practical problems. Once the principles have been established on this basis they are discussed in mathematical terms. Inhaltsverzeichnis Preface to the first edition; Note to the second edition A. Egerton; 1.
