Develop essential physical sciences skills with expert instruction and practical examples.
What is Thermodynamics. Thermo is the branch of physics that deals with temperature and pressure and how they are related to work and energy. Thermodynamics applies to a wide variety of applications such as combustion engines, heating and air conditioning systems, and jet propulsion, along with many, many others.
Who should enroll in this course. Engineering students wanting to get a head start on an upcoming Thermo courseStudents currently taking Thermo who need extra examples and explanationsStudents and professionals who are preparing to take the Fundamentals of Engineering ExamAnyone with an interest in learning about work and energy How's this course different from the other online Thermo courses. Why should I enroll in this course.
This course covers all the topics needed to gain an understanding of the basics of thermodynamics. We will cover: Pressure and temperatureWork and energy of closed systemsSteam TablesEnthalpyCompressibility chartsIdeal gas modelMass flow ratesWork and energy of control volumesThermodynamic efficienciesEntropyAnd more. What sets this course apart from others is the number of worked examples.
Being an instructor of Thermodynamics for many years, I understand the need for examples. So many instructors simply show a solution to a problem or only solve it halfway and just assume the student knows how to finish it. This used to be one of my biggest frustrations as a student so I can relate when I hear today's students complain about this.
