Course Description:
|
Course will explore
the relationship between heat, work, and systems that analyze energy
processes. Understand the Laws of thermodynamics. Define terms and
expressions related to thermodynamics such as: Heat engines, Steam turbines
Compressor, Thermodynamic cycle, Heat transfer, Enthalpy, Entropy,
Temperature, Pressure, Specific volume, Sensible and Latent heat, and
thermal conductivity.

Thermodynamic
cycle.
|
|
Highlight the
first law of thermodynamics which states that the change in internal
energy of a substance equals the work done on it plus the heat
transferred to it. How the thermodynamic cycle effects
the refrigeration process.
|
|
|
|
Heat
transfer
|
|
We will discuss
the three different mechanisms for heat transfer, such as: Conduction,
Convection, and Radiation. How heat transfer effects
the refrigeration process.
|
|
|
|
Enthalpy,
entropy, temperature, pressure.
|
|
Understand these
terms and how to measure them in a refrigeration application.
|
|
|
|
Specific
volume.
Sensible
and latent heat.
|
|
How they effect the thermodynamic and refrigeration
processes
|
|
|
|
Thermal
conductivity.
|
|
Understand how
this effects the refrigeration process.
