Ogni modulo equivale a 3 crediti ECTS. È possibile scegliere un totale di 10 moduli/30 ECTS nelle seguenti categorie:
- 12-15 crediti ECTS in moduli tecnico-scientifici (TSM)
I moduli TSM trasmettono competenze tecniche specifiche del profilo e si integrano ai moduli di approfondimento decentralizzati. - 9-12 crediti ECTS in basi teoriche ampliate (FTP)
I moduli FTP trattano principalmente basi teoriche come la matematica, la fisica, la teoria dell’informazione, la chimica ecc. I moduli ampliano la competenza scientifica dello studente e contribuiscono a creare un importante sinergia tra i concetti astratti e l’applicazione fondamentale per l’innovazione - 6-9 crediti ECTS in moduli di contesto (CM)
I moduli CM trasmettono competenze supplementari in settori quali gestione delle tecnologie, economia aziendale, comunicazione, gestione dei progetti, diritto dei brevetti, diritto contrattuale ecc.

Fluid Mechanics and Heat Transfer (TSM_FMechHeat)
At the beginning of the course, we will give the students an insight on the basics of fluid dynamics and heat transfer.
Subsequently, the course will focus on more complex thermal and fluid phenomena occuring in mechanical engineering applications.
Obiettivi di apprendimento
The objectives of the course are the following:
- To give students a solid knowledge of fluid mechanics and thermal phenomena in order to be able to develop a critical approach with respect to complex mechanical and energetic systems
- To train students at the development of fluid and energetic systems
- To enable students to understand, analyse and realise complex thermal and fluid systems
Contenuti del modulo
- Navier-Stokes and Bernoulli equations: Starting from mass, energy and momentum conservation laws, the basic fluid mechanics equations are presented
- Vaschy-Buckingham theorem: Different applications will be presented, with the aim of introducing fundamental adimensional numbers (Reynolds, Strouhal, Mach number, etc.) for basic phenomena in both gas and liquid phases (e.g. tip speed ratio for wind mills, pressure drops in pipes, hydraulic machines)
- Basic fluid phenomena
- Turbulent and laminar flows
- Wall flows (boundary layers and duct flows); head losses (generalization of Bernoulli theorem)
- Flow-induced forces (lift, drag and moments) for different geometries (wing profiles and 3D wings; blunt bodies)
- Laminar or turbulent separation
- Basic thermal phenomena
- Conduction, convection and radiation
- Heat exchange (Nusselt, Reynolds and Prandtl correlations)
- Heat exchangers (performance evaluations, geometries)
- Basics of fluid and thermal systems simulations (e.g. heat exchangers and simple heating networks)
- Advanced phenomenological analysis
- Unsteady phenomena
- Compressible flows
