The applications of the thermodynamics to the analysis of performance and efficiency of pumps, compressors, turbines, nozzles, diffusers, and other engineering systems will be discussed.

The first law of thermodynamics states the principle of energy conservation for systems in which heat and work interactions can take place and the internal energy of the system can change. Using unit ...

The laws of thermodynamics describe the relationship of heat and other forms of energy. In this course, the following concepts are introduced: the definition of systems; the first and second laws of ...

With the requirement for improved energy efficiency becoming an increasingly key component of modern engineering, The Diamond’s Thermodynamics and Mechanics Laboratory offers learners the opportunity ...
