Course description:
Introduction to the concept of energy and the laws governing the transfers and transformations of energy. Emphasis
on thermodynamic properties and the first and second law analysis of systems and control volumes. Integration of
these concepts into the analysis of basic power cycles is introduced.
Thermodynamic properties of fluids. Describes fundamental property relation. Numerical practice about solution
thermodynamics. Chemical reaction equilibria. Galvanic Cells. Elements of a galvanic cell.
Objectives of the Course:
Students should be able to
1. introduce basic physical concepts and applications of thermodynamics, and their consequences for engineering
processes and operations
2. familiarize students with the properties of pure substances along with basic principles governing
transformations of energy
3. emphasize the first and second law of thermodynamics
4. use thermodynamics to solve problems in solution, phase, and chemical equilibria.
5. select specific equations of state or correlations that are appropriate for treating a given engineering problem.
6. describe the molecular-level phenomena that give rise to solution behavior.
7. compute the equilibrium constant for a given reaction at any temperature.
8. compute the extent of reaction and equilibrium composition of single and multiple chemical reactions.
