Aim
In the framework of the subject, the students acquire the technical thermodynamic knowledge that forms the physical basis of energy conversion technologies. They become familiar with the conceptual system and terminology of thermodynamics. They apply the principles of thermodynamics, medium and process models to equipment, machines and processes that are common in practice. In addition to imparting knowledge that can be used directly on the labor market, the subject prepares the foundations for later studies, such as, but not limited to, thermal energy machines, flow technology machines, energy conversion technologies, energy, etc.
Learning outcomes
Competences that can be acquired by completing the course
Knowledge
The student is aware of the conceptual system, terminology, and problem-solving and problem-solving methodology of technical thermodynamics. The student recalls the forms of appearance of energy, the forms of energy communication (interactions), and the steps of the general energy examination. The student generally interprets the state diagrams of pure media and some model media such as ideal gas. The student compares the physical and mathematical models of the ideal gas and real media. The student distinguishes between the behavior of ideal and real gases by defining the compressibility factor (real factor). The student organizes the laws, models, and quantities required for the energy analysis of closed systems. The student organizes the laws, models, and quantities necessary for the energy analysis of continuously flowing open systems. The student understands the concept of entropy and the practical significance of its application, as well as its connection with the second law. The student connects the limitations of the second principle with the operation of energy conversion cycles. The student interprets the replacement cycle processes, state changes, and energetic indicators of internal combustion engines and gas turbines. The student understands the operation of steam cycles, the basic operating principle of the equipment, the processes taking place in them, and the most important energy indicators and energy transports. The student knows the operating principles and energetic indicators of gas and steam refrigeration cycle processes and heat pumps.
Ability
The student uses the conceptual system, terminology, and problem-solving methodology of technical thermodynamics when solving tasks. The student calculates the energy transports occurring during the state changes of simple systems and the changes in the energy forms of the system. The student sketches the most important state diagrams (pT, Tv, pv, Ts, ph, hs) of an ideal gas and pure media. The student calculates the state indicators and material properties of ideal gas and real media. The student outlines the difference between the behavior of ideal and real gases through the compressibility factor (real factor). The student defines the laws, models, and energy transport quantities required for the energy analysis of closed systems. The student identifies the relevant and negligible energy and mother currents of continuously flowing open system equipment. The student uses the concept of entropy and the practical significance of its application, as well as its connection with the second law when solving tasks. The student applies the restrictions of the second principle during the analysis of energy conversion cycles and their sub-processes. The student identifies the substitute cycle processes, state changes, and energetic indicators of internal combustion engines and gas turbines. The student analyzes the operation of steam cycles, the basic operating principle of the equipment, the processes taking place in them, and the most important energy indicators and energy transports. The student differentiates between the operational bases and energetic indicators of gas and steam refrigeration cycle processes and heat pumps.
Attitude
The student strives for cooperation in expanding knowledge with the instructor and fellow students. The student expands and perfects their knowledge through continuous knowledge acquisition. The student is open to the use of information technology tools. The student expands your tool system for thermodynamic problem-solving. The student strives for accurate and error-free task solutions. The student strives to apply the principles of energy efficiency and environmental awareness in solving thermodynamic problems.
Independence and responsibility
The student independently thinks through thermodynamic tasks and problems and solves them based on given sources. The student appreciates well-founded critical comments. In some situations - as part of a team - the student cooperates with their fellow students in solving tasks. The student proposes solving problems with a systematic approach. The student cooperates with his peers in group projects.
Teaching methodology
At the lectures, knowledge is imparted in the framework of face-to-face teaching, which is connected to computational example tasks, thereby promoting the transfer of theory into practice. During the lectures, videos, animations and other visual tools help to impart knowledge better. During the practical sessions, the students acquire the solution techniques and principles necessary to apply the necessary knowledge through the calculation tasks related to the topics as part of their active participation.

General rules
Each topic includes a level assessment, which checks the mastery of the basic relationships and develops their application and promotes the acquisition of the required competencies. During the semester, students are required to complete two summative academic performance evaluations. The summative academic performance evaluations check and measure the existence of deeper knowledge, ability, attitude and independence-type competences acquired by the students in each topic.
Assessment methods
Detailed description of mid-term assessments
| Mid-term assessment No. 1 | ||
| Type: | diagnostic assessment | |
| Number: | 10 | |
| Purpose, description: | The relevant knowledge, ability, attitude, autonomous and responsibility competence elements are measured through the ability to apply the topics (chapters) covered by the subject. Diagnostic evaluations cannot be substituted. Two points can be obtained for each assessment. Level assessment assessments are to be completed online, in absentia form, after the knowledge of the topic has been transferred in the designated period. The aim of the level assessment assessments is for the students to continuously apply and master the application of the imparted knowledge during the semester, thus ensuring the long-term and high-level ability to apply the knowledge and ability-type competence elements, which helps to acquire the knowledge of professional subjects more effectively later on. | |
| Mid-term assessment No. 2 | ||
| Type: | summative assessment | |
| Number: | 2 | |
| Purpose, description: | The summative performance evaluations check and measure the existence of all competence elements conveyed by the subject. The scope of the first summative performance evaluation extends to the application of the first principle to open equipment, and the second one verifies the knowledge imparted afterwards. Their aim is to check and measure the existence of the competencies required for the comprehensive application of individual micro-knowledge. Summative assessments can be completed online in absentia. | |
| Mid-term assessment No. 3 | ||
| Type: | formative assessment, simple | |
| Number: | 2 | |
| Purpose, description: | A fakultatív jellegű házi feladatokkat többletpont szerezhető (2 x 5 pont). Teljesítésük nem kötelező. A házi feladatok az összegző tanulmányi teljesítményértékelésekre való felkészülést segítik. Legalább egy héttel az összegző tanulmányi teljesítményértékelések kezdeti időpontját megelőzően kerülnek kihirdetésre. Kizárólag online, távolléti formában teljesíthetők a tantárgy Moodle oldalán. Számításos feladatokból épülnek fel. A házi feladatokon szerzett többletpontot, akkor is figyelembe vesszük, ha a szintfelmérő értékeléseken és az összegző tanulmányi teljesítményértékeléseken szerzett pontok összege nem érik el az elégséges szintet. | |
