Description
After a reminder of classical mechanics, we'll look at the fundamental quantities of thermodynamics: elementary and macroscopic work...
The heat/temperature distinction will be explained at length.
The notion of pressure will be explained macroscopically, but with a microscopic interpretation.
Then, with a historical approach, we'll show how Principles 1 and 2 came to be formulated.
From there, applications will be seen: cycles, perfect/real gas....
Thanks to the introduction of changes of state, examples (critical point) will be shown.
We will finish with thermics: essentially diļ¬usion. Depending on the time available, we'll also cover radiation.
