The University of Jordan – Faculty of Engineering and Technology

Mechanical Engineering Department (Fall 2016)

Course Description
 Course Title: Thermal and Fluid Sciences
 Course No.: 0904248
 Instructor (s): Dr. Mohammad Alrbai
 Email: [email protected]
 Office:
 Office Hours: 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm or by apointment
 Prerequisites: 0901241,0934221

Course Objectives:

The objectives of this course are:


1. Introduce the non-mechanical engineering studnets ( both industrial and mechatronics
Engineering students) to basic knowledge of three major subjects in mechanical engineering:
Thermodynamics, heat transfer, and fluid mechanics. The Physics describing the fundamental
phenomena will be emphasized, while a sufficient mathematical description to permit the
solution of simple problems in the thermal-fluid sciences will be provided.
2. Train the students to use the above concepts in formualting and solving engineering problems
they encounter in daily life.

Expected Outcomes:

Upon the successful completion of this course, the students are expected to develop the following
skills/understandings:

1- Understand the concept of thermodynamic properties tables and use them to define the state
of the material under investigation.
2- Understand the concept of open and closed thermodyanmic systems.
3- Understand conservation laws of energy and mass and apply them to open and closed
thermodynamic systems.
4- Understand the physical significance of first and second Laws of thermodynamics and apply
them on engineering devices and machines.
5- Understand the concpet of Carnot heat engine, refrigerarator, and heat pump and to be able to
link them directly to engineering problems.
6- Understand the concept of hydrostatic pressure and force and learn how to calcualte them on
submerged plane objects.
7- Understand the concepts of fluid flow, energy losses, major and minor losses during flow in
a conduit, Reynolds number.
8- 11- Understand the physical and mathematical significance of flow in a conduit.
9- Understand the three mechanisms of heat transfer between two objects (conduction,
convection, and radiation) and be able to identify each of them.
10- Understand the steady heat conduction, concept of thermal network and analogy between
thermal circuits and electrical circuits.
11- Understand the transient heat conduction, lumped capacitance method and its applications
