MECH-623/620 Applied Energy Systems Analysis - A. Pourmovahed

 

This course expands the concepts introduced in undergraduate thermodynamics, fluid mechanics and heat transfer and continues with the coverage of mixtures, psychrometry, chemical reactions, internal and external flows and radiation in enclosures with and without participating media. These concepts are then applied in detail to renewable energy systems and systems such as jet engines, fuel cell air management systems, stationary and mobile fuel cell power plants, wind turbines, and solar heating and cooling systems. A team project is a major component of this course.
