Course Objectives & General Content: A detailed description of the course content can be found at the end of this handout. Learning Outcomes: By the end of this course, students should be able to: 1. Understand and apply engineering thermodynamic concepts involving pressure, temperature, specific volume, internal energy, enthalpy, entropy, work, and heat. 2. Perform 1st law analysis of closed and open engineering devices, systems, and cycles. 3. Perform 2nd law analysis of closed and open engineering devices, systems, and cycles. 4. Determine properties of matter for use in thermodynamic analysis using: a) property tables, b) ideal gas equations, c) incompressible substance equations, and d) generalized charts. 5. Develop problem solving strategies and practices and apply them to solve multi-step problems. Marking Scheme: Activity (A)Synchronous Due/Scheduled Weight Online Assignments Synchronous Due Fridays at 14:30 8% Written Assignments Synchronous Due Fridays at 14:30 8% Midterm Examination Synchronous Thursday October 26, 19:00 - 20:30 34% Final Examination Synchronous Thursday December 21, 9:00 - 12:00 50% The Faculty recommended grade point average for a 200 level course is 2.8. Instructors have the leeway to deviate from this average and can assign grades based on their own scheme. All grades are approved by the department chair (or delegate). The office of the Dean has final oversight on all grades. Term Work All term work solutions will be posted no later than the last day of classes. All term work will be returned to students by the final day of classes, with the exception of major term work due in the last week of classes. The latter will be returned by the day of the final examination or the last day of the examination period if there is no final examination in the course as per university policy; instructors will make accommodations to return these term work. It is the responsibility of the student to pick up all their term work at the specified time and place. Any unreturned term work, shall be retained and then shredded six months after the deadline for reappraisal and grade appeals. Final examinations will be kept for one year as required by university guidelines and the Government of Alberta's Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act. Additional Notes The final grade on the letter grading system will be arrived at by a combination of absolute measures and distributions of grades based on experience of instructors.

Based on results in previous years, we can guarantee that we will submit a grade of A or higher for those achieving a mark of 92% or higher (that is, based on distributions, the cut-off mark to get an A may be 92% or it may be lower than 92%, but it will not be higher), and that we will submit a grade of D or higher for those achieving a mark of 55% or higher (that is, based on distributions, the cut-off mark to get a D may be 55% or it may be lower than 55%, but it will not be higher). Minimum marks required for other letter grades vary from year to year and cannot be predicted ahead of time. Note that this information applies to grades submitted by instructors; students should note that grades are not final until approved by the Dean. All examinations are closed book and closed notes. Data and formula sheets, like the ones provided on the class website, will be given with each examination. The examinations are consolidated and will be held on the dates shown above. The locations for the midterm examinations will be announced in class. Calculator Policy Only approved non-programmable calculators are permitted in examinations. Any calculator taken into an examination must have a sticker identifying it as an acceptable non-programmable calculator (gold sticker). Students can purchase calculators at the University Bookstore with the stickers already affixed. Calculators purchased elsewhere can be brought to the Student Services where the appropriate sticker will be affixed to the calculator. Text and References (Mandatory): Y. A. Çengel, M. A. Boles, Mehmet Kanolu, "Thermodynamics, An Engineering Approach", 9th Edition (International Edition), McGraw-Hill, 2019 (both electronic and hard copies are available). You can also use older or newer versions of the textbook. A list of sections of the textbook to be covered is given at the end of this handout. Students are encouraged to read the relevant sections of the textbook before the due dates listed. Students can read the ebook directly, or complete the SmartBook reading assignments. No grades are assigned to the ebook or SmartBook reading assignments. The textbook will not be required for access to assignments for grades or for access to data tables, which are posted separately in eClass. Older editions of the textbook may also be used (but you may need to do the conversion to current chapter numbers, etc.). Note that the required textbook covers all course material and can be very useful if you prefer not to take notes, or in the event you miss a class. Website: eClass Previous Examples of Evaluative Materials: The eclass website for this course contains the handouts, assignments, assignments solutions, and examples of midterm tests and final examinations from previous years.
