摘要
This paper presents a concise computer courseware for solving three types of fundamental thermodynamic problems: determine gas status after specified processes; evaluate a pure substance's thermodynamic properties at given state; and analysis of basic thermodynamic cycles, including power cycle, refrigeration cycle, and heat pump cycle. Common programming language C# is selected to develop the courseware and interfaces. The application of the developed courseware in teaching thermodynamic courses can efficiently help students to improve their problem-solving skills and make them better understand basic thermodynamic laws. The presented teaching approach can be expansively applied in thermodynamics education. (C) 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
