Course Description

本課程將涵蓋一些古典熱力學之基本定律,包括狀態方程、功、內能、第一定律、第二定律、熱容量、潛熱、卡諾循環、Clausius-Clapeyron方程、絕熱率。課程核心主要著重在水和水的相變所造成的影響,包含大氣穩定度、浮力、可用位能、氣塊混合、大氣熱力圖,以及雲的形成。
 

Course Objective
本課程目標為提供一個古典熱力學、乾和飽和空氣熱力學的觀念架搆。這些包含熱力學、熱力穩定度和雲形成的基本觀念。希望學生能夠把這些學到的基礎進一步應用到其他主題上。 
Course Requirement
學生應該在課堂上表現一般的禮貌,如果有任何課程方面困難的學生應立即見我。本課程要求經常出席,無故缺席可能會降低最後成績的分數。
