Course Purpose and Content

Course Objectives:

To teach the fundamentals of thermodynamics to engineering students and to provide them with a comprehensive knowledge on the applications in this field that they will encounter in their professional life.

Course Content:

This course covers the principles of thermodynamics. The objectives of the course are to enable the student to use the laws of thermodynamics for open and closed systems; to calculate the changes of macroscopic properties such as pressure, temperature, volume, humidity and moles for different conditions; to use thermodynamic tables and charts; to establish mass and energy balance for all kinds of open and closed systems. Fundamentals and laws of thermodynamics are analysed in detail. In addition, vapour compression refrigeration and heat pump cycle using pure substance, Rankine steam power cycle, Otto, Diesel and Brayton cycles using ideal gas are analysed with their calculations. The applications of these cycles in engineering are discussed.

Learning Outcomes

The students who have succeeded in this course;
1) Explain the concepts and laws of thermodynamics.
2) Finds or calculates the thermodynamic properties of pure substance and ideal gas.
3) Calculates the 1st and 2nd law of thermodynamics and energy and entropy changes in substances.
4) Understand and analyse the difference between closed and open systems.
5) Understands thermodynamic cycles and makes cycle calculations using thermodynamic principles.
6) Analyses power cycles using ideal gas and makes the necessary thermodynamic calculations.
7) Makes the necessary thermodynamic calculations in power and cooling cycles using pure substance.
8) Knows the application areas of thermodynamics in engineering.
