Description

This course provides an introduction to the fundamental principles of classical thermodynamics and their application to engineering systems. Topics include the concepts of energy, heat, work, and properties of pure substances; thermodynamic systems and control volumes; equations of state; and the first and second laws of thermodynamics. The course also covers processes for ideal gases and real substances, energy analysis of closed and open systems, and basic power/refrigeration cycles. Emphasis is placed on developing a clear understanding of thermodynamic principles, problem-solving skills, and the ability to apply these concepts to practical engineering situations.
