Acerca de este libro electrónico

The branch of physical science that deals with the relations between heat and other forms of energy (such as mechanical, electrical, or chemical energy), and, by extension, the relationships between all forms of energy. Thermodynamics is a branch of physics that deals with heat, work, and temperature, and their relation to energy, radiation, and properties of matter. The behavior of these quantities is governed by the four laws of thermodynamics which convey a quantitative description using measurable macroscopic physical quantities, but may be explained in terms of microscopic constituents by statistical mechanics. Thermodynamics applies to a wide variety of topics in science and engineering, especially physical chemistry, chemical engineering, and mechanical engineering, but also in other complex fields such as meteorology. Historically, thermodynamics developed out of a desire to increase the efficiency of early steam engines, particularly through the work of French physicist Nicolas Léonard Sadi Carnot who believed that engine efficiency was the key that could help France win the Napoleonic Wars.[1] Scots-Irish physicist Lord Kelvin was the first to formulate a concise definition of thermodynamics in 1854 which stated, "Thermo-dynamics is the subject of the relation of heat to forces acting between contiguous parts of bodies, and the relation of heat to electrical agency."

Acerca del autor

Shivendra Nandan is the former State Representative (Technical Education) of the Government of Rajasthan. He provided eminent support in the implementation of the National Education Policy in Technical Education. Being a Chartered Engineer and Gold Medalist in his Bachelor, his Ideas were selected for review in the Idea and Innovation exhibition organized by the Council of Science and Technology UP and Got the prize.

He is a member of prestigious engineering societies such as the International Association of Engineers, Institution of Engineers (India), ASME, and ASHRAE. In the field of research, he begins with articles in different domains such as Thermal, Renewable energy, and Design Aspects. Later on, he constrained himself in the field of soft materials and computational mechanics. Later on, he became a reviewer of more than 10 prestigious journals and editor of "Futuristics Trends in Mechanical Engineering Journal".

He is the Host and Anchor of "Talk Show on Mechanical Engineering", which is declared as one of the Top 20 Podcasts on Mechanical Engineering in 2021 by Welp magazine. Further, he is serving as Design Engineer in Mercedes-Benz Research & Development India (MBRDI), Pune.
