Tutorial (TOC) > Daemons

The state daemons are the building blocks of all other daemons and must be mastered first. You will find hands-on examples as well as background information on each daemon in this tutorial. For more examples with a particular daemon, visit the chapters mentioned in parenthesis in the Example module.
Basic Daemons	Unit Converter, DeskCal, Traditional tables and charts are covered in this tutorial.	Gas Turbine Daemons	Brayton cycle and jet engines. (Ch. 8). (prereq: open steady daemons).
State Daemons	Evaluation of properties and states using different material models. (Ch. 3, 11).	Steam Turbine Daemons	Rankine cycle. (Ch. 9). (prereq: open steady daemons).
Open Steady Daemons	Generic open steady systems such as pumps, turbines, etc. (Ch. 4, 6). (prereq: flow state daemons).	Refrigeration Daemons	Vapor compression and gas refrigeration cycles. (Ch. 10). (prereq: open steady daemons).
Closed Steady Daemons	Overall heat engine, refrigerator, or heat pump cycles can be treated as steady closed systems. (Ch. 2).	Psychrometry Daemon	Psychrometry and air conditioning. (Ch. 12). (prereq: open steady daemons).
Closed Process Daemons	Closed systems undergoing a process as in the compression of a gas in a piston-cylinder device. (Ch. 5, 6). (prereq: system state daemons).	Combustion Daemons	Combustion in open steady systems and closed processes. (Ch. 13). (prereq: open steady and closed process daemons).
Open Process Daemons	Open systems undergoing a process as in charging. (Ch. 5). (prereq: system and flow state daemons).	Equilibrium Daemons	Chemical equilibrium. (Ch. 14). (prereq: combustion daemons).
Exergy Daemons	Exergy (Availability) analysis of open-steady devices and closed processes (Ch. 6).	Closed Steady Daemons	High speed flow of gases. (Ch. 15). (prereq: open steady daemons).
Closed Cycle Daemons	Otto, Diesel, and other cycles used by reciprocating engines. (Ch. 7) (prereq: closed process daemons).	TEST Codes	Reproducing a solution using TEST codes.
