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, thermal cycles and systems are investigated from thermodynamic point of view.


Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit

1   Calculating energy/exergy balance for thermodynamic systems
2   Investigating P-v-T behaviours of pure substances
3   Investigating P-v-T behaviours of gas mixture
4   Analyzing of thermal cycles
5   Performing phase change behaviours of multicomponent solutions
6   Analyzing of chemical reactions
