Objectives
The fundamentals of thermodynamics, including applications of the first and second laws, enthalpy, entropy, and reversible and irreversible processes. The objectives of the course are to present a comprehensive treatment of classical thermodynamics within the framework of an engineering technology curriculum. The course prepares the student to use thermodynamics in applications typically found in professional practice.
Textbook
- “Thermodynamics: An Engineering Approach” by Cengel and Boles, 6th edition (SI), McGraw Hill.

Design Soft Skill
Teaching:
Problem Analysis: An ability to identify, formulate, research and solve complex engineering problems reaching substantiated conclusions.
Practice Evaluation:
· Quizzes (40% based on assigned problems) 15%· Midterm exam 30% (Tentatively Oct. 23, 2009)
· Final exam (closed book and notes) 55%
However you must pass the final examination with a 50% grade to pass the course.
ALL exams are mandatory and ALL exams will be counted.
Any missing Quizz might be replaced by an oral theoretical examination (not necessarily covering the same topics as the quiz.)
Main Topics
- Basic Concepts of thermodynamics.
- Properties of pure substances.
- Energy transfer by heat, work and mass.
