Introduction to Engineering Thermodynamics

The objective of this book is to present important definitions from the subjects like Fluid Mechanics & Hydraulic Machines, Engineering Metrology & Measurements, Engineering Thermodynamics, Kinematics of Machinery, Mechanics of Solids, Manufacturing Technology and Automobile Engineering.

The mathematics model about the compressor, turbine, recuperator in a S-CO2 Brayton cycle system was studied on the basis of the conservation principle and the basic equations of engineering thermodynamics, heat transfer theory and hydrodynamics.

This text (based on the opening keynote talk for CPOTE-2020) addresses the role of engineering thermodynamics in a world where mankind wishes to have access to low-cost energy.

While thermo-mechanical exergy of systems is covered to a certain extent in modern undergraduate textbooks on engineering thermodynamics, chemical exergy is mentioned only briefly.

For the instructor, the design of rubrics obliges to be reflective about the coherence of learning activities with the competences, which leads to an improvement of the learning process In the present work, quantitative and automated rubrics have been designed for the subject of Engineering Thermodynamics.

The notions of entropy and its generation are the fundamentals of modern technical and engineering thermodynamics and thermal engineering.

Based on the knowledge of heat transfer, fluid mechanics and engineering thermodynamics, this paper uses MATLAB software to compile the dynamic heat storage characteristics calculation program of phase change materials in energy storage tanks, and verify the results.

This paper presents a simple analysis of this information through spreadsheets and compares the activity and learning outcomes of the last four academic courses for the subject of Engineering Thermodynamics and Fundamentals of Heat Transfer of the Degree in Engineering of Industrial Technologies at the University of Zaragoza.
