A concise treatment of the fundamentals of thermodynamics is presented in this book. The entropy function that permits the loss in the potential of a real thermodynamic process to be assessed, the maximum possible work in a process, and irreversibility and equilibrium are deduced from the law through physical and intuitive considerations. In particular, emphasis is placed on discussions of the second law, a unique feature of thermodynamics, which states the limitations of converting thermal energy into mechanical energy.
The ideal gas assumption is invoked as a limiting case. They are applicable in mitigating waste heat and are useful for solving energy, power, propulsion and climate-related issues.The treatment is not restricted to properties and functions of ideal gases. Reversible paths between equilibrium states are obtained using reversible heat engines and reversible
