Objective
You recognize the basic phenomena and the most important quantities, units, definitions and laws related to thermal expansion, heat absorption, heat transfer, gases and air humidity.
You recognize the basic functions, quantities and terms of thermodynamics. You are able to read diagrams and tables of substances. You are able to determine the mass and energy balance of the stationary process. You understand the basic types of heat and power plants and different steam and gas circulation processes.
You are able to apply the concepts to solve problems in the technical field.
You are able to study the phenomena and determine quantities on experimental basis.
Content
What are the basic phenomena and the most important quantities, units, definitions and laws related to thermal expansion, heat absorption, heat transfer, gases and air humidity?

Course material
Kurssimateriaali on jaossa kurssin Moodle-sivulla. Materiaali pohjautuu osittain kirjaan "Insinöörin (AMK) fysiikka, osa 1, Hautala ja Peltonen, 2016, 12. painos". Myös muut painokset käyvät.
Study forms and methods
Työviikkopohjainen oppimisväylä:
Kurssi sisältää lähiopetusta sekä harjoitustehtäviä. Osa harjoitustehtävistä voi olla palautettavia.
Timing of exams and assignments
Kurssin kahden osion mahdollisia kokeita voi uusia kaksi kertaa.
Student workload
Kurssi on viiden opintopisteen laajuinen joka vastaa 135 tunnin työskentelyä.
Evaluation scale
1-5
Assessment methods and criteria
Kurssin arvosana määrittyy kahden erillisen osan arvioinnista. Osien arviointiin voidaan käyttää koetuloksia, osaamista harjoitustehtävissä tai muita kriteerejä.
