COURSE OBJECTIVES* [linked to Student Outcomes]
|
(Numbers shown in brackets refer to department Student Outcomes – Please ask Dr. Hollis to check these numbers) http://www.eng.fsu.edu/me/about_us/accred-info.html Introduce basic concepts and terminology of thermo-fluid systems [1ab]
Be able to use the first and second law of thermodynamics in basic process and cycle computations. [1ab, 5a] Perform thermodynamic computations on the Stirling and selected other cycles. [1ab, 5a] Identify and analyze the principles of operation of the Stirling engine built in the companion lab course. [1ab] |

COURSE OUTCOMES* [Course Objective]
|
*(Numbers shown in brackets are links to Course Objectives above) By the end of the semester, students should be able to: Compute hydrostatic pressure differences [1]. Relate pressure to force and work [1]. Use thermodynamic property tables [1,2]. Perform simple graphical analysis of the phase that a substance is in [1]. Compute work performed by a substance during various processes [1,2,3,4]. Apply the first law of thermodynamics and mass conservation to control masses and steady state control volumes [1, 2, 3, 4]. Apply the second law of thermodynamics to control masses and steady state control volumes [1, 2, 3, 4]. Plot basic thermodynamic processes and cycles in Pv, Tv, and Ts plots [1,2,3,4]. Identify violations of the Clausius and Kelvin-Planck forms of the second law [1,4]. Perform thermodynamic calculations on the Stirling, Otto, Diesel, and Carnot cycles. This includes the work, heat transfer, and change in state properties for each process, as well as for the full cycle [1, 2, 3, 4]. Compute efficiencies and second law limitations for the above cycles [1, 2]. Identify thermodynamic opportunities in the design of devices implementing those cycles [4]. |
