ENGR 209 - Introduction to Conservation Laws and Thermodynamics

(4)

FA, SP. This course introduces several foundational engineering topics. Included are single and multi-component process material and energy balances (conservation laws), the first and second laws of thermodynamics and heat transfer. Study of chemical kinetics and equilibrium demonstrates the link between science and design begun in ENGR 106 and also broadens the student’s knowledge of chemistry. Issues of stewardship of materials and resources are addressed. Laboratory Prerequisites: ENGR 106 and MATH 172 or permission of the instructor.
