Synopsis:

This course will concentrate on basic principles of transport of heat and mass (conduction, convection, radiation, heat pumps; transport of moist in building materials) with practical examples such as heat loss of a pipe, solar heating/cooling systems and heat loss thru a window (two plates of glass with a gas between). An excursion to a large solar-cooling installation with a solar-powered heat pump is a part of the course.
