Review: It is not a great book as it has all 3 mechanical majors so it's hard to focus on the relevant topics. Bought it and returned it back. Thanks for desertcart's excellent customer service though.
Review: I took the April 2017 Mechanical Engineering Thermal and Fluid Systems exam...and passed! This is THE book to get if you are planning on taking the PE exam. After reading several reviews, I decided that the price was worth it, so I bought the reference manual itself, along with the accompanying question and answer soft cover book. I spent about seven months reading through the entirety of the book and performing about 95% of the study problems. I stayed away from most of the questions that said that they would take at least an hour to solve since I thought they would be outside the realm of what I would have to do on the exam. Granted, they are good if you have the time. All-in-all I used about 400 pages of engineering paper working problems out. I only solved the problems in English units, primarily because I felt more comfortable with SI, so I figured it wouldn't be that big of a stretch to solve an SI based problem. I also did not work out the problems from the Plant Operations and Management section, but I did read through those chapters. They did expose me to many aspects of Mechanical Engineering that I had little to no experience with, so it was definitely worth it from a learning perspective. Some reviewers have said to skip over the first 13 chapters since they are just background skills, but I did go through them and learned a thing or two along the way. I did end up taking a few extra books with me to the exam, although it was wholly unnecessary. I also printed out a few engineering codes that I was able to find online, but again I didn't need any of those. I would have been fine bringing only this book and a calculator. I thought that the morning session was actually pretty straight forward. The afternoon session was a bit more challenging, but I finished both sections with 45 minutes to an hour left on the clock. The extensive study beforehand really paid off. While the book does a great job of giving you usable equations, I would not recommend relying on just finding a "plug and chug" solution to every problem. If you understand how systems actually work, you can solve every problem relatively quickly. If you find yourself using an erf function, you're probably overthinking the solution. Bottom line, if you want to pass the exam with style, get this book.

1週間ほど使用している，現在の感想です． 設計職に内定が決まり，勉強のための本を探していた時に知り合いのPEの方から薦めていただいた本です． 幅広い分野に対応する参考書で，一つ一つの分野でみてもかなりの分量の資料，問題をそろえております． 熱力学の項では化学的な電気陰性度での化合について，制御器の項ではモデル化について触れるなど，内容も深く掘り下げられており，値段は高いですが，納得できる良著です． 少し気になるのは，どの項目についてもさっくりとまとめているので，内容を理解するには大学で学んだレベルの事前知識が必要と思います． とはいえ非常によくまとめられており勉強し易いと感じますので，星5にさせていただきます．
