ENGR& 224 - Thermodynamics

Credits: (5)
Natural Sciences
Introduction to classical thermodynamics from an engineering perspective. Topics include system definition (e.g., open; closed), properties, and state; forms of energy and energy transfer mechanisms; development of the fundamental laws of thermodynamics; entropy and exergy; transfer efficiency; and thermodynamic property relations. Specific applications include gas, vapor, and combined power cycles; refrigeration; and air conditioning.
