- Content that is appropriate for Thermodynamics, Engineering Thermodynamics, Principles of Thermodynamics, Fundamentals of Thermodynamics, and Thermodynamics I & II courses
The student who successfully completes the course will have the ability to understand the working principles of thermal engines and heat systems and to solve design and performance problems related to them. He will be able to demonstrate a solid and operational knowledge of principles of thermodynamics in the form of balance equetions, including availability analysis, and of the basic mechanisms of heat transfer (conduction, radiation, convection).
L'esame consiste nello svolgimento scritto di uno o pi problemi assegnati sul momento, seguito da un orale in cui vengono discussi lo scritto e le esercitazioni assegnate durante l'anno.
Durante lo scritto possibile consultare appunti, libri e dispense, e usare una calcolatrice, ma non consentito l'uso del personal computer.
The student will be assessed on his/her demonstrated ability to discuss the main course contents using the appropriate terminology.The student must demonstrate the ability to solve, with critical awareness, design and operation problems of thermal systems analogous to the ones introduced in classes.
Lo studente dovr partecipare attivamente alle lezioni. Lo studente dovr responsabilmente concludere le esercitazioni assegnate durante il corso. Egli dovr essere capace di analizzare i problemi in autonomia e di proporre soluzioni.
Lo studente sar valutato sulla sua capacit di partecipare attivamente alle lezioni (chiedendo dettagli, individuando eventuali errori nei materiali didattici, commentando le soluzioni proposte dal docente).
Ciclo Rankine-Hirn: ciclo a vapor saturo e surriscaldato, spillamenti (cenno) e risurriscaldamenti. Ciclo Joule-Brayton: ciclo semplice, ciclo rigenerato, compressioni multiple, effetto delle irreversibilit.
Basic concepts and definitions in Thermodynamics. Thermodynamic properties of pure substances, equations of state. Generalized balance equations of mass, energy and entropy in lumped parameter formulation. Steady state open system (control volume) analysis. Working principles of simple machines and availability (exergy) analysis. Steady flow of incompressible fluid in ducts (generalized Bernoulli equation). Power and refrigeration systems of industrial interests. Basic mechanisms in heat transfer.
Le dispense del corso coprono integralmente programma svolto. Le dispense sono disponibili su carta, CD-ROM o scaricabili direttamente dalla rete (homepage del docente). Esse includono anche una raccolta di esercizi, molti dei quali risolti.
