Description
Introduction to heat transfer
- Objectives: To be able to qualify and quantify the energy quantities and their reciprocal conversions involved in machines and processes, concept of energy balance. Establish links between the physics of the phenomena and their implementation in these machines and processes. Study the fundamental laws of heat transfer and their applications in mechatronic products in order to optimise their operation and reliability.
Learning Outcomes AAv (AAv)
AAv1 [heures: 12.5, B3, B4, C2] : At the end of the semester, S6O students will be able to calculate in detail the quantities of heat exchanged between systems or due to potential phase transitions and to deduce the evolution of their temperature as a function of time.
AAv2 [heures: 12.5, B3, B4,C2] : At the end of the semester, S6O students will be able to calculate in detail the steady-state temperature distribution in a solid subject to conduction and external heat sources or exchanges.
