Thermodynamics online course offered by IIT Bombay

Thermodynamics is a free online course offered by IIT Bombay conducted by the Edx. Introduction to basic concepts and applications of thermodynamics in mechanical engineering.
About this course
  • ME209.1x is a basic course in thermodynamics, designed for students of mechanical engineering.
  • We will study the terms and concepts used in thermodynamics, with precise definitions.
  • The three laws of thermodynamics (zeroth, first, and second) will be explored in detail, and the properties of materials will be studied.

What you'll learn
  • How to relate the zeroth, first and second laws to basic thermodynamic properties, like energy, temperature, and entropy, and to interactions like work and heat
  • How to interpret entropy change and entropy production and the related terms isentropic and reversible
  • How to derive property relations in an easy manner, and get used to the steam tables
  • Solve problems by applying the first and second law of thermodynamics

Duration:
12 weeks
Timings: 8 – 10 hours per week
