6cp; 4hpwRequisite(s): (68201 Physics in Action OR 68037 Physical Modelling) AND (33290c Statistics and Mathematics for Science OR 33230 Mathematical Modelling 2)
This subject explores the physics and thermodynamics of energy systems. It builds on the concepts of mechanical energy, heat and temperature studied in introductory level subjects and develops an understanding of the physics and thermodynamics underlying conventional and renewable energy systems. The subject builds problem-solving skills in practical applications of energy science. These systems and related issues are explored through lectures, tutorials and project-based work.
