Overview

Dive deep into advanced thermodynamic concepts and applications in this comprehensive course from Cal Poly Pomona. Begin with a thorough review of fundamental principles, including variable specific heats and isentropic efficiency. Explore various thermodynamic cycles, such as Otto, Diesel, Stirling, Ericsson, Brayton, and Rankine, analyzing their ideal and non-ideal forms. Investigate gas power cycles, vapor-compression refrigeration, and absorption refrigeration systems. Study Maxwell relations, the Clapeyron equation, and other crucial thermodynamic property relationships. Examine ideal gas mixtures, humidity, and psychrometrics, including the use of psychrometric charts for air conditioning processes. Delve into combustion principles, including stoichiometric combustion and combustion with excess air. Benefit from midterm reviews and a final course overview to solidify your understanding of these advanced thermodynamic concepts.
