Chemical Engineering Thermodynamics: Course Description
In the 'Chemical Engineering Thermodynamics' OpenCourseWare, graduate students learn about statistical and classical thermodynamics and how to unite the principles, laws/postulates and concepts for quantitative thermodynamics. The course examines these applications on a molecular and microscopic level so students can gain the essential functions of their properties. Students will also learn about basic postulates of classical thermodynamics, constitutive property models of mixtures and pure materials, and criteria of stability and equilibria. The course also features lessons on chemical and phase equilibria of multicomponent systems. The MIT course was taught by Professors Jefferson Tester and Bernhardt Trout in 2003 as a lecture class held twice a week. Graduate students taking this course should have previous knowledge in thermodynamics and kinetics and a basic understanding in chemical engineering thermodynamics.
This OpenCourseWare includes study materials, readings, exams and problem set assignments. If you are interested in taking this free course, visit the chemical engineering thermodynamics course page.
