Description
4. To illustrate the extremely wide variety of thermodynamics
related applications in everyday life and in modern technology.
The first law of thermodynamics is studied in detail. Material
covered includes concepts of energy, enthalpy, heat effects,
conservation of energy, and interaction between heat transfer,
mechanical work and chemical energy liberation, equation of state,
behavior of gases and liquids and standard heat of reaction,
formation and combustion. Study of combined mass and energy
balances and the principles of the second and third law of
thermodynamics are also covered.
