Thermodynamics gives the principles of the phenomenon in various kinds of engineering operations, which are used for the conversions of energy and materials, and is one of the most important basic fields. In this course, students understand and learn how to apply mainly three thermodynamic laws, enthalpy, entropy, cycle, free energy, equilibrium, etc.
After studying this subject, the students should be able to give a guiding principle for the selection, design, etc. of the engineering operations.
Enthalpy, Entropy, Cycle, Free energy, Equilibrium
