Course Objective |
This course aims to evaluate the behavior of thermal systems under various design and operating conditions using MATLAB and Engineering Equation Solver (EES) software. In the first part of the course, heat transfer analyses will be conducted for 1-dimensional and 2-dimensional problems using the energy balance approach under steady-state and transient conditions. In the second part of the course, thermodynamic and heat transfer models will be developed in EES software by considering stand-alone thermal equipment such as turbines, compressors, heat exchangers, pumps, and solar heaters. In the EES software, thermal systems such as power and cooling cycles will also be developed by combining individual systems, and the systems will be investigated parametrically from energy and exergy perspectives. |

Planned Learning Activities and Teaching Methods |
In online live lessons, in addition to the theoretical lectures on paper and presentations, the lecturer will write the computer codes step by step in the lesson. The steps of reduction of physical problems will be discussed interactively with students, and using the basic knowledge of students, the stages of solving engineering problems in the computer environment will be provided in detail. The student must be ready for the lessons. Sample problems related to the analysis and modeling of thermal systems will be solved in lessons. Students should be present their individual projects, submit the final report, and provide in-depth discussions on the finding. The student is required to work for the lesson in extra-curricular hours. |
