PHEN 3715 Engineering Thermodynamics

The fundamental mass and energy conservation laws and entropy balances are developed and applied to closed and open systems. The concepts of heat and work transfer between thermodynamic systems and their surroundings are discussed. The thermodynamic properties of common working substances are studied. These concepts are applied to the analysis of energy conversion systems with examples to include thermal power plants and refrigeration systems. Lab is included in this course.
