Course content

12 sections • 64 lectures • 23h 0m total length

Introduction to the subject contents14:17
In this topic, contents of the subject is explained. there are total six units and each unit will be discussed in detail in consequent sections. This is just guideline for the FE students to know @ the syllabus.
Unit-I : Energy Sources and conversions12:53
Unit I Introduction of energy sources & its conversion (06 Hrs) Energy sources: Thermal energy, Hydropower energy, Nuclear energy, Solar energy, Geothermal energy, Wind energy, Hydrogen energy, Biomass energy and Tidal energy. Grades of Energy. (Numerical on efficiency calculation of thermal power plant )

Biomass energy is a renewable energy source and is basically becoming need at remote places, villages for conversion into useful energy forms such as electricity, cooking etc. Its therefore essential to get the knowledge of bioenergy and its applications and merits / Demerits etc.
Tidal Energy20:58
Geothermal Energy19:25
Various efforts are being made to find an alternate to conventional source of energy i.e. Coal, Petrol / Diesel nuclear energy in view of their depletion at fast rate . Geothermal energy source is one more alternative non conventional renewable source of energy which hopeful to meet certain demand of electricity in future.
Fuel Cells14:01
Fuel Cells a popular name now a days being used for Electric vehicles is a promising alternate to Conventional source of energy such as petrol / diesel. Hence it is very important to have the idea of Fuel cell technology which still in research phase but definitely will emerge as a strong source of energy in near future. So we will study some more about Fuel cells in this part II.

Measuring Units12:06
In this unit-II we are dealing with Thermal power plant, Nuclear power plant, Hydel, wind, Tidal, Geothermal, Bioenergy and Fuel cells in total 10 lectures with separate videos and resource files which will help to understand the basic concepts with ease and building up the confidence in the subject.
To have the basic measuring units which are widely used in mechanical engineering / Thermodynamics so as to solve any numericals based on the subject. It is also to know the conversion factors and other units of same physical quantity. Most of the students confused or not so much of confident while solving numericals due to lack of knowledge of conversions. It is to be noted that numericals give us more marks in lesser time than writing the theory part. So its essential to have some basic idea about measuring units.
Basics of Thermodynamics22:43
Thermodynamics is a branch of Mechanical Engineering which deals with the study of Heat and its conversion to forms of energy. The basic concepts like system, property, state, process, cycle etc. need to be known before going through the topic. Basic definitions to be studied and explained in this topic.
Basics of First Law of Thermodynamics23:09
To study Zeroth Law of thermodynamics and concept of First law of thermodynamics and also Jules law for first law of thermodynamics. First law of thermodynamics deals with conversion of one form of energy into another form.
second and Third law of thermodynamics29:10
This topic describes the definitions of second law of thermodynamics and comparison of kelvin and Clasius statements. Carnot's theorem. Refrigerators and heat pump basics
Applications of Second Law of Thermodynamics -Heat Pumps-Refrigeration31:28
Application of Second law of thermodynamics are Heat pumps and Refrigerators
Heat pumps and refrigerators work on the principle of second law of thermodynamics. These devices are very useful in domestic applications hence need to study fundamentals of these devices, their performance in terms of COP. Numericals on COP to study the performance of heat pumps and refrigerators.
