Learner goals and capabilities

Student group(s) will review and understand the system/concept/expectation, review literature, develop appropriate models for the thermodynamic/heat transfer devices. If necessary, they will evaluate and assess the components and features of the system to suggest and develop alternative, cost-effective, and efficient models.

In groups of max 4 students, 3rd/4th-year students in Mechanical Engineering will spend in total 35 hours each student working with your company to develop, analyze, evaluate, model and/or design concept of interest.
