Specific to each chapter are solved numericals as examples and a summary that highlights the laws, formulae and important points that help in making revision easier for readers. Additionally, this edition has an expanded version of the chapter on energy. To test the readers’ understanding of the chapters, many review questions are provided at the end of each topic. There are several multiple choice questions from previous year’s papers of GATE. An appendix section with the important glossary and latest thermodynamic trends has been included. ER -
