Content and learning outcomes

Course contents

  • Hydromechanics - hydrostatics, hydrodynamics
  • Turbomachinery – hydraulic and thermal turbomachines
  • One-dimensional heat conduction (conduction, convection)
  • Conjugate heat transfer (conduction and convection)
  • Heat exchangers - types, performance analysis, dimensioning methods

Intended learning outcomes

After completing the course, students should be able to:

1. Formulate, model, and solve problems for fluid flow systems and devices at a basic level.

2. Formulate, model, and solve problems for heat transfer in technical systems and devices at a basic level.

3. Present written solutions to problems within the course area that are rigorous and comprehensible.

For higher grades, the student must also be able to:

4. For grade C: requirements for E and the ability to perform calculations for more complex problems in all areas of the course.

5. For grade A: requirements for C and the ability to analyze solutions and assess both the assumptions and the reasonableness and validity of results for problems in all areas of the course.
