- Third Party Resource Title: Chemical Engineering Thermodynamics Project
- Third Party Resource Link: https://serc.carleton.edu/teaching_computation/workshop_2019/activities/230829.html
- Description: This activity is a project designed to introduce undergraduate chemical engineering students to chemical engineering thermodynamics in the context of MATLAB. The project requires students to learn concepts they will encounter in their thermodynamics courses, such as the first law of thermodynamics and applying it to a system to perform an energy balance, the difference between state and path functions, and the refrigeration cycle and the role that condensers, heat exchangers, expansion valves, evaporators, and compressors play in it.
