Directional subjects for Bachelor Studies of Mechanical Engineering, Power and Process Engineering, scope to Process Engineering.

  • Chemistry
    • Teacher: prof. Ing. Rudolf Žitný, CSc.; Ing. Jaromír Štancl, Ph.D.
    • Annotation: General chemistry from the point of view of mechanical and process engineering. Physical chemistry forms 2/3 of the course (structure and properties of matter, thermodynamics, phase equilibrium, chemical reactions, reaction engineering), the remaining 1/3 is devoted to organic chemistry (hydrocarbons, polymers) and biochemistry. Laboratory practice is oriented upon the material properties measurement.
  • Momentum, Heat and Mass Transfer
    • Teacher: prof. Ing. Rudolf Žitný, CSc.; Ing. Karel Petera, Ph.D.
    • Annotation: Fundamentals of transport phenomena balances in homogeneous fluids. Navier-Stokes equations. Momentum transport in turbulent flows. Mechanical energy equation. Residence time distributions in continuous systems. Conduction heat transfer. Forced and natural convection heat transfer. Heat transfer with phase changes and thermal radiation. Multicomponent systems. Mass transfer by molecular diffusion, convection, with chemical reactions and interphase mass transfer.
  • Heat Transfer Equipment
    • Teacher: Ing. Martin Dostál, Ph.D.
    • Annotation: Fundamentals of thermodynamics and conductive and convective heat transfer. Enthalpy balancing. Technical thermodynamics and basic thermodynamic cycles. Functional description, mechanical design, thermal and hydraulic design of a heat exchangers, evaporators and dryers.
  • Hydromechanical Equipment
    • Teacher. Prof. Ing. Tomáš Jirout, Ph.D.
    • Annotation: Design, principles and basic calculations of following equipment: pipes and pipe networks, packed and bubble columns, filters, settlers, centrifuges and cyclones, fluidized beds, mixing equipment, silos and conveyors, crushers and mills, granulators, extruders, injection and blow moulding machines, rolls and calenders.
  • Diffusion Separation Equipment
    • Teacher: prof.Ing. Pavel Ditl, DrSc.; assoc.prof.Radek Šulc, Ph.D.
    • Annotation: Classis from Equipment for diffusion separation processes are giving a basic knowledge of processes and equipments where gas or liquid mixture is been separated due to principals of physical-chemical equilibriums or on the basis of mass transfer mechanisms. They are used for concentrating of products from dilute solutions or in turn for purification of diluted gasses or liquid solutions.
  • Basic Equipment Design
    • Teacher: assoc. prof. Ing. Lukáš Krátký, Ph.D.
    • Annotation: Basic methodology of process equipment design. Used materials and their properties. Corrosion and mechanical wear of process equipment, corrosion prevention. Equipment design from the technological point of view. Dimensioning of basic equipment parts – oscillation, pressure stress. Welding solutions – welding methods, weld types and their usage. Piping system calculations.
  • Project 
    • Teacher. Prof. Ing. Tomáš Jirout, Ph.D.
    • Annotation: Design of hydromechanical processes and equipment, heat processes and equipment, or difusion-separation processes and equipment.
