EGET 1300 - PRINCIPLES OF ENERGY ENGINEERING


Minimum Credits: 3
Maximum Credits: 3
This course familiarizes students with the fundamental principles of physics and chemistry as apply to the conversion of fuels into usable energy. The course will present mathematical models and engineering calculations accounting for mass and energy flow through energy conversion systems. Examples of energy systems covered include: combustion chemistry, electrochemical conversions, Faraday's law of induction, nuclear reactions, and photo-electric excitation. In addition, students will learn to apply conservation principles to determine the energy efficiency of prominent conversion devices
