transfer and their applications (Knowledge).
2. As a result of validation analyses using Finite Element Method, you will learn how to model and solve different heat transfer problems computationally (Skill)
3. You will investigate time-dependent
(transient) conduction processes experimentally (Skill)
4. You will consider the thermal properties of materials and heat transfer phenomenon as basis for selecting materials in design processes (Attitude)
