AE405PC: AERO - THERMODYNAMICS

B.Tech II Year II Semester (R18)

Course Objectives:

  • To introduce fundamental concepts in thermodynamics, heat transfer, and refrigeration and air conditioning. apply mathematical foundations, principles in solving thermodynamics problems.

Course Outcomes:

  • This course provides the basic knowledge about thermodynamic laws and relations, and their application to various processes.

UNIT - I

First Law of Thermodynamics: Concept of continuum-Macroscopic approach-thermodynamic systems-properties-state, path and process, quasi-static process- work and heat-zeroth law and first law of thermodynamics-internal energy-enthalpy- applications of first law of thermodynamics to closed and open system.

UNIT - II

Second Law of Thermodynamics: Second law of thermodynamics-Kelvin’s and Clausius statements of second law-reversibility and irreversibility-carnot theorem-carnot cycle- reversed Carnot cycle- clausius inequality-concept of entropy-principle of energy-availability and unavailability-Exergy for closed and an open systems.

UNIT - III
