Colorado School of Mines

Subject:

Description:

This course includes the study of thermodynamic relations, Clapeyron equation, mixtures and solutions, Gibbs function, combustion processes, first and second law applied to reacting systems, third law of thermodynamics, real combustion processes, equilibrium of multicomponent systems, simultaneous chemical reactions of real combustion processes, ionization, overview of the major characteristics of spark-ignition and compression-ignition engines, define parameters used to describe engine operation, develop the necessary thermodynamic and combustion theory required for a quantitative analysis of engine behavior, develop an integrated treatment of the various methods of analyzing idealized models of internal combustion engine cycles, and finally summarize how operating characteristics of spark-ignition and compressionignition engine depend on the major engine design and operating variables.
