Thermodynamics & Steam Engineering

This course provides a practical understanding of thermodynamics and steam engineering used in power and process industries. It explains the basic principles of heat, temperature, pressure, work, and energy in simple terms. Participants learn the properties and behavior of steam and how steam is generated, used, and controlled in industrial systems. The course covers boilers, steam turbines, condensers, feedwater systems, and other major steam-cycle components. It explains the Rankine cycle and its role in thermal power generation. Participants also learn about steam tables, enthalpy, entropy, and common thermodynamic calculations. The course introduces methods for improving steam-system efficiency and reducing energy losses. It covers common operational issues such as heat loss, steam leakage, poor insulation, and inefficient equipment performance. Practical examples help participants understand how thermodynamic principles are applied in real industrial operations. Overall, the course helps engineers and technical professionals improve their knowledge of steam systems, equipment performance, energy efficiency, and safe operation.
