Introduces the fundamental concepts and principles of thermodynamics with an emphasis on understanding how these basic physical principles can be used to solve numerical problems. Covers the properties of pure substances, control volume analysis, first law of thermodynamics, ideal gas law, second law of thermodynamics, and thermodynamic cycles. Synthesizes as a primary goal basic science (physics) and mathematics for the analysis and design of thermodynamic systems. Recommended corequisites: MCEN 1024 or CHEN 1201 or CHEN 1211 or CHEM 1113 or CHEM 1400.
