Courses

Thermodynamics and energetics I

The course introduces the basic concepts of thermodynamics and heat transfer, and thermodynamic properties of matter and their calculation. The students will master the concepts of heat, mass, and momentum conservation, and apply these concepts to thermodynamic cylces and energy conversion systems.

Liquid-gas interfacial heat and mass transfer

This course covers the fundamental and practical analysis of liquid-gas interfacial heat and mass transfer in various contexts including power generation, water purification, and cooling. Students will learn about the multiscale physics involved in evaporation, boiling, and condensation.
