Course content
In this class, we discuss how to solve the problem regarding energy conversion processes.
Purpose of class
Learning the methods to utilize basic knowledge such as mechanics, thermodynamics, fluid mechanics etc. for problem solving regarding various energy conversion processes.
Goals and objectives
  1. Students will be able to apply various physical laws to the characterization and design of energy conversion processes
  2. From the viewpoint of energy conservation, students will be able to propose control methods suitable for individual energy conversion processes
  3. Students will be able to understand the characteristics of the energy conversion process in the unified way from the standpoint of analogies that are found in systems with different forms.
