    Why thermodynamics?

    Thermodynamics is crucial for engineering applications across diverse fields. In space industry, thermodynamics is used to design propulsion systems that drive spacecraft to destinations beyond Earth. For example, in the Mars 2020 mission, the Perseverance Rover used a radioisotope thermoelectric generator to convert the heat produced from the decay of plutonium-238 into electricity, powering the rover’s instruments and systems. In space exploration, thermodynamics plays a key role in developing cutting-edge technologies that enable us to reach beyond our planet and explore the unknown.

    Thermodynamics is a foundational discipline in modern physics. It provides a framework for understanding the behavior of matter and energy at a macroscopic level. From the laws of thermodynamics, we can derive principles that govern everything from engines and refrigeration systems to the structure of the universe. Understanding the principles of thermodynamics is essential for solving many of the engineering challenges facing us today.
