Unfortunately, no reservations were found for the realization Heat and Flow Engineering TE00CI67-3002. It's possible that the reservations have not yet been published or that the realization is intended to be completed independently.

Evaluation scale

0-5

Content scheduling

Laskuharjoituksia tehdään tasaisesti lähes koko kevään ajan. Kurssilla pidetään kaksi koetta, joista ensimmäinen puolivälissä ja toinen lopussa.

Objective

The purpose of the course

You will learn the basics of thermodynamics and fluid mechanics which are required to understand different industrial and heat transfer phenomena. In addition, you will learn logical problem solving.

Competences

PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS OF THE TECHNOLOGY

You have the ability to identify, formulate and solve time-independent heat transfer and flow problems. You know how to use well-established analytical and computational methods suitable for the situation.

KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING

Your knowledge and understanding of heat transfer phenomena is at the level necessary to achieve the other learning objectives of the energy and environmental engineering education program.

Learning outcome

After completing this course you are able to identify the basic principles of the heat transfer and fluid mechanics. You are also able to solve simple heat transfer and fluid mechanics problems.

Content

Heat equation and applications, steady heat conduction, convection, thermal radiation, laminar flow and turbulent flow.

Materials

Kurssilla käytetään opettajan tekemiä videoita sekä pdf-muotoista materiaaleja.

Kurssi pohjautuu seuraavaan kirjaan:

1.) Cengel, Yunus A.; Ghajar, Afshin J. Heat and Mass Transfer, Fundamentals & Applications, Fifth Edition in SI Units.

Mikä tahansa painos kelpaa tukimateriaaliksi.

Teaching methods

Kurssi toteutetaan käänteisen luokkahuoneen menetelmällä. Opiskelijat tutustuvat materiaaliin etukäteen ja laskevat harjoitustehtäviä. Tehtäviin saa apua kevään aikana järjestettävillä ohjaustunneilla.

Exam schedules

Kurssin tenttiaikataulut ilmoitetaan ensimmäisellä luennolla.

Student workload

10 h kontaktiopetusta
6 h kokeita
119 h itsenäistä opiskelua
