OVERVIEW

The course deals with the topic of heat exchange and the equipment where it is carried out

AIMS AND CONTENT

LEARNING OUTCOMES

The purpose of the course is that the participants acquire an understanding of the mechanisms that govern the operation of the equipment in question, the ability to develop their sizing and configure their succession within a complete plant.

AIMS AND LEARNING OUTCOMES

Strengthen  capacity developments of student with reference a full understanding of the technical implications about heat transfer equipments 

TEACHING METHODS

The module includes classroom lectures. the teaching activity is integrated with numerical exercises applied to the concepts developed in class that the student must perform independently under the guidance of the teacher.

During the lectures, the students are stimulated and involved in individual or collective discussions on the various topics addressed in the teaching to foster communication skills and interact more profitably with the teacher and assess the learning status. 

Therefore, already during the course the students are involved both individually and in groups for the examination of the problems in order to verify the acquisition of the various topics addressed, through a direct comparison with colleagues and the teacher .
