thermodynamics - A package for chemical engineers and others ============================================================= Thermodynamics texts (textbooks, articles, and so forth) are typically filled with underlined and overlined symbols, partial derivatives surrounded by delimiters and containing subscripts, sums over multiple components, and a myriad of symbols, including superscript and subscript modifiers. This package provides a robust, flexible set of macros to define notation for symbols, partial derivatives, sums, and products frequently encountered in mixture thermodynamics. Changing one's notes from one textbook to another or from one notation style to another can be achieved relatively easily by changing package options, without any changes to the user's code (other than perhaps adjusting line breaks). Installation ------------ The package is suppled in `dtx` format with an accompanying `ins` file to install the package. Run `latex thermodynamics.ins` to extract the package; instructions for building the documentation are included in the `ins` file. Note that the package itself (`sty` file) is required to typeset the documentation. This package requires the `amstext` and `expl3` packages. Typesetting the documentation requires several other packages: - `geometry` - `fontenc` - `textcomp` - `amsmath` - `pxfonts` - `array` - `booktabs` - `footmisc` - `caption`
