151-0235-00L | Thermodynamics of Novel Energy Conversion Technologies | 4 KP | 3G | C. S. Sharma, D. Poulikakos, G. Sansavini | |
Kurzbeschreibung | In the framework of this course we will look at a current electronic thermal and energy management strategies and novel energy conversion processes. The course will focus on component level fundamentals of these process and system level analysis of interactions among various energy conversion components. | ||||
Lernziel | This course deals with liquid cooling based thermal management of electronics, reuse of waste heat and novel energy conversion and storage systems such as batteries, fuel cells and micro-fuel cells. The focus of the course is on the physics and basic understanding of those systems as well as their real-world applications. The course will also look at analysis of system level interactions between a range of energy conversion components. | ||||
Inhalt | Part 1: Fundamentals: - Overview of exergy analysis, Single phase liquid cooling and micro-mixing; - Thermodynamics of multi-component-systems (mixtures) and phase equilibrium; - Electrochemistry; Part 2: Applications: - Basic principles of battery; - Introduction to fuel cells; - Reuse of waste heat from supercomputers - Hotspot targeted cooling of microprocessors - Microfluidic fuel cells Part3: System- level analysis - Integration of the components into the system: a case study - Analysis of the coupled operations, identification of critical states - Support to system-oriented design | ||||
Skript | Lecture slides will be made available. Lecture notes will be available for some topics (in English). | ||||
Voraussetzungen / Besonderes | The course will be given in English: 1- Mid-term examination: Mid-term exam grade counts as 20% of the final grade. 2- Final exam: Written exam during the regular examination session. It counts as 80% of the final grade. | ||||

Kurzbeschreibung | This course is a mixture between a seminar primarily for PhD and postdoc students and a colloquium involving invited speakers. It consists of presentations and subsequent discussions in the area of modeling complex socio-economic systems and crises. Students and other guests are welcome. | ||||
Lernziel | Participants should learn to get an overview of the state of the art in the field, to present it in a well understandable way to an interdisciplinary scientific audience, to develop novel mathematical models for open problems, to analyze them with computers, and to defend their results in response to critical questions. In essence, participants should improve their scientific skills and learn to work scientifically on an internationally competitive level. | ||||
Inhalt | This course is a mixture between a seminar primarily for PhD and postdoc students and a colloquium involving invited speakers.
