TEXT:

Fundamentals of Engineering Thermodynamics: Moran & Shapiro (Wiley, New York) 8th Edition. ISBN 978-1118412930(with WileyPlus Code)

Instructional Objectives

Applications of fundamental concepts of work, heat, energy. Basic power and refrigeration cycles, and reciprocating machines. First and second law of thermodynamics as applied by the engineering technologist. Use of generalized charts and handbooks in solving thermodynamic problems.

Teaching Method

This class will involve lecture and your participation in the form of small groups. You will work on in-class problems and occasionally present your solutions or other material for the whole class. This format is based on studies that show that if you are more involved in the learning process, you will learn more deeply. Please bring your calculator to each class session.
