Thur.，No.4 Comprehensive Building, Room 437 Learning method：Preview + Attend lectures + Make records + Review + Do homework + Read reference materials Advices for the beginners Attending and participating in all lectures Reading the textbook and reviewing your class notes on a regular basis (everyday) Completing and studying all the homework assignments. (everyday) If you neglect any aspect of this trilogy, you almost guarantee yourself a poor grade. Note This is concept dominant course. A significant problem solving exercise is absolutely necessary. Chapter 1 INTRODUCTION ANDBASIC CONCEPTS Objectives Identify the unique vocabulary associated with thermodynamics through the precise definition of basic concepts to form a sound foundation for the development of the principles of thermodynamics. Review the metric SI and the English unit systems. Explain the basic concepts of thermodynamics such as system, state, state postulate, equilibrium, process, and cycle. Review concepts of temperature, temperature scales, pressure, and absolute and gage pressure. §1.1 Thermodynamics and Energy Thermodynamics: The science of energy. Energy: The ability to cause changes. The name thermodynamics stems from the Greek words therme (heat) and dynamis (power). Continued Conservation of energy principle: During an interaction, energy can change from one form to another but the total amount of energy remain
