Syllabus:

This course is an introduction to Heat transfer and the further study of Thermodynamics. The Heat transfer part of the course covers the mechanisms and basic calculations of 3 heat transfer modes: conduction, convection and radiation, and Heat exchanger design and performance estimation calculations. The Thermodynamics part of the course mainly introduce the applications of thermodynamic principles in variouse cycles, including Vapour power cycles; Gas power cycles and refrigeration cycles; This part also covers some advanced topics in thermodynamics, eg. Exergy analysis, non-reacting mixtures and psychrometry, and reacting processes and combustion. At the end of the course students are expected to have the knowledge to be able to assist design, assess and compare different heat transfer and thermodynamic systems, factoring in economic impacts.
