This comprehensive textbook serves as an invaluable resource for students embarking on their journey into the realm of thermodynamics. Written in a clear and concise manner, it is divided into three parts: Part I delves into the fundamental principles of thermodynamics, Part II explores gas dynamics, and Part III focuses on combustion. Each chapter is meticulously crafted to provide a solid understanding of the subject matter, accompanied by examples and problems that reinforce the concepts discussed.

The book begins with an introductory chapter that provides a comprehensive overview of thermodynamics, including its historical development and applications. This foundation is then built upon as the book delves into the intricacies of engineering devices, such as engines, turbines, and heat exchangers.

The subsequent chapters explore the applications of thermodynamics in gas dynamics and combustion. Topics such as two-phase critical flow, blast theory, and chemical kinetics are covered in depth, providing students with a comprehensive understanding of these advanced topics.

What sets this textbook apart is its unique approach to covering thermodynamics, gas dynamics, and combustion in a clear and concise manner. It demonstrates the integral connections between these three areas, making it an ideal resource for advanced undergraduate and graduate students studying these subjects.

With its extensive coverage, comprehensive examples, and engaging problems, this textbook is an essential tool for anyone seeking to excel in thermodynamics, gas dynamics, and combustion. Whether you are a student, professional, or researcher, this book will provide you with the knowledge and skills necessary to succeed in your field.
