  • Thermodynamics 1 (30112)
    • תקציר הקורס:

    Abstract:

    Fundamental concepts in thermodynamics, pure substance, heat, energy,

    work, first law of thermodynamic, heat engines in closed systems, the first law as a rate equation,

    enthalpy, the second law of thermodynamic and entropy, reversible process and Carnot heat engine,

    thermodynamic cycles in open systems, air cooling-heat pumps.
  • Thermodinamics 2 (30113)
    • תקציר הקורס:

    Abstract:

    This course goal is to introduce students to thermodynamic

    properties of pure substances and mixtures, and the interdependency of properties

    of substances. The applicability of the First Law, Second Law, conservation of mass

    and properties of substances in practical engineering systems, including gas mixtures

    and power and refrigeration cycles will also be examined. In addition,

    basic concepts of air conditioning will be studied while introducing

    air-water vapor mixtures basic and the psychrometric diagram.

    Fundamentals concepts of combustion reactions, enthalpy of formation

    and heat of combustion will also be addressed.
  • Heat Transfer (30120)
    • תקציר הקורס:

    Abstract:

    The course provides an elementary treatment of principles of Heat Transfer. Steady-State Conduction, Heat Exchangers, Steady State Conduction - Multiple dimension, Unsteady State Conduction, Forced Convection, Natural Convection, Radiation, Numerical method.
  • Power Production Facilities (30204)
    • תקציר הקורס:

    Abstract:

    The main focus of the course is big facilities that convert heat to power. During the course, knowledge from thermodynamics, heat transfer, and fluid mechanics would be combined with an emphasis on useful tools that can be implemented while designing such facilities.
