A sample from this course

One topic, as StudyPath teaches it.

Basic concepts: system, boundary and control volume

This topic introduces the language of thermodynamics: what a system is, where its boundary lies, and how a control volume is defined for flow processes. It matters for the exam because nearly every thermodynamic analysis begins by choosing the correct system and boundary before applying conservation laws.
