This course introduces the laws of thermodynamics through the study of systems and the flow of energy across system boundaries. Students learn the First Law of Thermodynamics (utilizing heat, energy, work, enthalpy) and the Second Law of Thermodynamics (and the property of entropy) and their macroscopic and microscopic implications. The course focuses on the application of thermodynamics to engineering systems.
