Subject:

Description:

Not offered in the period from 08F through 10S The concepts of work, heat, and thermodynamic properties are reviewed. Special consideration is given to derivation of entropy through information theory and statistical mechanics. Chemical and phase equilibria are studied and applied to industrial processes. Many thermodynamic processes are analyzed; the concept of exergy (availability) is used to evaluate their performance, and identify ways to improve their efficiency.
