Description

Version: 3.0 start 01 February 2024
 

Short description

The Applied Heat Transfer module from the Fluid and Thermodynamics (FTH) series teaches the fundamentals of heat transfer. The overall aim is to master the various heat transfer mechanisms and the design of heat exchangers for technical applications.

Module coordinator

Bothien, Mirko (both)

Remarks

Type of lessons: 
Lessons include 2 group lessons per week throughout the semester. In addition, 1-3 calculation exercises of 4 lessons each and 3-4 practical exercises of 4 lessons each take place throughout the semester. Students are expected to actively participate in the exercises and the practical course in particular.
 
Self-study: 
Contents: Independent study of the heat transfer topics selected by the lecturer. This self-study material can also be the subject of the written exam.

Legal basis

The module description is part of the legal basis in addition to the general academic regulations. It is binding. During the first week of the semester a written and communicated supplement can specify the module description in more detail.
