	Teaching Methods
	THE COURSE IS STRUCTURED INTO A MODULE OF 6 CREDITS AND PROVIDES 60 HOURS OF ASSISTED TEACHING DIVIDED BETWEEN 40 HOURS OF TEACHING IN THE FORM OF LESSONS AND 20 HOURS OF PRACTICE. IN THE CLASSROOM EXERCISES, NUMERICAL EXERCISES ARE ASSIGNED TO THE STUDENTS IN ORDER TO DEEPEN THE CONCEPTS OF THERMODYNAMICS AND HEAT TRANSFER. DURING THE EXERCISES, THE TEACHERS SHALL GUIDE THE STUDENTS IN CARRYING OUT THE ASSIGNED PROBLEM WITH THE AIM OF DEVELOPING AND STRENGTHENING THE STUDENT’S SKILLS IN DEALING WITH THE APPLICATION.

	Verification of learning
	THE LEVEL OF ACHIEVEMENT OF TEACHING OBJECTIVES IS CERTIFIED BY PASSING AN EXAM WITH ASSESSMENT IN 30TH. STUDENTS MUST FIRST TAKE THE WRITTEN EXAM AND THEN THE RELATED ORAL. TO ACCESS THE ORAL EXAMS STUDENTS MUST PASS THE WRITTEN TESTS WITH A MINIMUM RATING OF 18/30. THE RESULTS OF THE WRITTEN TEST ARE AVAILABLE ON THE WEB PAGES OF THE PROFESSOR AND THE ORAL EXAMS WILL BE HELD ON AVERAGE SEVEN DAYS DISTANCE FROM THE WRITTEN TEST. THE PURPOSE OF THE WRITTEN TEST IS TO ASSESS THE STUDENT'S OPERATIONAL CAPABILITIES IN ADDRESSING THE PROBLEMS OF APPLIED THERMODYNAMICS, HEAT TRANSER AND ENERGY SYSTEMS. THE WRITTEN TEST OF INCLUDES TWO EXERCISES, TO BE CARRIED OUT IN 2 HOURS. THE FIRST EXERCISE CONCERNS THE THERMODYNAMIC ANALYSIS OF CLOSED OR OPEN SYSTEMS, OR STEAM POWER PLANT OR HEAT PUMPS. THE SECOND EXERCISE IS ABOUT THE RESOLUTION OF BASIC HEATING PLANTS SCHEMES. IN PARTICULAR, IN THE WRITTEN TEST, THE FOLLOWING CALCULATIONS CAN BE REQUESTED: THERMODYNAMIC PROPERTIES, MECHANICAL AND THERMAL POWER, THERMODYNAMIC EFFICIENCY, INTERNAL, EXTERNAL AND GLOBAL ENTROPIC PRODUCTION. FURTHERMORE, THE GRAPHICAL REPRESENTATION OF PHYSICAL PHENOMENA IS REQUIRED WHEN NECESSARY. FOR THE SOLUTION OF THE EXERCISES IT IS NECESSARY TO USE COMPLEMENTARY DIDACTIC MATERIAL (FORMULAS, DIAGRAMS, TABLES) AVAILABLE ON TEXT OR WEBSITE OF PROF. CUCCURULLO. THE ORAL TEST IS INTENDED TO DEEPEN THE LEVEL OF THEORETICAL KNOWLEDGE, THE AUTONOMY OF ANALYSIS AND JUDGMENT, AS WELL AS THE STUDENT'S EXPOSITIVE CAPABILITIES. DURING THE ORAL EXAMINATION QUESTIONS MAY BE ASKED ABOUT ALL THE PLANNED TOPICS. THE MINIMUM LEVEL OF EVALUATION (18/30) IS ATTRIBUTED WHEN THE STUDENT SHOWS A LIMITED KNOWLEDGE OF THE FUNDAMENTAL CONCEPTS OF THERMODYNAMICS AND HEAT TRANSFER, AS WELL AS LOW EXPOSURE CAPABILITY. THE MAXIMUM LEVEL (30/30) IS ATTRIBUTED WHEN THE STUDENT SHOWS A COMPLETE AND IN-DEPTH KNOWLEDGE OF THE FUNDAMENTAL PRINCIPLES OF THE ABOVE ARGUMENTS AND METHODS AND IS ABLE TO SOLVE THE PROPOSED PROBLEMS BY ADOPTING THE MOST APPROPRIATE APPROACH. THE FINAL VOTE IS OBTAINED AS THE AVERAGE OF THE RESULTS ACHIEVED IN WRITTEN AND ORAL TESTS. HONORS ARE ATTRIBUTED WHEN THE CANDIDATE EXHIBITS HIGH-LEVEL THEORETICAL AND OPERATIVE SKILLS, AS WELL AS GOOD COMMUNICATION AND AUTONOMOUS PROCESSING CAPABILITIES, EVEN IN AREAS OTHER THAN THOSE PROPOSED BY THE PROFESSORS.
