Teaching Methodologies and Assessment Criteria |
Teaching follows a combination of theoretical and theoretical-practical methods. There are 2 lessons per week, each lasting 2 hours. In the lectures, theoretical concepts are explained and practical illustrations of these concepts are given. In the theoretical-practical classes, numerical exercises are solved that have to do with the concrete application of theory to thermal engineering problems. In addition, there are two periods during the semester in which laboratory work is carried out.
Assessment:
Teaching/Learning: a written test (TE) and experimental laboratory work (TEL). The minimum mark for the written test is 8.5. The final grade is given by the formula NF=0.825NTE+0.175NTEL
Exams: a written test (TE) and experimental teaching/learning laboratory work (TEL). The minimum mark for the written test is 8.5. The final mark is given by the formula NF=0.825NTE+0.175NTEL
Written tests are with consultation of a form.
Final grades above 16 require an oral exam.
