The first time you go through it, you don’t understand it at all. The second time you go through it, you think you understand it, except for one or two small points. The third time you go through it, you know you don’t understand it, but by that time you are so used to it, so it doesn’t bother you any more.” Arnold Sommerfeld Most likely, just about anyone who’s studied thermodynamics or taught it can relate to the above quote. Though we were undergraduate students a generation ago, we still remember how we, and many of our classmates, perceived the subject of Chemical Engineering Thermodynamics when we first en- countered it: complex and abstract, with tons of different equations and terms like “entropy” and “fugacity” that were often hard to connect to anything that seemed real (not to mention the symbols, with an array of carats, overbars, subscripts and superscripts). As teachers of the subject, we can’t shy away from its complexity—we have to tackle it head on. What we can do is frame the subject in ways that make it more accessible. The range of thermodynamics concepts and the long lists of equations may always seem intimidating at first, but they needn’t seem arbitrary. Our goal with this book is to provide a practical and relatable introduction for students who are encountering Chemical Engineering Thermodynamics for the first time. This is an important distinction, since several of the most popular books on the subject for this course have also been used at the graduate level as well. By contrast, this book is truly aimed at providing the “fundamentals” of chemical engineering thermodynam- ics for the undergraduate student. Once complete, the student will have the proper background for follow-on undergraduate courses that rely on a solid foundation in this field of study or for advanced courses in thermodynamics. In an effort to provide this solid foundation in chemical engineering thermodynamics, we have incorpo- rated several features into the book that are intended to make it more accessible to a wide variety of learners: Motivational Examples Each chapter begins with a “Motivational Example” that introduces the topic of the chapter and illustrates its importance. This is intended to benefit all learners, but particularly global learners who require big picture insights to connect information, and technical learners who require a practical application for everything. Worked Examples The book makes extensive use of examples in which the thought process behind the solution is explained, step-by-step, and the practical significance of the material is underscored. For some problems, an expanded version of the solution is available in the students’ electronic supplements. vii Copyright 2015 Cengage Learning. All Rights Reserved.

Margin Notes The book makes extensive use of margin notes. These are intended to serve as a “voice over the reader’s shoulder” guiding them through the book. Placing these notes in the margins avoids interrupting the flow of the main text. The notes include three recurring themes: Margin Notes: These should be interpreted as an aside to the reader, providing an interesting fact about the concept being presented or a quick digression on the scientist or engineer associated with the development of that concept. Margin Notes: Pitfall Prevention: This special type of margin note calls out to the reader where, from our experience, common errors (both conceptual and from a calculation standpoint) will normally occur. Margin Notes: Food for Thought: These are special points that the reader might consider in a deeper way related to the concept being presented. Some are sim- pler while others are more challenging. The student supplemental materials include feedback on the Food for Thought questions. Exercises and Problems Each chapter ends with problems suitable for homework, which are divided into “Exercises” and “Problems.” The Exercises are very focused and comparatively short, and the answers are included in the students’ supplemental materials. Each ex- ercise will test the student’s ability to apply one specific concept or perform one spe- cific type of calculation, and the student can obtain immediate feedback on whether he/she did it correctly. The Problems are longer and require synthesis of more con- cepts. Solutions to problems are available to the instructor both electronically and in a printed solution manual. For many problems, the technology used to arrive at the solutions (such as an Excel sheet) is provided for the instructor. Organization Each chapter is organized to be helpful to students with a variety of learning styles. The introduction to each chapter includes a list of instructional objectives. Each chapter closes with a bulleted summary that includes definitions of key terms and highlights key concepts. The book uses both inductive and deductive reasoning. In some places, key equations and/or concepts are developed in the context of an example, and after the example there is a discussion of how the concept generalizes. In other places a more traditional deductive approach is used. The book comes with a number of additional resources for both students and instructors. Copyright 2015 Cengage Learning.
