The course covers the fundamental concepts of thermodynamics and develops the tools for performance evaluation of energy conversion systems. This approach includes the definition / identification / study of control volumes and systems with their thermodynamic transformation processes, involving the law of conservation of mass, the two Laws of Thermodynamics and the properties of the substances involved in the transformation.
Introductory Concepts and Definitions: open and closed systems (control systems and volumes). Thermodynamic variables: Intensive / Extensive. Process and thermodynamic balance.
Substances: Properties of pure substances and equations of state. The ideal and real gas model. Phase shift fluids.
Mass Conservation Law. The First Law of Thermodynamics. Forms of energy transfer. The Second Law of Thermodynamics andCorollaries. Entropy: Clausius inequality and definition of entropy. Reversible and irreversible processes. Isentropic efiiciency.Reynolds Transport Theorem: The relationship between closed and open systems.
Fundamental Equation of Substance: Mathematical and Maxwell Relations. Relationship between thermodynamic properties and their derivatives
Thermodynamic Cycles: Carnot, Rankine, Brayton, Refrigeration and Heat Pump, Otto and Diesel.
Brief introduction to thermostatistics.
The teaching of the discipline is supported by theoretical and practical classes where the exposition of the subject is supported bypractical examples, thus intending to promote learning based on problem solving, reinforcing the practical component, active learning, autonomous work and accountability of the student. Additionally, the nature of the subject being addressed is subject to contextualization and framing in the studies of societal problems and industrial processes.
The assessment model incorporates elements of continuous assessment in the context of active learning compatible with the significant reduction in the weight of assessment per exam. Continuous assessment with four mini-tests and a final exam (50% +50%). Final grade higher than 17v / 20v the student can go to oral (or the grade is reduced to 17v / 20v)
