Thermodynamics is a fundamental discipline that plays an essential role in many fields of engineering, from the design of energy systems to the understanding of chemical and physical processes. This course first introduces the basic concepts, including thermodynamic systems, state variables (temperature, pressure, volume) and the different types of thermodynamic processes. It then examines the properties of pure substances and the behavior of gases, whether ideal or real, through equations of state. The course also explores key concepts such as internal energy, enthalpy, entropy, and the fundamental laws, particularly the first and second laws of thermodynamics. Finally, it addresses the conditions of system equilibrium, the criteria for spontaneous evolution, and phase transitions, providing a comprehensive understanding of energy phenomena in various scientific and engineering fields.
