Course content
Basic equations and relations used for solving of the heat and mass transfer phenomena.

Learning activities and teaching methods
Monological explanation (lecture, presentation,briefing), Dialogue metods(conversation,discussion,brainstorming), Self-study (text study, reading, problematic tasks, practical tasks, experiments, research, written assignments), Demonstration
  • Class attendance - 56 hours per semester
Learning outcomes
The aim of the course is to introduce students to the basic mechanisms of heat and mass transfer. Students can apply the acquired knowledge, for example, in the design of heat exchangers and thermal machines.
Students acquire theoretical and partially practical technical skills to solve various cases connected to heat and mass transfer.
Prerequisites
Thermodynamics, Fluid Mechanics

Assessment methods and criteria
Combined examination

Exam "započet" is obtained by an active participation on the exercise and finished technical reports. Exam - written or oral.
