CHEME 3130 - Chemical Engineering Thermodynamics

Fall. 4 credits. Letter grades only.

Prerequisite: CHEME 2200.

N. Abbott.

Studies the first and second laws and their consequences for chemical systems. Covers thermodynamic properties of pure fluids, solids, and mixtures; phase and chemical reaction equilibrium; heat effects in batch and flow processes; and power cycles and refrigeration.

Outcome 1: Apply fundamental concepts of thermodynamics to engineering applications.

Outcome 2: Work as a team to analyze and design a thermodynamic system (e.g. power generator) and communicate results in a written report.
