Curses offered in Spring, 2017
ENME 321 – Transfer Processes
The purpose of ENME 321 is to introduce the use of the applicable physical principles and rate equations in the determination of the energy transfer rates.
ENME 489/816 – Heat and Mass Transfer in Manufacturing Processes
ENME 489/816T course is intended to provide an introduction of heat and mass transfer and their application in advanced manufacturing processes. Manufacturing is important technologically, economically, and historically. It provides society and its members with products that are needed or desired. However, it is relatively little appreciated that each manufacturing process involves heat and mass transfer at some stage. Transfer of energy and mass in a system is essential to form an object of desired shape, properties, and functions. This course will cover convective heat and mass transfer and basic phase change processes such as solidification and deposition from a vapor phase. The basic principles of heat and mass transfer will be applied to analyze thermal processes involved in a number of manufacturing processes – metal casting, crystal growth, coating, and additive manufacturing. Students will not only achieve fundamental understanding of these manufacturing processes, but also learn how to obtain information on momentum, mass, and energy transfer in manufacturing systems for process design and optimization. This course is designed to be project-intensive and students will have the opportunity to apply their knowledge and skills acquired in this course to develop realistic models for real world problems and to perform virtual experiments using simulation software.
