Learning outcomes

After successful completion of the course, students are able to...

  • To identify and describe thermodynamic systems.
  • Set up and solve equations of state for ideal gases, pure substances, and gas-steam-mixtures.
  • Understand and draw state diagrams for ideal gases, pure substances, and gas-steam-mixtures.
  • Apply the first law of thermodynamics to thermodynamic systems, e.g. to calculate the energy/energy-flow of a given thermodynamic processes.
  • Apply the second law of thermodynamics to thermodynamic systems, e.g. to calculate the entropy/entropy-flow for a given thermodynamic process.
  • To identify processes which are frequently occurring in a technical context and calculate corresponding thermodynamic values.
  • To calculate energies/energy-flows of simple thermodynamic cycles for thermal engines and cooling units/ heat pumps for different working fluids.
