Course Objectives:
To present a comprehensive and rigorous treatment of classical thermodynamics while retaining an
engineering perspective. To lay the groundwork for subsequent studies in such fields as fluid
mechanics, heat transfer and to prepare the students to effectively use thermodynamics in the
practice of engineering. To develop an intuitive understanding of thermodynamics by emphasizing
the physics and physical arguments. To present a wealth of real world engineering examples to give
students a feel for how thermodynamics is applied in engineering practice.
