Advanced Energy Engineering
Courses
Learning Outcome
After the successful participation in the course Applied Heat Transfer the students are able to:
- evaluate the radiative exchange in a thermal system; understand the effect of radiative properties, geometry and arrangement of surfaces on the involved radiative fluxes; size and choose different types of heat exchange and determinethe thermal loads of the premises
Content
- Heat radiation: introduction to thermal radiation; blackbody radiation; radiative properties of real surfaces; radiative exchange between surfaces; radiationthrough a semi-transparent medium.
- Heat exchangers: classification of heat exchangers; thermal design methods of heat exchangers; tubular heat exchangers: double-pipe, shell and tube exchangers; plate heat exchangers; heat exchangers with finned surfaces; heat exchangers with phase change (condenser boiler and evaporator); design andsimulation of heat exchangers using the calculation codes (HTFS,.. etc.).
- Thermal building: concept of thermal comfort; steady-state calculation of the building load; load in winter mode (losses surface and thermal bridges, internal intakes losses by infiltration and air change, solar contributions); load in summer mode (losses surface and thermal bridges, internal intakes losses by infiltrationand air change, solar contributions); transient modelling
