Course Objectives The course introduces basic concepts and principles of thermodynamics. Students will look and understand different systems, from household appliances to live organisms, through a prism of thermodynamics laws. Concept of energy, work and entropy will be connected to life and surrounding technologies.
Textbook Thermodynamics: An Engineering Approach 8th Edition by Yunus Cengel, and Michael Boles, Principles of Engineering Thermodynamics, approach, Yunus Cengel

Learning Outcomes After successful  completion of the course, the student will be able to:
  1. Apply the ideal-gas equation of state in the solution of typical problems.
  2. Solve energy balance problems for closed (fixed mass) systems that involve heat and work interactions for general pure substances, ideal gases, and incompressible substances.
  3. Apply the steady-flow energy equation or the First Law of Thermodynamics to a system of thermodynamic components (heaters, coolers, pumps, turbines, pistons, etc.) to estimate required balances of heat, work and energy flow.
  4. Apply the second law of thermodynamics to cycles and cyclic devices.
  5. Calculate the entropy changes that take place during processes for pure substances, incompressible substances, and ideal gases.
Teaching Methods Class discussions with examples. Active tutorial sessions for engaged learning and continuous feedback on progress.
