COLLEGE OF ENGINEERING

THERMODYNAMICcS. I; 4 cr. A study of the laws of heat and me-
mechanical energy and their application to air compressors and ex-
ternal and internal combustion engines, followed by a study of fuels
and theoretical combustion. Prerequisites: Physics 51, 52; Mathe-
matics 54, 55. Required of junior mechanical engineers. Mr. L. A.
Wilson, Mr. G. C. Wilson.

THERMODYNAMIcs. II; 4 cr. Continuation of 8S. and G.1. A study
of the laws of vapors and their application to various types of steam
engines and turbines, with special attention to the economy and effi-
ciency of various designs of such prime movers. This is followed by
the principles of combustion, boilers, power plant auxiliaries, and re-
frigerating machinery. Prerequisite: S. and G. 1.. Mr. L. A. Wil-
son, Mr. G. C. Wilson.

THERMODYNAMICS. I; 3 cr. A course in the theory and principles
underlying heat engines. This course is similar to course 1 except
the study of fuels is replaced by the thermodynamics of vapors. Pre-
requisites: Physics 51, 52, 58, or 54; Mathematics 54, 55. Required
of junior electrical and chemical engineering students. Mr. Nelson,
Mr. Rose, Mr. Trotter, Mr. Braatz.

THERMODYNAMICS. II; 3 cr. Continuation of S. and G. 3. This
course is similar to course 2 except fuels are studied in place of the
thermodynamics of vapors. Prerequisite: S. and G. 3. Mr. Nelson,
Mr. Rose, Mr. Trotter, Mr. Braatz.

THERMODYNAMICS FOR CIVIL ENGINEERS. II; 2 cr. A very abbrevi-
ated course in the thermodynamics of gases and vapors and their
application to the more important types of steam engines, gas engines,
and boilers. Prerequisites: Physics 51, 52; Mathematics 54, 55.
Required of junior civil engineers. Mr. Nelson.

Senior THEsIs. I, II; 1-5 cr. May be elected by seniors in Mechani-
cal Engineering.

STEAM AND GAS ENGINE CALCULATIONS. I; 2 cr. A course devoted
to the calculations used in practice for determining size and the more
important details of steam engines, boilers, condensers, cooling towers,
etc. Problems are assigned and discussed and solved in the drawing
room. Prerequisites: S. and G. 1 and 2, or 3 and 4. Required of
senior mechanical engineers. Mr. Larson.

STEAM TURBINE CALCULATIONS. II; 2 cr. This study covers theory
and elements of design of steam turbines, also practical problems re-
lating to turbine operation. Prerequisites: 8S. and G. 1 and 2, or 3
and 4. Mr. Larson.

HEATING AND VENTILATING. I, II; 8 cr. The principles and the
theory of modern systems of heating and ventilating buildings of
various types, accompanied by problems involving the design and
specifications for such systems. Prerequisites: S. and G. 1 and 2, 3
and 4, or 7. Mr. Larson.

INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINES. I; 2 cr. The theory and design of
gas, gasoline, and fuel oil engines; also such details as carburetion,
fuel injection, and ignition. Prerequisites: S. and G. 1 and 2, or 3
and 4, Mr. G. C. Wilson.
