| TMMV52 | Computational Heat Transfer, 6 ECTS-points /Beräkningsmetoder i värmeöverföring/ Advancement level: D | |
| Aim: This course aims at giving the students knowledge and proficiency in computational methods applied to heat transfer and modelling of practical heat-transfer problems. Special attention is paid to the finite difference method for one- and two-dimensional problems. In addition, the students are given knowledge of other numerical methods for heat-transfer problems and of advanced discretization techniques.Prerequisites: Numerical Methods, Algebra, Analysis and Energy Technology basic course.Supplementary courses: Computational Methods in Fluid Dynamics (CFD), TMMV53Course organization: Teaching is in the form of seminars of varying scope. The course includes a large amount of computer work.Course content: Basic relations for heat transport in fluids and solids. Heat transport across material boundaries. Modelling techniques. Numerical computational methods in heat transfer, especially. The finite difference method. Discretization techniques.
