JNTUH B.Tech 2nd year Thermodynamics and Kinetics gives you detail Thermodynamics and Kinetics Engineering R13 year subject. It will be help full you to understand you complete curriculum of the year.
Objective
- This course is designed to emphasize clear cut understanding of the laws of thermodynamics, calculation of work in various thermodynamic processes, Free Energy Functions, their significance in determining the feasibility of metallurgical processes, and derivations associated with it. To obviate the shortcoming of Thermodynamics, Kinetic aspects of Chemical reactions with necessary equations is also dealt in detail.
UNIT-I
Fundamentals and basic laws of thermodynamics: Objectives and limitations to thermodynamics, concepts of system and state, thermodynamic variables, thermodynamic equilibrium. Reversible and irreversible processes, Zeroth law of thermodynamics First Law of thermodynamics: Nature of first law, relationship between heat and work, internal energy, calculations of work in reversible adiabatic processes, reversible isothermal, and enthalpy change with temperature (Kirchoff’s Equation)
UNIT-II
Second law of thermodynamics: Efficiency of a cyclic process, Carnot cycle, carnot theorem, second law of thermodynamics, concept of entropy, entropy and quantification of irreversibility, reversible processes. Third law of thermodynamics: Background of third law deductions from third law, applications of third law, and other methods of obtaining ∆S0 for a reaction,
UNIT-III
Free energy functions: Definition of Helmholtz and Gibbs free energy functions, meaning of thermodynamically possible process, determination of ∆G from thermal data useful relationships between free energies and other thermodynamic functions, Maxwell’s equation and Gibbs-Helmholtz equation. Fugacity, activity and equilibrium constant, variation of the equilibrium constant with temperature

Outcome:
The student will be thorough in establishing the feasibility of metallurgical reactions via determination of free energy change as a function of temperature. He will be able to solve the numerical problems on determination of equilibrium constant, vapour pressure of an element, order of a chemical reaction.
