Thermodynamics: An Engineering Approach", Y.A. Çengel, M.A. Boles, McGrawHill, 6th ed., 2007
The course is designed to introduce students to the basic principles of classical thermodynamics. Thermodynamic analysis and solutions of engineering problems are presented with a closed and open system approach.
1. Students learn to use thermodynamic terms and concepts appropriately.
2. The course provides students with the necessary background for advanced thermodynamics courses and research in thermal sciences.
3. Students gain knowledge about the environmental impact of energy conversion systems.
4. The terms reversible and irreversible processes, irreversibility and efficiency are understood.
5. Students learn thermodynamic analysis of steam power plants and cooling systems.
6. Thermal design practices in accordance with engineering ethics
7. Sustainable development
