Thermodynamic Lecture Demonstrations
Kurt Wick
Philip Johnson
University of Minnesota
If a picture is worth a thousand words, imagine the power a dynamic, animated simulation would add to your lectures on thermodynamics!
Thermodynamics Lecture Demonstrations is a collection of ten simulations that demonstrate major thermodynamic cycles and concepts, including isochoric, adiabatic, and isothermal processes; the Carnot cycle; the two- and four-cycle Otto engine; and the diesel engine. Each simulation deals with a single concept, and the graphical displays make the relationship between volume, pressure, temperature, and entropy clear and easy to understand.
The demo screens are uncluttered and free of explanatory text. This enables you to select and emphasize the points you think are important. There is no predetermined outline, so you can follow your own lecture format at your own pace. Only nine keys are required to run the demonstrations, and you never need to enter any numerical data, so you can concentrate fully on your lecture - and your students. 42 pp.
