Synopsis
The course introduces the applications of fundamentals of
thermodynamics for selected engines, cycles and processes
which are used in our daily life. The First and Second Law of
thermodynamic are used. This course is also aimed at enriching
students with critical thinking skills and the ability to use the laws
correctly in engineering problems and solve energy problems.
