Engineering Thermodynamics (PK NAG) For Engineers

Thermodynamics is the study of the relationships between heat, work, and energy, and is a fundamental subject in understanding how the universe operates. This course provides a comprehensive introduction to the principles of thermodynamics, covering the basic concepts, laws, and applications. Students will learn about thermodynamic systems, properties, and processes, including energy transfer, work, and efficiency.

The course will delve into the Zeroth, First, Second, and Third Laws of Thermodynamics, and explore their implications for understanding natural phenomena and designing engineering systems. Topics will include ideal gases, thermodynamic cycles, and phase equilibria, as well as applications in fields such as power generation, refrigeration, and materials science. Through a combination of lectures, discussions, and problem-solving exercises, students will gain a deep understanding of thermodynamic principles and their practical applications.

By the end of the course, students will be able to analyze and design thermodynamic systems, evaluate energy conversion efficiency, and apply thermodynamic principles to real-world problems. Whether you are interested in pursuing a career in engineering, scientific research, or simply gaining a deeper understanding of the world around you, this course will provide a solid foundation in thermodynamics. Unlock the secrets of energy and its transformations with this introduction to thermodynamics.

Covering topics from thermodynamic systems and properties to laws and applications, this course provides a solid foundation for understanding the world around us, from the smallest molecules to the largest power plants.
