Chemical Engineering Thermodynamics

This course addresses the principles of classical thermodynamics and focuses on applying them to various unit operations and chemical processes. The course will begin with a review of the first and second laws and their application to closed and open systems. Power and refrigeration cycles are covered. Equations of state (virial, PR, SRK) are detailed. Starting with ideal gas mixtures and ideal solutions, the concepts of bubble and dew points are introduced to enable flash calculations and design of process components.
