General description | Many physical systems involve the subjects broadly referred to as thermal-fluid sciences, the subject of this course. The main objectives of the course are: • To cover the basic principles of energy transfer and fluid mechanics. • To present numerous and diverse real-world examples to give students a feel for how thermal-fluid sciences are applied in bio-technological practice. • To develop an intuitive understanding of thermal-fluid sciences by emphasizing the physics and physical arguments. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

To pass the subject, you need to achieve a total of 50 points out of 100 possible, combining the grades from written exams and laboratory work. There will be two written exams throughout the course, each carrying a weight of 43 points. To evaluate these exams, a minimum score of 20/43 points must be achieved in each. If this minimum score is not reached, the corresponding grade for the exam will be zero points. Students who did not reach the minimum score in the first exam can retake it on the date of the second exam. The remaining 14 points correspond to the evaluation of laboratory practices. Laboratory practices are part of the continuous assessment of the subject, and their completion is not considered mandatory. If the laboratory practices are not completed, the score for that part will be zero points. In the final grade for the first assessment period, the laboratory grade will only be added if the minimum scores in the exam grades are achieved. Assessment in the second assessment period: The exam in the second assessment period is a single global exam for the subject. If a student did not complete the laboratory practices in the first assessment period, they will be evaluated on that part through an exam on the content of the laboratory practices. General rules regarding plagiarism, copying, or fraud: To prevent plagiarism and ensure equal opportunities for all students, the possession and use of mobile and/or electronic devices, notes, books, folders, or other unauthorized materials during assessments will not be allowed. This is in accordance with the guidelines established by the University regarding plagiarism, copying, or fraud in exams or assessments. Simply possessing such devices during assessments will result in immediate removal from the exam, expulsion, and a failing grade. |
