Engineering thermodynamics and fluid mechanics sample important Multiple Choice Questions(MCQs)

We all know that for a good score in exam we must have a good concept of the subject topics. Now a days short questions are common to any type of exam from school exam to competitive exam everywhere is full of MCQs.WBUT sample. ^st law of thermodynamics, 2^nd law of thermodynamics, air standard cycles for IC engines, Rankine cycle of steam, properties and classification of fluids, fluid statics and measurement of fluid pressure, fluid kinematics, dynamics of ideal fluids. Hope this tutorial will be useful to you people.

Here in this post I have picked up some important some important MCQs from engineering thermodynamics and fluid mechanics which will cover topics such as basic concept of thermodynamics, heat and work, ideal equation of state, process, real gas, property of pure substances, 1
