AimsToggle Navigation

Knowledge of heat transmission is acquired as the basic principles and applied to the resolution of engineering problems.



The transversal competence G012 is worked on. Thus, the strategies of scientific methodology are applied: the problematic situation is analysed qualitatively and quantitatively. Hypotheses and solutions that will be used in the models of Renewable Energy engineering are proposed.



KNOWLEDGE OR CONTENTS



- RCO1: The graduate will be able to identify concepts and techniques from basic and specific subjects, enabling the learning of new methods, theories and modern engineering tools, providing sufficient versatility to be able to adapt to new situations in the exercise of his/her profession.



- RCO7: The graduate will identify the laws of applied thermodynamics and heat transfer, as well as the basic principles of fluid mechanics, which are applicable in the field of engineering.



COMPETENCIES



- RC4: The graduate will be able to apply the strategies of scientific methodology: analyse the problematic situation qualitatively and quantitatively, propose hypotheses and solutions using the models of renewable energy engineering.



SKILLS OR ABILITIES



- HE1: The graduate will be able to solve problems with initiative, decision-making, creativity and critical reasoning.



- HE5: The graduate will be able to work effectively in a constructive team, integrating skills and knowledge to make decisions.



- HE6: The graduate will be able to acquire new knowledge and skills in order to carry out continuous training, as well as to undertake further studies, with a high degree of autonomy.

MethodologyToggle Navigation

M (Lecture): a 2 h duration PowerPoint will be exposed every week, one presentation for each chapter. The students must take notes.



GA (Problems): 1 h of problems will be done, every week, on the board for each chapter. The students must take notes and will be asked randomly about how they would do some parts of the problems.



GO (Computer Problems): 7 computer classes will be done (1.5 h each one) using the ESS software to solve different problems. During the first hour of each class the teacher will lead some exercises and in the last half hour the student will have to solve a problem by his own, which will be evaluated. Schedule:



COMPUTER CLASS 1 (week 5): fundamentals of EES software and problems for chapters 3 and 4. This one will not be evaluated.



COMPUTER CLASS 2 (week 6): problems for chapter 5.

COMPUTER CLASS 3 (week 7): problems for chapter 5.

COMPUTER CLASS 4 (week 8): problems for chapter 5.

COMPUTER CLASS 5 (week 9): problems for chapters 6, 7 and 8.

COMPUTER CLASS 6 (week 12): problems for chapters 9, 10 and 11.

COMPUTER CLASS 7 (week 15): problems for chapters 12 and 13.



GL (Laboratory practices): the students must do two laboratory practices, 2.5 h each one: convection and heat exchangers. The student will do a report for each of the laboratory practices and those reports will be evaluated.



NOTE: The semester is 15 weeks long but there are just 14 chapters because probably one week will be lost because of some free days.

Assessment systemsToggle Navigation

1 - WRITTEN EXAM*:



1st exercise: heat transfer

2nd exercise: heat transfer

3rd exercise: heat transfer



Written exam grade = [(1st exercise)x(2nd exercise)x(3rd exercise)]^1/3 .



Also, three written test, using Socrative tool will be done during the course. In each test, all the class must participate and 80% of the answers will be correct in order to get 5% of the final grade, otherwise will get nothing.



2 - COMPUTER PROBLEMS**: 7 computer problem classes (1.5 h duration each one) will be done using the EES software. In the last three computer classes problems on the

theory exposed on lectures will be solved. In those 3 computer classes the pattern will be the same, in the first hour the teacher will lead the exercises and in the last half hour the student will be evaluated. The exam type will be passed or failed. The student will be given one problem, similar to those made during the first hour, and if the student gets the correct solution will get a 5% of the final grade, otherwise will get nothing. Since there are 3 evaluated computer classes the total weight of them is a 15% of the final grade.



3 - REPORTS FROM LABORATORY PRACTICES**: Two written test from laboratory practices will be done: convection and heat transfer. The value of each of the reports will be the 7.5% of the final grade.



------------------------------------------

FINAL GRADE:

WRITTEN EXAM (55%) + COMPUTER PROBLEMS (15%) + REPORTS FROM LABORATORY PRACTICES (15%) + WRITTEN TEST WITH SOCRATIVE (15%)

* To pass the subject in the written exam a minimum of 35% must be obtained. The proceedings will show the written exam grade in case the minimum is not obtained.

** If, because of holiday days, any computer class or any laboratory practice is not carried out, their total percentage on the final grade will be the same. This means that the value of the ones carried out will be adjusted in order to maintain the total percentage.



Note: Students than for cause (Art.43 management regulations for the teachings of degree. UPV/EHU) may not participate in joint evaluation system will have access to a final exam which will be also evaluated the practical part. For this purpose, it shall his desire, as written and justified to the teacher in charge of the subject, within a period that, at a minimum, will be one month before the date set for the evaluation of the subject. In this case, the / the student to be evaluated / a with a single final exam, which will include a practical part, and that shall cover 100% of the note.Article 39 of the same regulation states that the / the student at that desired, may submit his resignation to the call for evaluation, by means of a letter sent to the professor who taught the course, within a period that, at a minimum, will be one month prior to the date of completion of the teaching period of the course.In the event that the / the student that is submitted to the test written in any of the calls, will mean the renunciation of such call for evaluation and will consist as not submitted.
