Aims

 Conveyance of theoretical and methodological basic notions related to tranfer phenomena and unit operations;

 Students customisation to the specific terminology used in mass and heat transfer phenomena and unit operations;

 Acquisition of basic notions used for understanding of specific aspects approached in future courses as well as in the future professional life.

 Presenting general calculation methods of processes related to impulse, mass and heat transfer in pipe flows and in plane flows;

 Presenting some thermodynamic systems used in environmental engineering;

Course contents

 Introduction, goals and objectives of this course;  Transfer phenomena and unit operations – their analysis and application;  Momentum transfer;  Energy transfer;  Mass transfer;  Operations of momentum transfer;  Operations of energy transfer;  Operations of mass transfer;  Similitude theory and dimensional analysis;  Examples;  Conclusions and applications in treating specific environmental pollution issues and environmental engineering matters.

Learning outcomes

 explaining basic natural or anthropic mechanisms, processes and effects which are determing and influencing the environmental pollution;  handling and solutioning specific environmental problems for assuring a sustainable development;  characterising the state of environmental factors by analysing the characteristic physical, chemical and biotical parameters.

Assessment
