Fundamentals

This page is your ultimate guide to the core thermodynamic fundamentals that are crucial no matter where you land in the plant world. We’re talking about the basics of thermodynamics and fluid dynamics—stuff you need to get down pat before diving into the more specialized sections of our site.

Here’s the scoop:

Fluid Dynamics Essentials: We’ll cover the nitty-gritty of fluid dynamics as it applies directly to our industry. Knowing this stuff will not only make you a better operator but also something you’ll appreciate even if you ever move on from this field.

Thermodynamic Basics: We’ll break down the essential concepts of thermodynamics, tailored specifically for us plant operators. Think of this as your foundation for understanding how heat, energy, and work play out in the real world.
