EGM-3211 Thermodynamics
This course investigates the basic properties and behavior of thermodynamic systems. Topics include temperature, pressure, work and heat, and heat transfer. The laws of thermodynamics, the ideal gas equation, calorimetry, thermal processes, and entropy will be covered. The course also explores the fundamental thermodynamic principles that are applied to the analysis of heat engines, generation facilities, and refrigeration cycles.
Advisory: It is strongly recommended that you do not take any of the Nuclear Engineering Technology and Radiation Protection area of study courses unless your math skills, up to and including derivatives and integrals, are current. Students are responsible for making sure that they have the necessary knowledge.
