To provide a better teaching and learning experience, for both instructors and students, this program will: This innovative online program emulates the instructor’s office–hour environment, guiding students through engineering concepts from Thermodynamics with self-paced individualized coaching. MasteringEngineering for Thermodynamics is a total learning package. To create a rich learning experience for today’s thermodynamics student, this book melds traditional content with the web-based resources and learning tools of TEST: The Expert System for Thermodynamics ( interactive platform that offers smart thermodynamic tables for property evaluation and analysis tools for mass, energy, entropy, and exergy analysis of open and closed systems.

Thermodynamics: An Interactive Approach employs a layered approach that introduces the important concepts of mass, energy, and entropy early, and progressively refines them throughout the text. How might an enzyme lower this activation energy? By making it easier for A and B to find each other with the right orientation and energy.This package includes MasteringEngineering ®.įor the thermodynamics course in the Mechanical & Aerospace Engineering department We can conceptualize “activation energy” as the difficulty in getting A and B together perfectly so the reaction can proceed. If this reaction is not catalyzed, it depends on the happenstance that a molecule of A runs into a molecule of B in just the right orientation, and with the right amount of energy, to react and form the new molecule.
