• Internal energy & the first law of Thermodynamics
• Entropy & the second law of thermodynamics
• Thermodynamic properties of pure substances
• Power generation cycles – vapor power system
• Power generation cycles – gas power system
• Thermodynamic relations
• Ideal Gas Mixture and Psychrometric Applications
• Chemical and Phase Equilibrium

Every week, lecture video files will be uploaded to PLMS. Students are supposed to learn the lecture by watching the video files and to check/consolidate their understanding by solving homework problems.
Lecture slides and homework assignments will be uploaded or distributed weekly (or biweekly).
Solving homework assignments will lead students to prepare themselves for the final examination.
Although lecture slides are often sufficient to cover the subjects of the course, students are encouraged to read the textbook to consolidate the lecture material. (Textbook is an excellent companion to the lecture slides.)
There will be a practice session for each student to take and analyze data from a model thermodynamic application system.

무은재학부 및 기계공학 전공 학생 수강과목이나, 타 과 학생들도 수강할 수 있음
Students are expected to spend outside the class at least an hour reviewing what they learned and will learn, in addition to approximately two or three hours doing homework.
Many students find it helpful to form study groups to discuss homework assignments (no copy from one another, though), which is encouraged.
