Course abstract
This course deals with the gas power cycles. One part of the course is on IC engines and it focuses on the thermodynamic cycles for different fuels suitable for automobiles. Other part of the course has emphasis on thermodynamic cycle of aircraft engines and the components of the aircraft engine. Thus this course would provide an understanding on electricity generation or transportation application using gas as working medium.
