General proficiencies
CB6: Possess and understand knowledge that provides a basis or opportunity to be original in the development and / or application of ideas, often in a research context.
CB7: That the students know how to apply the acquired knowledge and the ability to solve problems in new or unfamiliar environments within broader (or multidisciplinary) contexts related to their area of ¿¿study.
CB8: That students are able to integrate knowledge and face the complexity of making judgments based on information that, being incomplete or limited, reflections on social and ethical responsibilities linked to the application of their knowledge and judgments.
CB10: That students raise learning skills that allow them to continue studying in a way that has become largely self-directed or autonomous.
CG2: Project, calculate and design products, processes, facilities and plants.
CG3: Direct, plan and send multidisciplinary teams.
CG4: Carry out research, development and innovation in products, processes and methods.
Specific proficiencies
CMT5: Knowledge and skills for the design and analysis of machines and thermal engines, hydraulic machines and industrial heat and cold installations.
Learning outcomes
RA1: Pose and solve complex heat transfer systems and apply to the calculation and design of heat exchangers.
RA2: Acquire knowledge in matters related to thermotechnology, which will enable him to learn new methods and theories, and give him versatility to adapt to new situations.
RA3: Express and communicate ideas and systems related to the transmission of thermal energy such as heat exchangers, refrigeration systems, thermal and hydraulic machines.
RA4: Acquire knowledge and skills for the calculation of thermal and fluid installations.
RA5: Understand and develop professional technical documentation on topics of heat exchangers and refrigeration.
RA6: Master the methods and procedures of estimation and design in thermal and fluid subjects.

| Learning outcome |
Assessment activity |
Weight (%) | It allows test resit |
Minimum required grade |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| RA1, RA2, RA3, RA4, RA6 | Long-answer exam | 70 % | Yes (retake exam) | No |
| RA3, RA4, RA5 | Laboratory exercises (attendance is mandatory) | 15 % | No | No |
| RA1, RA3, RA5, RA6 | Teamwork project (mandatory) | 10 % | No | No |
| RA3, RA6 | Oral presentation of the teamwork project (mandatory) | 5 % | No | No |
Note: The subject is divided in two different parts: thermal transfer and fluids. In order to pass the subject it is mandatory to obtain a minimum of 4 (out of 10 points) at each of the parts. Moreover, it is compulsory (and not recoverable) to attend all laboratory exercises and to carry out the teamwork project (along with the oral presentation, if required). The student who does not perform both activities will obtain a final grade not greater than 4 (out of 10 points) in the subject.
