MECH 620 - Engineering Thermal Design

Institution:

Wentworth Institute of Technology

Subject:

Description:

Fundamentals of thermodynamics are used to model power generation, refrigeration, and cogeneration systems. Numerical methods in heat transfer and fluid mechanics are studied. The heat transfer theories are integrated with thermodynamics and fluid mechanics in the design of thermal systems, including heat exchangers. The course includes laboratory experiences and an open-ended design project. Students are expected to use computational methods throughout the course. Prerequisites: MECH505 Engineering Thermodynamics; MECH565 Engineering Fluids; MECH595 Engineering Heat Transfer. Day Course.
