Thermal Processing/ Heat Technology

Master courses

Environmental engineering and energy process engineering , safety and security

Objectives of modules

The students calculate the heating and cooling processes of solids such as metals ceramics and fuels. They know the mechanism of heat transfer by radiation. They know how to influence heat transfer by radiation shields and secondary radiation. You can apply the methods of intensive cooling with liquids. They calculate coupled heat and mass transport processes using equilibrium equations. They are able to interpret thermal processes of high temperature process engineering and energy technology .
