Course content
The course intends to give an introduction to the laws for heat and mass transport. Following an introduction to the principles of heat transfer, are these topics addressed: Stationary and non-stationary conduction, basic conditions and engineering contexts of convective heat transfer, phase change heat transfer (boiling/condensation), radiation and heat exchangers. Both analytical and numerical (computer-based) calculation methods are presented.
Learning outcome
Knowledge:
The course will give the student knowledge of
- basic heat transfer mechanisms (conduction, convection, radiation).
- heat transport by conduction in solids for stationary and transient conditions.
- heat transport by convection in duct flow and on external surfaces.
- heat transfer by radiation.
- convective mass transport.
- friction and pressure loss in boundary layer flow in ducts and on
external surfaces.
- heat transfer by phase change (boiling/condensation).
- boundary layer flow, laminar and turbulent flow.
- heat exchangers: behavior and the most common designs.
Skills:
The course will enable the student to
- calculate heat transfer by conduction, convection, and radiation for
practical situations.
- analyze and calculate heat transport in composite systems with
several heat transfer mechanisms involved.
- calculate mass transport using a heat transfer analogy.
- perform thermal-hydraulic calculations for heat exchangers.
General competence:
The course will provide the student with
- basic competence included in other topics focusing on thermal
energy systems and processes.
- skills to analyze and calculate heat transfer in
complex problems and heat engineering equipment
Learning methods and activities
Lectures, calculation exercises, computer exercises, and laboratory exercises. A minimum of 75 % of the calculation/computer exercises, as well as at least 1 of the laboratory exercises, has to be approved before the student can take the exam. It can be arranged approximately 2 mid-term tests, which will each be credited as 2 approved exercises.
Compulsory laboratory work and exercises.
Compulsory assignments
- Approved exercises
Further on evaluation
Examination arrangement: Written exam with a duration of 4 hours which constitutes 100 % of the assessment basis in the course.
