Objectives

BACKGROUND
In a world where energy is an increasingly scarce and expensive commodity, is critical to an industrial engineer to possess a solid knowledge of thermodynamics so he can take informed decisions in this area. Students should therefore know the functioning of the various thermodynamic cycles of thermal engines and refrigeration machines, as well as being able to perform basic calculations of heat transfer.

SPECIFIC AIMS
This course unit aims to provide the students with a solid knowledge in the area of thermodynamics and heat transfer as well as some training in team work, through the realization of thermal design of several equipments, using the knowledge of thermodynamics and heat transfer acquired in this course.

PREVIOUS KNOWLEDGE

Technological component (apply to design and process operation) – 20%

LEARNING OUTCOMES
At the end of this subject students shall be able to:
Basic engineering calculations: define, calculate and estimate properties, or variations in properties, of substances or of thermodynamic systems, such as enthalpy, internal energy, entropy, specific volume, mass flow rate, pressure and temperature.
Thermodynamic calculations using the first law: Define and calculate works of acceleration and elevation of masses, in a gravitational field, electric, shaft and boundary displacement. Define and calculate heat and work exchanges between a system and its neighbourhood in close and open systems, stationary or unsteady flow.
Applications of the second law: calculate ideal thermal efficiencies of heat engines, refrigerators and heat pumps. Define and calculate efficiencies of several energy conversion devices. Define and calculate isentropic efficiencies of several steady flow devices.
Power and refrigeration cycles: draw the thermodynamic cycles in properties plots and calculate their thermal efficiencies with several degrees of realism.
Heat transfer: perform calculations of heat transfer by conduction in plane, cylindrical and spherical surfaces.
Computation: Use the EES program in the resolution of problems involving energy balances and other thermodynamic applications.
Team work: work effectively in problem-solving teams and carry out meaningful performance assessments of individual team members
