Objectives:
This course applies the fundamental principles of thermodynamics presented in ENGR 251 to areas of particular interest to mechanical engineers. Topics covered are advanced cycles, real gases, non-reacting gaseous mixtures, and related theory. Prerequisites of this course are COMP 212 & ENGR 251.

Practice Evaluation:
· Course project 10% (Energy management)· Laboratory 25% (15% for steam car project)
· Midterm exam 15% (Tentatively Feb 19, 2015)
· Final exam (closed book and notes) 50%
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.
If you miss the midterm, it will be replaced by an oral theoretical examination (not necessarily covering the same topics as the regular midterm)
Main Topics:
· Introduction and brief review of Thermodynamics I
· Vapor and combined power cycles (Chapter 10)
· Gas power cycles (Chapter 9)
· Refrigeration cycles (Chapter 11)
· Thermodynamic property relations (Chapters 12&13)
· Gas-vapor mixtures and air conditioning (Chapter 14)
· Chemical reactions and phase equilibrium (Chapter 15)
Lecture notes, Assignments, Labs and General notes: Lecture notes will be available on the course website. Problem solving is an essential part of this course; you are encouraged to discuss the general principles involved in the homework sets with one another.
The laboratories will start on Monday, January 12th. The lab manual describing all experiments and providing instructions concerning each experiment should be purchased from the bookstore. To take full benefit from the Lab., the students are urged to study carefully each experiment before performing it in the lab. The students have to get the lab. instructor's signature on their data sheet.
