OBJECTIVE

To introduce fundamental concepts in thermodynamics, heat tramsfer, propulsion
and refrigeration and air conditioning.
UNIT I BASIC THERMODYNAMICS 16

Systems, Zeroth low, First law. Steady flow energy equation. Heat and work transfer
in flow and non-flow processes. Second law, Kelvin-Planck statement - Clausius
statement - Concept of Entropy, Clausius inequality, Entropy change in non-flow
processes. Properties of gases and vapours.

UNIT II AIR CYCLE AND COMPRESSORS 12
Camot, Otto, Diesel, Dual combustion and Brayton cycles. Air standard efficiency .
Mean effective pressure, Reciprocating compressors.

UNIT III STEAM AND JET PROPULSION 12
Properties of steam – Rankine cycle – Steam Nozzles – Simple jet propulsion system
– Thrust rocket motor – Specific impulse.

UNIT IV REFRIGERATION AND AIR-CONDITIONING 10
Principles of Psychrometry and refrigeration - Vapour compression - Vapour
absorption types - Co-efficient of performance, Properties of refrigerants – Basic
Principle and types Air conditioning.

UNIT V HEAT TRANSFER 10
Conduction in parallel, radial and composite wall – Basics of Convective heat transfer
- Fundamentals of Radiative heat transfer – Flow through heat exchangers.

L = 45, T = 15, TOTAL : 60 PERIODS

(Use of standard thermodynamic tables, Mollier diagram and Refrigerant property
tables are permitted)
