This unit will investigate the impact of the fundamental laws of thermodynamics on steady and unsteady state processes. Phase and chemical equilibrium will also be investigated in the context of the Gibbs free energy of a system.Methods to critically analyse data and/or equations related to particular processes will be explored. Students will be equipped with the tools and confidence to tackle unfamiliar problems using these principles.
Unit was previously coded ENS5557
On completion of this unit students should be able to:
Students will attend on campus classes as well as engage in learning activities through ECU Blackboard.

This unit will investigate the impact of the fundamental laws of thermodynamics on steady and unsteady state processes. Phase and chemical equilibria will be investigated in the context of the Gibbs free energy of a system. Methods to critically analyse data and/or equations related to equilibrium systems will be studied. Students will be equipped with the tools and confidence to tackle the problems of phase and chemical equilibria commonly encountered in industrial processes.
