ORGANISATIONAL COMPONENT
1. USING THE STUDY GUIDE This document consists of three parts. In the first part, introductory and organisational information are given, for example who the lecturer is, what to expect from the lecturer and what is expected from you. The second part contains very important study component information and the third part is the laboratory and experimental guides. 2. DEPARTMENTAL STUDY GUIDE ThisstudyguideisacrucialpartofthegeneralstudyguideoftheDepartment.Inthestudyguideofthe Department , information is given on themission and vision of the department , generaladministration and regulations (professionalism and integrity, course related information andformalcommunication,workshopuseandsafety,plagiarism,classrepresentativeduties,sicktestand sick exam guidelines, vacation work, appeal process and adjustment ofmarks, universityregulations, frequently asked questions), ECSA outcomes and ECSA exit level outcomes, ECSAknowledgeareas,CDIO,newcurriculumandassessmentofcognitivelevels.ItisexpectedthatyouareveryfamiliarwiththecontentoftheDepartmentalStudyGuide.ItisavailableinEnglishandAfrikaansontheDepartment’swebsite.English:http://www.up.ac.za/media/shared/120/Noticeboard/2017/departmental‐studyguide‐eng‐2017.zp107056.pdfAfrikaans:http://www.up.ac.za/media/shared/120/Noticeboard/2017/departementele‐studiegids‐afr‐2017.zp107058.pdfTakenoteofthespecificinstructionsintheabovestudyguideon:

3. GENERAL PREMISE AND EDUCATIONAL APPROACH
The aim of the module ThermoflowMTV310 is to provide the student with the basicprinciplesoffluidmechanicsandconductionheattransferandtheirapplicationinavarietyofpracticalengineeringproblems.Aftersuccessfulcompletionofthecourse,thestudentwillbe able to solve such problems independently. The general aimwith thismodule is toemphasise understanding rather than memorising, in order to stimulate creativethinkingandthedevelopmentofinnovativeskillsamongststudentsintheareaoffluidmechanicsandintroductoryheattransfer.Fluidmechanicsisasciencethatdescribesthemechanicsanddynamicsoffluids(liquidsandgases)andisbasedontheconservationlawsofmass,momentumandenergy.Thesethreelawsarecontinuouslycastinthemostapplicableandsimplestformtodescribethe

Student-centred and co-operative learning and teaching methods are applied during lectures in order to optimally develop the above skills, as well as to stimulate the development of communication skills, interpersonal skills and group dynamics. It is expected that you would participate in discussions during lectures, as your fellow students are dependent on your inputs. Refer to the Departmental Study Guide for the outcomes of this Module in the ECSA framework. 4. LECTURERS, VENUES AND CONSULTING HOURS
