Synopsis of Course Contents The goal of this course is cover the basic principles of thermodynamics. To
present a wealth of real-world engineering applications to give students a
feel for engineering practice. To develop an intuitive understanding of the
subject matter by emphasizing the physics and physical arguments. To
apply the principles of conservation of mass and energy, production of en-
tropy, work potential of energy, reversible work and irreversibility, second-
law efficiency, and exergy change of a system.
