Course Objective

In this course, it is aimed that students gain a deep insight for thermodynamic analysis of engineering problems. After giving common relations for energy and exergy, thermodynamic relations for pure materials are derived from basic principles. Finally, an introduction is given for the solutions thermodynamics.

Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit

1   Calculating exergy balance for thermodynamic systems and discussion of the exergy destruction.
2   Calculating energy and entropy of an ideal gas by using kinetic theory
3   Calculating P-v-T behaviour of pure substances by using gas models
4   Calculating sonic velocity, JT coefficient etc. by using other rhermodynamic properties .
5   Performing P-v-T behaviours of gas mixtures
6   Performing phase change behaviours of multicomponent solutions.
