Text Books:
1. Engineering thermodynamics by ‘P K Nag’
2. Fundamentals of classical thermodynamics by ‘Sonntag R R’

Note:
1. Continuous assessment Exams will be conducted beyond class hours, probably b/w
5-6PM.
2. Any change in the exam dates will be intimated well in advance.
3. Students are advised not to miss the exams. Under any circumstances, compensatory
exams (minor/class test) will not be conducted.
