Basic concepts, definitions and laws (quantitative relations of Zeroth, first, second and third laws of thermodynamics). Properties of pure substances: the two-property rule (P-V-T behaviour of pure substances and perfect gases); state diagrams. The principle of corresponding state; compressibility relations; reduced pressure; reduced volume; temperature; pseudo-critical constants. The ideal gas: specific heat, polytropic processes. Ideal gas cycles; Carnot; thermodynamic cycles, turbines, steam and gas, refrigeration. The first law of thermodynamics – heat and work, applications to open and closed systems. The steady flow energy equation (Bernoulli’s equation) and application. Second law of thermodynamics, heat cycles and efficiencies.
