thermodynamics. System boundaries. Types of energy systems. Energy
classification. Energy balance of steady-flow open system. Closed cycles.
Evaluation criteria and efficiencies. Second law of thermodynamics. Work
transfer in reversible adiabatic processes. Work transfer in non-adiabatic
processes without mechanical friction. Work transfer in adiabatic expansion
processes with mechanical friction in steady-flow heat engines. Work transfer
in compression processes. Several sources of non-adiabatic process pathes.
2.
