Prerequisite or corequisite units are presented within each program
Learning unit contents
Study of the energy and mass budget of naturel systems thanks to the study of
- Solar radiation laws,
- Thermal Infra-red radiation laws / Radiative budget,
- Conduction laws / Steady state and harmonic conductive exchanges,
- Convection laws / Sensible heat convective exchanges,
- Psychrometry / Phase change/ Convective latent heat exchanges
Learning outcomes of the learning unit
- Identify a naturel system and its boundaries,
- Identify and quantify energy and mass fluxes exchanged by this system,
- Establish the energy and mass budget of this system end identify the driving variables and parameters of the budget,
- Predict temperature trends of this system
Prerequisite knowledge and skills
- Thermodynamics course (Bloc 1) - Fluids mechanics and Photometry (Bloc 2)
