MCEN 3012 - Thermodynamics
Primary Instructor
-
Fall 2024
Explores fundamental concepts and basic theory, including first and second laws of thermodynamics, properties, states, thermodynamic functions and cycles. Degree credit not granted for this course and GEEN 3852 or AREN 2110.
MCEN 4012 - Renewable Fuels, Fuel Cells and Internal Combustion Engines
Primary Instructor
-
Spring 2023 / Spring 2024
With the accelerated availability of carbon-free and renewable fuels, we will explore high-efficiency, low-emissions fuel cell and internal combustion engine energy conversion technologies, preparing students to enter the rapidly changing fields of power and propulsion on the path to net-zero greenhouse gas emissions. Through thermodynamic modeling, systems engineering, and requirements flow-down, students will apply the fundamentals of thermodynamics, fluids and heat transfer, combustion and electrochemistry for fuel cells and IC engines. Recommended prerequisites: MCEN 4152/5152 or MCEN 4194/5194. Same as MCEN 5012.
MCEN 4228 - Special Topics in Mechanical Engineering
Primary Instructor
-
Spring 2020 / Spring 2021 / Spring 2022 / Fall 2023
Subject matter to be selected from topics of current interest. May be repeated up to 15 credit hours. Same as MCEN 5228.
