Course Description The course is designed to study the thermodynamic properties, heat and work, first
and second laws, processes, ideal and non-ideal cycles.
:
Course Objectives The objective of this course is to develop knowledge of the First and second laws of
thermodynamics, thermodynamic processes and properties, flow processes, conversion of heat into
work, conduction, convection, radiation, and heat exchangers. Topics to be considered include
applications to ideal and real gases, vapor and gas power systems, refrigeration, and many heat pumps.
Examples and problems are related to contemporary aspects of energy, power generation and broader
environmental issues. The students will be asked to demonstrate his or her knowledge of the material
covered in this first thermodynamics course through his or her mastery of the following course
objectives. Through the study of this material the student will be able to:
:
1. Determine properties of real substances, such as steam, and ideal gases from either tabular data or
equations of state.
 Use absolute, gauge, and vacuum pressures correctly to calculate gauge and vacuum pressures
using the manometer equation and use absolute and Celsius temperatures correctly.
 Determine property data using the steam tables and determine the condition of a data state as a
compressed, saturated, or superheated state and determine the thermodynamic properties at that
state by using property tables.
 Sketch P-v, T-v, and P-T plots for steam, and ideal gases to locate data states on P-v, T-v, and P-T
plots for steam, and ideal gases and demonstrate the use of quality in finding properties of twophase substances.
 Apply the concept of the generalized compressibility factor to demonstrate when the ideal gas
equation may be used to determine the state of a gas.
 Apply the ideal gas equation to solve problems involving pressure, temperature, and volume of
ideal gases and determine changes in internal energy and enthalpy for ideal gases.
 Determine mass flow rate from its definition and relation to volume flow rate.
2. Analyze processes involving ideal gases and real substances as working fluids in both closed systems
and open systems or control volumes to determine process diagrams, apply the first law of
thermodynamics to perform energy balances, and determine heat and work transfers.
 Determine the pressure-volume relation for processes and plot the processes on P-v and diagrams
and calculate the boundary work for a variety of processes for closed systems.
 Apply the first law to closed systems containing ideal gases and steam to determine heat transfer,
work, or property changes during processes.
 Apply the first law to steady-flow open systems containing ideal gases, steam, and refrigerant to
determine heat transfer, work, and property changes during processes.
3. Analyze systems and control volumes through the application of the second law.
 Determine the efficiency of heat engines and compare with the Carnot heat engine efficiency.
 Determine the coefficient of performance of refrigerators and heat pumps and compare with
refrigerators and heat pumps operating on the reversed Carnot cycle.
 Determine entropy changes for both ideal gases and real substances.
 Determine the properties of a working fluid at the end of an isentropic process.
 Apply both the first and second laws to determine heat transfer, work, and property changes during
processes occurring in both closed and open systems.

2011, ISBN-13 978-0-07-736674-2.
Course Policies and Procedures:
1. Grading: The final grade calculation will be reached according to the distribution described on page 68
of the 2010 – 2011 UMHB Bulletin. The final course grade will be computed in the following way:
Class Participation
10%
Problem Sets and Quizzes
10%
Three Section Examinations (worth 20% each)
60%
Final Examination (worth 20% required of all)
20%
2. Course Notebook: Each student should keep notes, handouts, homework, quizzes, and exams in an
orderly, professionally presented 3-ring binder with work done on engineering paper. Homework
assignments will be made throughout the course and the syllabus updated to reflect all homework
assignments. Quizzes will be periodically given at the beginning of class. I encourage you to come
to my office for any assistance you may need.
3. Attendance: The student is expected to attend all scheduled classes and is held responsible for all
class work and assignments. Continued absences will reduce your Class Participation score and will
result in an unsatisfactory grade report for the course.
4. Examinations: All students are required to be present for a test. If an emergency occurs, and you
cannot make the test time, the student must immediately contact the instructor by email, phone or
in person to receive permission to miss the examination. Permission will be granted only under
extenuating circumstances.
5. Makeup Examinations: Makeup examinations will be given only under extenuating circumstances
(major illness, death in the family, etc.). Students desiring a Makeup Examination must make
arrangements with the instructor to take the test. A Makeup Examination must be scheduled during
office hours BEFORE the next scheduled test. If a student fails to take a Makeup Examination before
the next scheduled test, that student will receive a zero for the examination missed.
6. Final Examination: The final examination will be comprehensive. No makeup will be given for the
final examination. A grade of zero will be given to any student not present for the final.
