Introduction to Thermal Systems Engineering:
Thermodynamics, Fluid Mechanics, and Heat
Transfer

DESCRIPTION
From the leading authors in the field, Michael Moran, Howard Shapiro, Bruce Munson, and David DeWitt, comes an integrated
introductory presentation of thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, and heat transfer. The unifying theme is the application of these
priciples in thermal systems engineering. Responding to pressures to reduce credit hours in the curriculum and to ABET-inspired
objectives for more integrated treatment of engineering topics, this text surveys the field of thermal sciences with an emphasis on
applications to thermal systems engineering. The authors have identified the critical subject areas needed for analysis of thermal
systems, and provided them in a text of manageable size. A flexible organization gives instructors choices in the coverage they provide
their students.

NEW TO EDITION
• Unifying Theme: Thermal Systems Engineering. The presentation opens in Chapter 1 with an engaging, case-oriented
introduction to thermal systems engineering. Chapter 1 also describes thermal systems engineering generally and shows the roles
of thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, and heat transfer for analyzing thermal systems as well as their relationship to one another.
• Manageable size and flexible approach . The authors have identified the core subject matter in each area and have presented
it in a 600-page print format that can be covered in one semester. An accompanying CD, containing the full printed text plus 200
pages of additional content, makes the text/CD package appropriate for two semesters.
• Content that works in the classroom. Adapted from the market-leading texts in thermo, fluids, and heat transfer that have
educated over 600,000 engineering students combined!
• Consistent problem-solving procedures. All worked examples throughout the text employ a consistent 5-step problem solving
procedure for solving thermal systems problems.
• Useful student study tools. Each chapter begins with a clear statement of objective and concludes with a chapter summary and
study guide. Lists of key terms are found in the margins. A generous collection of end-of-chapter problems is included, classified by
key topic.
• E-text with additional resources. Each copy of the printed text comes with a CD that includes the 600-page print text and 200
pages of additional content, hyperlinked to show connections between topics. The CD also includes additional worked examples,
answers to selected end of chapter problems, and short video clips of fluid flow phenomenon. For retrieval of property data, and to
model and solve more complex problems, Interactive Thermodynamics and Interactive Heat Transfer programs also are included
on the CD.
