E – 2000 What every energy engineer needs to know about Thermodynamics and Liquefication Systems Part (2 of 3)

This learning is given in 3 parts. This is part 2.

• Part 1 was based on understanding thermodynamic concepts and the use of pressure enthalpy charts.
• Part 2 builds onto part 1 but uses thermodynamic software instead of pressure enthalpy charts for analysis and goes into additional depth.
• Part 3 builds on parts 1 and 2 to apply thermodynamics to understand air conditioning and refrigeration systems from ¼ hp size units to 300,000 hp size units.

This Part 2 course introduces the learner to the use of thermodynamic software in lieu of using charts for performing thermodynamic analyses. The use of such software is much more time efficient, accurate and flexible. Thermodynamic software allows the learner to dive deeper in their understanding of the field of thermodynamics. In this part we will build on the learning of Part 1 and expand our ability to deal with mixtures rather than solely the pure fluid of methane.
