Introduction to Thermodynamics

Explore energy, heat, and the laws that govern how they transform. Essential for mechanical, chemical, and aerospace engineers.

Start course

Thermodynamics is the science of energy and its transformations. It underpins engines, refrigerators, power plants, and every process that involves heat.

This course introduces the fundamental concepts and the first two laws of thermodynamics, giving you the vocabulary and intuition to tackle real energy systems.

Lessons

1
Energy and Systems
Define thermodynamic systems, boundaries, and forms of energy.
2
The First and Second Laws
Understand conservation of energy and the direction of natural processes.
