Engineering Thermodynamics

Engineering thermodynamics is the branch of physics that deals with the relationships between heat, energy, and work within systems in equilibrium. It studies how energy is transformed and conserved in processes, such as engines or refrigeration. Key concepts include temperature, pressure, and volume, which help describe the state of a system, and laws that govern energy transfer, like the conservation of energy. This field is essential for designing efficient machines and understanding natural processes, helping engineers harness energy for practical applications while ensuring stability and efficiency in operations.
