Teaching Fluid Mechanics and Thermodynamics Simultaneously through Pipeline Flow Experiments

open access: yesFluids, 2019
Entropy and entropy generation are abstract and illusive concepts for undergraduate students. In general, students find it difficult to visualize entropy generation in real (irreversible) processes, especially at a mechanistic level.
