Summary
Students get acquainted with basic principles of two disciplines hydromechanics and thermodynamics.
Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit
Students get acquainted with details of hydromechanics, gas thermodynamics, and they acquire some knowledge concerning issues of heat transfer. This knowledge is a prerequisite for deeper understanding of problems regarding efficient generation, transformation, and distribution of energy.
