1.
Outline
Lectures will address the following topics, and students will then solve problems related to these topics in order to deepen their understanding of them.
1. Temperature, thermal expansion and ideal gases
2. Heat and the first law of thermodynamics
3. Kinetic theory of gases
4. Heat engines, entropy and the second law of thermodynamics
2.
Objectives
Heat-related phenomena are not always intuitively obvious. Therefore, students will gain an abstract understanding of thermodynamics by examining examples that are as familiar as possible. In these classes, we will cover the contents listed below in the outline, with the goal of gaining an understanding of the basic concepts and an overview of the science of thermodynamics.
3.
Grading Policy
Evaluation is based on the results of the mid-term exam (rating rate 25%) and the final exam (rating rate 75%).
In addition, mid-term test as feedback, we will explain the problem after the final exam.
The intermediate test results should be returned to each person and be understood through practice questions distributed separately. In addition, before and after the midterm exam, we will give an overview of the entire course and explain the main points of learning.

Textbook and Reference
R. A. Serway, translated by Hiroyuki Matsumura, "Physics for scientists and engineers - II, Thermodynamics", published by Gakujutsu Tosho Co., Ltd. ISBN978-4-87361-072-6
5.
Requirements (Assignments)
At the end of each chapter of the textbook is a "Summary" page. It briefly summarizes keywords, terms and basic explanations. As well as reading, let's put together the points in a notebook. If you do not know what is described on the "Summary" page, read back the text many times.
In addition, write down exercises such as "question", "problems" and "additional problems" listed after that on the note. If you do not get the correct answer, read the text of the textbook again.
More than 36 hours are necessary for the above-mentioned preliminary review in the period concerned.
6.
Note
Even during the lecture, be sure to bring a scientific calculator, as it will be calculated as a simple practice.
7.
Schedule
1. Temperature, Thermal Expansion and Ideal Gas (1)
Temperature and Zeroth Law of Thermodynamics, Thermometer and Temperature Scale
2. Temperature, Thermal Expansion and Ideal gas (2)
Constant Volume Gas Thermometer, Kelvin's Temperature Scale
3. Temperature, Thermal Expansion and Ideal gas (3)
Thermal Expansion of Solid and Liquid, Macroscopic Behavior of Ideal Gas
4. Heat and Thermal Energy, Mechanical Equivalent of Heat, Heat Capacity and Specific Heat, Latent Heat
5. Work and Heat in Thermodynamic Processes
6. The First Law of Thermodynamics
7. Application of The First Law of Thermodynamics, Heat Transfer and Thermal Insulation
8. Kinetic Theory of Gases, Molecular Model of Ideal Gas, Molecular Interpretation of Temperature
9. Specific Heat of Ideal Gas, Adiabatic Process of Ideal Gas
10. Intermediate Examination, Explanation of Problems
11. Sound Velocity of Gas, Equal Distribution of Energy
12. Velocity Distribution of Molecules, Mean Free Path
13. Van der Waals' Equation of State
14. Heat Engine, Second Law of Thermodynamics, Efficiency of Heat Engine
15. Reversible Process and Irreversible Process, Carnot Engine, Entropy
