Goals The aim of this course is to extend the undergraduate thermodynamic knowledge (thermodynamic's laws, phase and chemical equilibria, stability criteria) of the students, deal with the statistical aspects of thermodynamics and show that the concepts of thermodynamics are applicable to energy conversion processes.
Course Content An overview of first and second laws, calculus of thermodynamics, phase, and chemical equilibrium, stability criteria, statistical thermodynamics, exergy analysis, heat engines and power cycles, thermodynamic application to thermal systems, thermodynamic analysis of stationary fluidized systems, thermodynamics of combustion.
Learning Outcomes 1) The students will learn the calculus of thermodynamics.
2) The students will learn the phase and chemical equilibria.
3) The students will learn the stability criteria.
4) The students will learn the statistical thermodynamics.
5) The students will learn the exergy analysis.
6) The students will learn heat machines and power cycles
7) The students will learn thermodynamic application to thermal systems.
8) The students will learn thermodynamic analysis of stationary fluidized systems.
9) The students will learn thermodynamics of combustion.
