It includes index.

This new 2-colours edition of 'Thermal Engineering' has been written for the students preparing the subject for B.Tech./B.E. examinations of various Indian Universities, A.M.I.E. and competitive examinations (e.g., U.P.S.C., GATE etc.). The Book contains 29 chapters in all, and deals the subject matter exhaustively.
Salient Features:

The presentation of the subject matter is very systematic and the language of the text is lucid, direct and easy to understand.
Each chapter of book is saturated with much needed text supported by neat and self-explanatory diagrams to make the subject matter self-speaking to a great extent.
A large number of solved examples, questions selected from various universities, U.P.S.C., GATE etc., examination question papers, properly graded, have been added in various chapters to enable the students to attempt different types of questions in the examination without any difficulty.
At the end of each chapter Highlights, Objective Type Questions, Theoretical Questions and Unsolved Examples have been added to make the book a complete unit in all respects.
