Sathyabama University: (Established Under Section 3 of UGC Act, 1956)

This document appears to be a student's exam paper containing questions related to engineering thermodynamics. It includes questions about: 1) The Zeroth law of thermodynamics, specific heat, and causes of irreversibility. 2) Critical state, pressure, and temperature. Pure substances and examples. Cyclic and non-cyclic heat engines with examples. Topping and bottoming cycles and inversion temperature. 3) Stoichiometric air. The paper then provides multiple choice and numerical answer questions related to thermodynamics concepts like nozzles, compressors, heat engines, refrigerators, phase changes of water, steam tables, diesel cycles, and combustion reactions.
