SUMMARY

The discussion focuses on finding supplementary video resources for a thermodynamics course using the textbook "Fundamentals of Engineering Thermodynamics" by Moran and Shapiro. A recommended resource is the UC Irvine online course MAE 91: Introduction to Thermodynamics, which features video lectures available on YouTube. Participants express appreciation for the textbook's comprehensive treatment of the second law of thermodynamics and suggest an additional resource, "Introduction to Chemical Engineering Thermodynamics" by Smith and van Ness, as a valuable reference.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of thermodynamics principles
  • Familiarity with the textbook "Fundamentals of Engineering Thermodynamics" by Moran and Shapiro
  • Basic knowledge of online learning platforms
  • Access to YouTube for video lectures
NEXT STEPS
  • Explore the UC Irvine MAE 91: Introduction to Thermodynamics course on YouTube

TL;DR
To accompany "Fundamentals of Engineering Thermodynamics" by Moran, Shapiro, et al.
Hello,

I am beginning a course in thermodynamics in which we will be using the textbook "Fundamentals of Engineering Thermodynamics" (Moran, Shapiro Et al.).

Does anyone know of a video series which covers similar topics as in textbook? I have the textbook, I am just looking for a supplement as I have relied heavily on Khan Academy, Youtube, etc. in other courses to help me get by.

If it is helpful I can post the table of contents or find a link to them.

Thanks

I found a resource which appears to be very close to the text. UC Irvine has an online course MAE 91: Into to Thermodynamics with video lectures on YouTube.

If anyone has another resource they'd like to add that'd be great too.
 
Moran et al, in my judgment, is a wonderful textbook. I particularly like its treatment of the 2nd law of thermodynamics. I think you're really going to like the course. Another good book is Introduction to Chemical Engineering Thermodynamics by Smith and van Ness.
