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. |
