| Properties of Pure Substances , Phase Changes Class 5 |
| Understand the concept of latent heat as it relates to a change of phase. 2) Understand the concept of sensible heat as it relates to a temperature change. 3) Understand how P-v and T-v diagrams depict properties of multiphase systems. 4) Understand and apply the property of Quality with regard to saturated liquid-vapor mixtures. 5) Analyze a multiphase closed system process. |

| Mechanical Work for Closed Systems Class 4 |
| At the completion of the lecture, students should: 1) Identify the polytropic relationship, Pvn = Const. 2) Identify and apply special values of “n” for specific processes. 3) Use the P-v diagram to plot processes |
|
| Ideal Gas Assumptions Class 02 |
| Ideal Gas Assumptions, Properties of Pure Substances, & Property Tables - At the completion of the lecture, students should: 1) Identify when it is reasonable to use the ideal gas equation of state. 2) Identify when use of the Ideal Gas Equation is not warranted. 3) Locate and use the Property Tables in the appendix for superheated steam and refrigerant to obtain properties of interest for a given state. |

| Introduction to Thermodynamics, Class 1 |
| Thermodynamics is the study of energy movement: Energy can take many forms; in this course, we will study Work, Heat, and mass transport as ways to transfer energy. |

| Entropy Explained, With Sheep |
| What is entropy, really? Why does it always keep increasing? Why don’t eggshells uncrack, or wine glasses unshatter? In this piece, my goal is to give you the tools to answer these questions. |

| Thermodynamic Functions , Typical Symbols and Units |
| Thermodynamic Functions, Typical Symbols and Units. Definitions: Intensive properties are independent of mass. Extensive properties are proportional to mass. Specific properties are extensive properties that are expressed on a per-mass basis; shown in lowercase. |

| Isentropic Flow Relationships |
| A isentropic flow is when a fluid flow is both adiabatic and reversible. That is, no heat is added to the flow, and no energy transformations occur due to friction or dissipative effects. |
|
| Van der Waals Constants for Gases |
| Van der Waals, constant a is due to force of attraction and b due to the infinite size molecules. The greater the value q and smaller the value b, larger the liquefaction. |
