Class schedule | HW assignments (Including preparation and review of the class.) | Amount of Time Required | |
---|---|---|---|
1. | Introduction: explanation of how to proceed the lecture, energy efficiency, and exergy efficiency [Lecture / 2 classes] <Contents> (1) Outline of the lecture and explanation of the purpose of the class (2) Learn about energy efficiency and exergy efficiency in thermodynamics and heat transfer engineering. In other words, we will learn about temperature difference, energy loss, and exergy loss, which are the driving forces of energy conversion and thermal energy transfer. (3) Introduction of topics such as various energy devices, reactive thermo-fluid phenomena, and numerical simulations |
