Lec 1 ME 310 Introduction

The document outlines the course objectives, outcomes, and content for a Thermo-Fluid System Design course. The course aims to teach students how to design thermo-fluid systems by applying knowledge from prerequisite courses. Students will complete a group design project involving a thermo-fluid system, presenting their work and a technical report. Key topics include heat exchanger design, two-phase heat transfer equipment, and the design process which involves concept development, analysis, component selection, and report preparation. An example shell and tube heat exchanger design project is presented to illustrate the design process.

Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology

ME 310
Thermo-Fluid System Design
1.5 Credit Hours

INTRODUCTORY CLASS
COURSE OBJECTIVES
oThe design, operation and performance of mechanical
equipment commonly used in thermo-fluid systems will be
reviewed.
oMethods in system simulation and optimization will be
introduced.
oPrior courses in Thermodynamics, Fluid Mechanics and
Heat Transfer will be integrated.
oBased on the knowledge gained in the relevant courses,
the students will need to make a group effort for a thermo-
fluid system design.
2
COURSE OUTCOME
oThis design course will give the students a meaningful design
experience making the use of the knowledge gained in previous
lectures/courses on Heat transfer, Fluid mechanics, Thermodynamics,
and Economics.
oThe students will learn to use different software
(AutoCAD/SOLIDWORKS, MATLAB and more) for the design and
analysis in addition to technical calculations on paper.
oThe students will learn to present their design
oThe students will learn how to write a technical report detailing
both technical and non-technical aspects.

DIFFERENCE BETWEEN DESIGN AND ANALYSIS

Analysis: Application of fundamental principles to a well-defined


problem. All supporting information is normally provided, and
one closed ended solution is possible.

Design: Application of fundamental principles to


an undefined, open problem. All supporting information may not
be available, and assumptions may need to be made. Several
alternatives maybe possible. No single correct answer exists.
4
DESIGN PARAMETERS:
❖ Materials, cost and economics
❖ Safety and reliability
❖ Choice and availability
❖ Optimization
❖ Cyclic service

WHAT IS THERMAL/FLUID DESIGN

6
TYPES OF DESIGN IN THERMO-FLUID SCIENCE
Process Design: The manipulation of physical and/or chemical processes to meet
desired needs.
Example: (a) Introduce boiling or condensation to increase heat transfer rates.
System Design: The process of defining the components and their assembly to
function to meet a specified requirement.
Examples: (a) Steam turbine power plant system consisting of turbines, pumps,
pipes, and heat exchangers. (b) Hot water heating system, complete with boilers.
Subsystem Design: The process of defining and assembling a small group of
components to do a specified function.
Example: Pump/piping system of a large power plant. The pump/piping system
is a subsystem of the larger power plant system used to transport water to and
from the boiler or steam generator.
Component Design: Development of a piece of equipment or device.
