Engineering Thermodynamics
Offered Fall 2019, Fall 2020, Fall 2021 at the Lassonde School of Engineering at York University
Topics include:
- Entropy and Enthalpy
- Steam Cycles
- Gas Cycles
Course Description:
This course covers classical thermodynamics, including: Analysis and application of energy conversion cycles (gas and vapor power); vapor compression cycles and application to HVAC systems; combustion and/or compressible gas flow in conduits (adiabatic and isothermal). Students will examine the various implications of the laws of thermodynamics in complex systems relevant to mechanical engineering.
Instrumentation and Control
Offered Winter 2020, Fall 2020, Fall 2021 at the Lassonde School of Engineering at York University
Topics include:
