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.

The course imparts knowledge on practical design methods for thermal energy systems such as heating and cooling circuits, solar thermal systems, large extensive pipe networks, and heat pump evaporators. Special emphasis is placed on the conditions for safe operation. The design and integration of storage tanks and heat pumps into thermal networks is also covered. Furthermore, building physical aspects and practical rules regarding pipe routing, building integration, and maintenance are discussed as well. You will find more information here:
Requisiti
Basic knowledge of thermodynamics, heat transfer and fluid dynamics.
Obiettivi di apprendimento
Practical design problems are best solved in a holistic approach. It is therefore advantageous to solve thermodynamic and hydraulic dimensioning problems in conjunction. This approach is expressed by the term “thermal hydraulics”. As you will see, thermal hydraulic methods constitute a powerful toolset for the design of energy efficient, cost effective as well as maintenance friendly thermal energy systems and their components.
Through numerous examples, you will learn how to derive analytical models and how to translate them into practically applicable computer codes, which form the basis of the toolsets. You will use this toolset to solve thermal hydraulic engineering problems.
Contenuti del modulo
A short introduction into thermodynamics, fluid mechanics as well as mass and heat transfer will be given, tailored to the needs of this course. The theory of two-phase flow is taught to the degree necessary to deal with ventability of pipe networks, stagnation of solar thermal plants, and refrigerant evaporators.
Free open-source computer programmes are provided for each topic. You can use them to solve the exercises, and in your future professional practice.
Metodologie di insegnamento e apprendimento
The content is presented by frontal teaching.
Numerous examples are motivated by use-cases and illustrated by story-telling.
Homework exercises are solved using the provided VBA codes running under Excel.
Bibliografia
The script is provided in the form of Powerpoint presentations, scientific articles and literature extracts.
