  • Thermodynamics 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.
