course aims in Estonian
Õppeaine eesmärk on:
- anda üliõpilastele teoreetilised ja rakenduslikud teadmised soojuslevi põhiprotsessidest (konduktsiooni, konvektsiooni ja radiatsiooni) ning arendada oskust rakendada neid inseneriarvutustes;
- rakendada teoreetilisi teadmisi soojuslevi protsesside kohta eksperimentaalsetes uuringutes;
- arendada oskust iseseisvalt informatsiooni koguda, seda loovalt tõlgendada ning kasutatud allikatele korrektselt viidata;
- arendada eksperimentaalsete ja arvutuslike tulemuste interpreteerimise ning aruannete koostamise ja erialase eneseväljenduse oskust;
- toetada üliõpilaste kujunemist vastutustundlikeks insenerideks, kes suudavad töötada nii iseseisvalt kui ka meeskonnas ning arvestavad oma tegevuse tehniliste, ühiskondlike ja eetiliste mõjudega.
course aims in English
The aim of this course is to:
- provide students with theoretical and applied knowledge of heat transfer processes (conduction, convection, and radiation), as well as the ability to apply this knowledge to engineering calculations;
- develop the ability to apply theoretical knowledge of heat transfer processes in experimental studies;
- develop the ability to independently collect, critically evaluate, and properly reference information sources;
- develop the ability to interpret experimental and computational results, prepare technical reports, and communicate professionally;
- support the development of students into responsible engineers who are able to work both independently and in teams and consider the technical, social, and ethical impacts of their activities.
learning outcomes in the course in Est.
Õppeaine läbinud üliõpilane:
- rakendab soojuslevi seaduspärasusi ja võrrandeid inseneriarvutustes ning eelhinnangute koostamisel, põhjendades valitud lahendusi ja hinnates nende mõju energiakasutusele;
- teostab soojuslevi protsesside laboratoorseid töid ja dokumenteerib nende tulemused, järgides teaduseetika, tööohutuse ja vastutustundliku andmekäitluse põhimõtteid;
- kasutab asjakohaseid kirjandusallikaid ja andmebaase soojus-füüsikaliste suuruste leidmiseks, hinnates kriitiliselt allikate usaldusväärsust ja neile korrektselt viidates;
- kaitseb laboratoorsete tööde aruandeid tuginedes tehtud laboratoorsetele mõõtmistele ja arvutustele ning nende tööde tulemuste analüüsile ja üldistustele ning järgides akadeemilise aususe ja erialase vastutuse põhimõtteid;
- tegutseb vastutustundlikult nii iseseisvalt kui ka meeskonnatöös, arvestades erinevate osapoolte rollide, ühiskondlike mõjude ja professionaalse insenerieetika põhimõtetega.
learning outcomes in the course in Eng.
After completing this course, the student:
- applies the laws and equations of heat transfer to engineering calculations and in preparing preliminary estimates, justifying the chosen solutions and assessing their impact on energy use;
- performs laboratory work on heat transfer processes and documents the results, adhering to the principles of scientific ethics, occupational safety, and responsible data management;
- uses relevant literature sources and databases to find thermal-physical quantities, critically assessing the reliability of sources and correctly citing them;
- defends laboratory work reports based on laboratory measurements and calculations performed, as well as analysis and generalizations of the results of this work, and following the principles of academic honesty and professional responsibility;
- acts responsibly, both independently and as part of a team, taking into account the roles of various parties, social influences, and the principles of professional engineering ethics.
