Suggestions on
Preparation and
Review For preparation, read the textbook.  For review, read the textbook and the handouts and review the derivation of all the equations by yourself.   Solve the chapter-end problems.

Requirements

Grading Method Your grade will be based on the final exam (70%) and the assignments (30%).

Practical Experience

Summary of Practical Experience and Class Contents based on it

Message Thermodynamics is rich in concepts and contains confusing vocabulary. It is traditionally thought to be a difficult and challenging topic to study. Read the textbook many times over and solve equations by yourself.

Other Do not hesitate to ask questions.

Please fill in the class improvement questionnaire which is carried out on all classes.
Instructors will reflect on your feedback and utilize the information for improving their teaching.
