Classical Thermodynamics: Lecture Notes
Eric Brunet, Thierry Hocquet, Xavier Leyronas
A compact set of physics lecture notes that reviews systems, equilibrium, internal energy and entropy before moving on to applications. Short enough to read in a weekend and precise enough to use before an exam.

Principles of Thermodynamics (Lectures)An engineering lecture course that defines energy, the first law and the second law, then shows where they appear in power plants, refrigeration and air conditioning. Plenty of diagrams and solved examples throughout.
Verified PDF · Secure download - Lectures on Heat and Thermodynamics
Fowler teaches thermodynamics through its history: the first thermometers, the caloric theory, Carnot's water wheel and the discovery of energy conservation by Mayer and Joule. A good entry point if the equations came before the intuition.
Verified PDF · Secure download - Review of Thermodynamics
A concise review of the laws of thermodynamics and the techniques used to derive thermodynamic relationships. Written for readers who already took an introductory course and want the state function machinery in one place.
Verified PDF · Secure download - DOE Fundamentals Handbook: Thermodynamics
A technical handbook covering thermodynamic properties, steam tables, the energy balance and the cycles behind real power plants. Written as reference material for plant operators, so definitions are precise and every term gets explained.
Verified PDF · Secure download - Engineering Thermodynamics
A modern open textbook covering closed and open systems, ideal gases, liquids and vapors, entropy, and steam and air power cycles. It includes 59 step by step worked examples and 96 problems with full solutions, which is exactly what most engineering students are after.
