Grades: Eligible Grades: A-F,WP,WF,WN,FN,AU,I
Learning Outcomes:
  • Students completing this course should be able to analyze and determine the thermal efficiency of heat engines.
  • Students completing this course should be able to calculate the heat effect of chemical reactions.
  • Students completing this course should be able to select data which is needed to solve problem, articulate underlying assumption in thermodynamic models and calculations.
  • Students completing this course should have a fundamental understanding of basic thermodynamic principles and concepts the units commonly used in thermodynamic calculations, and the first and second law of thermodynamics.
  • Students should be able to apply the 1st and 2nd law of thermodynamics to determine process parameters such as heat transfer and work, by applying force, mass, or energy balances, steam tables, and derivation of simple thermodynamic relations.
