Created by Er. Himanshu Vasishta, Last Updated 05-Sep-2019, Language:English

Description

Thermodynamics is the branch of science concerned with heat and temperature and their relation to energy and work. It states that the behavior of these quantities is governed by the four laws of thermodynamics, irrespective of the composition or specific properties of the material or system in question. These video classes have been developed based on the latest GATE syllabus and will be useful for Mechanical Engineering students as well as for GATE exams preparation.

Audience

These video classes have been designed for Mechanical Engineering students, especially those who are preparing for GATE examination. It will also be helpful for students in preparing them for their Engineering syllabus.
