Haines P. J.
Thermal Methods of Analysis ; Principles, Applications, and Problems / P. J. Haines - Devon : Springer Netherlands, 1995. - 286p. : ill, ; 7.01 × 10.00 inches.
Introduction: Overview of thermal and statistical physics.
The Laws of Thermodynamics: Discussion on the fundamental laws governing thermodynamic systems.
Second Law of Thermodynamics: Exploration of the implications and applications of the second law.
Entropy: Detailed analysis of entropy and its significance in thermodynamics.
Thermodynamic Potentials and Maxwell Relations: Examination of various thermodynamic potentials and their interrelations.
Kinetic Theory of Gases: Study of the behavior of gases from a kinetic perspective.
Real Gases: Investigation of the deviations from ideal gas behavior.
Applications to Some Irreversible Changes, Cooling of Real Gases: Analysis of non-reversible processes and their applications.
This textbook offers a clear and systematic introduction to the fundamental concepts of thermal physics and elementary statistical mechanics. It is designed to present topics in a holistic manner, incorporating numerous solved examples, multiple-choice questions, and end-of-chapter exercises to facilitate self-learning. The book also includes illustrated diagrams to enhance understanding, making it suitable for students undertaking introductory courses in thermal physics, thermodynamics, and statistical mechanics .
