About this Unit
The unit provides an understanding of thermo-fluid principles and their engineering applications related to thermal processes and energy conversion used in power plants, heat pumps, wind turbines, and airplanes. Students analytical skills are developed through the evaluation of laminar, turbulent and compressible fluid flows, as well as combustion processes and products. Students are introduced to special thermal and fluid engineering topics, including alternative energy options for Indigenous Australians. In addition to examining the theoretical principles, students evaluate thermodynamic systems and apply basic computational techniques to solve thermodynamics and fluid flow problems in practical laboratory sessions.
