Thermodynamic Cycles

Module code: EMS502U

Credits: 15.0
Semester: SEM2

Contact: Dr Saqib Jivani

The module starts with basic thermodynamic concepts and applies these to flow processes by deriving the steady flow energy equation (SFEE). The SFEE is then used to analyse a range of engineering devices such as compressors and turbines and explores the concept of isentropic efficiency. These devices are then combined to form power and refrigeration cycles and the efficiency of such cycles is investigated.
