AAE 33800 - Thermal Sciences
Credit Hours: 3.00. A fundamental course covering a range of topics selected from the disciplines of engineering thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, heat transfer and combustion, with an emphasis on their application to propulsion. This is an entry level course to prepare students for advanced analysis of propulsion and energy systems. Upon completion of this course, students are expected to be able to apply fundamental principles to perform thermodynamic analysis for thermophysical problems involving fluid flow, heat transfer and combustion.
Learning Outcomes
1. Identify types of problems from thermo-fluid systems.
2. Perform heat conduction analysis for steady and unsteady problems.
3. Perform analysis for radiation heat transfer.
4. Develop deeper understanding of the laws of thermodynamics and their applications to various problems.
5. Apply fundamentals of fluid mechanics to various fluid flow problems.
6. Analyze convection heat transfer problems.
7. Conduct analysis of simple combustion systems such as adiabatic or chemical equilibrium.
8. Analyze simple thermo-fluid systems using fundamentals we learn from the class.
