MET 3400:Thermodynamics and Heat Transfer

3 Class Hours 0 Laboratory Hours 3 Credit Hours
Prerequisite: MATH 1190 and (PHYS 1111 or PHYS 2211)
A study of the fundamental laws of thermodynamics and heat transfer for non-MET students. Properties of ideal gases, mixtures of ideal gases, real substances as related to heat engines, heat pumps, refrigerators, and heat exchangers are covered. Basic applications of thermodynamics in the study of power plants, internal combustion engines, refrigeration systems and air conditioning systems are included. Heat transfer topics are introduced with applications for conduction, convection, and radiation.
