THRM 405 - Fundamentals of Engineering

Description
This course enables the student to obtain a level of proficiency in both applied engineering fluid mechanics and introductory thermodynamics, to apply those principles to scientific and technological problems, to critically analyze fluid systems, and to solve practical applications. Topics include basic fluid properties, fluid pressure, manometers, flow rate, Bernoulli’s equation, fluid laminar and turbulent flow, Reynold’s number, major and minor friction losses, pipeline systems, pump selection, heat, temperature, internal energy, laws of thermodynamics, calorimetry, and ideal gases in a closed system.
