Summary

Chemical engineers face the challenge of learning the difficult concept and application of entropy and the 2nd Law of Thermodynamics. By following a visual approach and offering qualitative discussions of the role of molecular interactions, Koretsky helps them understand and visualize thermodynamics. Highlighted examples show how the material is applied in the real world. Expanded coverage includes biological content and examples, the Equation of State approach for both liquid and vapor phases in VLE, and the practical side of the 2nd Law. Engineers will then be able to use this resource as the basis for more advanced concepts.

Author Biography

Milo D. Koretsky received his Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering from the University of California at Berkeley in 1991. He is currently of professor of Chemical Engineering at Oregon State University. His research interests in thin film materials processing, including plasma chemistry and physics, electrochemical processes and semiconductor yield prediction. His teaching interests include integration of microelectronic unit operations into the ChE curriculum and thermodynamics.
