AIMS AND CONTENT

LEARNING OUTCOMES

The course has the following specific objectives: to give some fundamentals on heat transfer applied to energy transformation and production; to provide some general bases in the energetic field, in such a way the student can make correct options on the production and rational use of energy; to give the first elements on solar and nuclear energy

AIMS AND LEARNING OUTCOMES

Based on the previously stated objective, the student at the end of the module will be able to operate critically on heat transfer problems both when there is only one heat transmission mechanism and in complex systems when heat is transmitted simultaneously with several combined mechanisms .

These objectives will be achieved with theoretical lessons combined with numerical applications carried out during the exercises and the latter representing engineering scenarios present in the activity of the mechanical engineer.

From the hierarchical point of view learning starting from a scale of basic complexity (remembering, understanding) and it will move towards higher complexities such as solving, judging and proposing engineering solutions.

TEACHING METHODS

The course consists in theoretical lectures and numerical practices.

SYLLABUS/CONTENT

Fundamentals of heat transfer by conduction, convection and radiation with several application to power plant components with particular reference to heat exchangers. Primary and secondary energy sources. A world-wide and national survey on energy production and consumption. The use of solar energy at high, medium and low temperature. Fission and fusion nuclear energy. Problem of environmental pollution by fossil and nuclear fuel. Principles of psychrometrics. Psychrometric charts (Mollier - Carrier). Psychometric transformations. Measure relative humidity. The place conditioning in summer and winter.
