Fundamentals of Engineering Thermodynamics, 10th Edition offers a comprehensive introduction to essential principles and applications in the context of engineering. In the Tenth Edition the book retains its characteristic rigor and systematic approach to thermodynamics with enhanced pedagogical features that aid in student comprehension. Detailed appendices provide instant reference; chapter summaries review terminology, equations, and key concepts; and updated data and graphics increase student engagement while enhancing understanding.

This international adapted edition offers new, and updated material with some organizational changes. It focuses on more in-depth coverage of the principles and applications of thermodynamics and incudes many  real-world realistic examples and contemporary topics to help students gain solid foundational knowledge. The edition provides a wide variety of new and updated solved practice problems, real-world engineering examples, and end-of-chapter homework problems and has been completely updated to use SI units.
