Theory of Macroscopic Systems : A Unified Approach for Engineers

Traditionally the Theory of Macroscopic Systems is based on thermodynamics; physical transport phenomena, sometimes referred to as non-equilibrium or irre-versible thermodynamics; fluid mechanics; chemical reaction engineering; and heat and power engineering. The idea of this book is to present the theory of macroscopic systems as a unified theory with equations strictly de-veloped from a single set of principles and concepts. The book addresses students as well as professionals.
