Pune University Mechanical Engineering 3rd Sem-Applied Thermodynamics Papers are aimed to test the student’s knowledge of the basic and fundamental concepts of the subject. Topics from which questions are frequent include Clausius and Kelvin-Planck’s laws and their correct statement, numericals based on reversible heat pumps, determination of the COP of machines, conceptual questions on entropy which may also include numericals, sums based on Clausius inequality, the difference and definition of available and unavailable energy, the principle reasons for irreversibility, Helmholtz and Gibbs function, calculation of change in available energy when other data is given, numericals based on the raising or lowering of temperature and so on. Pune University Mechanical Engineering 3rd Sem-Applied Thermodynamics Papers are conceptual in nature consisting mainly of theories which need to be applied practically in the form of sums. Hence the student must be prepared accordingly. It can be quite high scoring if approached in the right manner.
