AT6401 Applied Thermodynamics and Heat Transfer

This document outlines the objectives and units of the course AT6401 Applied Thermodynamics and Heat Transfer. The course aims to familiarize students with applied thermodynamics and heat transfer concepts. It is divided into 5 units which cover various thermodynamic cycles like Otto, Diesel and Brayton cycles; refrigeration cycles; heat transfer by conduction, convection and radiation; and external and internal forced convection and free convection. The course outcomes are that students will understand applications of thermodynamics and heat transfer in engineering fields.

heat transfer. (Use of Standard and approved Steam Table, Mollier Chart,
Compressibility Chart and Psychrometric Chart permitted)
UNIT I GAS POWER CYCLES 10
Air standard cycles-Otto-Diesel-Dual-Work output, Efficiency and MEP
calculations – comparison of the cycles for same compression ratio and heat
addition, same compression ratio and heat rejection, same peak pressure, peak
temperature and heat rejection, same peak pressure and heat input, same peak
pressure and work output, Brayton cycle
UNIT II RECIPROCATING AIRCOMPRESSORS & REFRIGERATION
CYCLES 10
Single acting and double acting air compressors, work required, effect of
clearance volume, volumetric efficiency, isothermal efficiency, free air delivery,
