24-736 Special Topics Units: 12.0 Department: Mechanical Engineering Related URLs: http://www.me.cmu.edu Intermittent- Spring: 12 units Special Topics: Two-Phase Flow and Heat Transfer Fundamentals of liquid-gas flow and heat transfer will be studied for applications in petrochenmical processes, steam generators, heat exchangers, rocket nozzle cooling, nuclear reactor and other applications. The dynanmics and heat transfer of liquid sprays will also be discussed for spray systems including the coating, cooling and combustion applications. Reviews of various current research topics will also be addressed. Lectures will be provided but students shall work on selcted assignments on specific subjects from their particular areas of interest. Each student will eventually write up and present a subject as a rewview. The goal is to make students ready for research in their area of interest. This course assumes a graduate level of knowledge in fluid mechanics (comparable to 24-711) and a graduate level of knowledge in heat tranfer (comparable to 24-730). 4 hrs lec. Prerequisite: None
