About Book
Science of Heat and Thermophysical Studies provides a non-traditional bridging of historical, philosophical, societal and scientific aspects of heat with a comprehensive approach to the field of generalized thermodynamics. It involves Greek philosophical views and their impact on the development of contemporary ideas.
Covered topics include:
- The concept of heat
- Thermometry and calorimetry
- Early concepts of temperature and its gradients
- Non-equilibrium and quantum thermodynamics
- Chemical kinetics
- Entropy, order and information
- Thermal science applied to economy(econophysics), ecosystems, and process dynamics or mesoscopic scales (quantum diffusion)
- Importance of energy science and its influence to societal life
