EML 3015 C - Thermal Fluids I

Fall 2002

  • NEWSFLASH (Dec. 15, 2002):
  • (Archive of previous NEWSFLASH messages can be found under ANNOUNCEMENTS)
    • This is the first of a two-part series of courses (Thermal Fluids I & II) designed to provide a background on the fundamental principles and engineering
    applications of thermodynamics, heat transfer and fluid mechanics.These three areas collectively make up the field of thermal sciences but are
    traditionally taught as separate course.However, in this course sequence, the three areas are presented in a more integrated manner, emphasizing the
    connectivity between these areas through the use of ‘real-world’ examples of thermal systems.Topics covered include, but are not limited to: Fundamentals
    of Thermodynamics, including the First and Second Laws; application of the laws of Thermodynamics to various systems; analysis of various Power and
    Refrigeration Cycles; modes of heat transfer: conduction, convection and radiation; Analysis of steady state and transient heat transfer; fluids statics; laws of
    conservation of mass & momentum (Newton’s second law) and their application to various systems; Bernoulli’s equation; losses in pipes and other internal
    and external flows.
