Content and learning outcomes
Course contents
Intended learning outcomes
After passing the course, the student should be able to:
- formulate, model and solve problems for technical systems and devices in fluid machinery at a basic level.
- formulate, model and solve problems for technical systems and devices in heat transfer at a basic level.
- present written solutions to problems in the course field that are stringent and understandable.
For higher grades, the student should furthermore be able to:
4. for grade C: fulfill requirements for grade E and apply calculations on more complex problems in all subareas of the course.
5. for grade A: fulfill requirements for grade C and analyse solutions and assess assumptions and the reasonableness and validity of results for problems in all subareas of the course .

Ethical approach
- All members of a group are responsible for the group's work.
- In any assessment, every student shall honestly disclose any help received and sources used.
- In an oral assessment, every student shall be able to present and answer questions about the entire assignment and solution.
