General description

A materia baséase no coñecemento e aplicación dos métodos computacionais en procesos de transferencia de calor e fluxo de fluídos, para o deseño e cálculo de equipos e sistemas
de instalacións mariñas.
Acadarase destreza suficiente para coñecer as limitacións do método e a precisión dos resultados obtidos, tendo en conta as hipóteses de partida.

Methodologies

Methodologies	Description
Guest lecture / keynote speech	There will be a detailed explanation of the contents of the material, distributed across topics. The student will have a typed copy of the subject matter in each keynote session. Students are encouraged to participate in class, through comments linking the theoretical contents with real life experiences.
Problem solving	Problems will be solved for each item proposed, allowing the application of mathematical models appropriate to each case, including managing software, applying the most appropriate assumptions, the theoretical relation developed in lectures and relation with professional practice
Supervised projects	Problems more difficult than those solved in class or issues of special relevance.
Objective test	The degree of acquired knowledge about the contents assessed, taking into account both theory and problem solving.

Personalized attention

Methodologies

Problem solving

Supervised projects

Description

The student is guided in all contents, specially those difficult to understand. The corresponding revisions of examinations are also included. Channels of information and contact will be the Virtual School together individualized tutoring for six hours throughout the week.

Assessment

Methodologies	Description	Qualification
Guest lecture / keynote speech	Attendance at the sessions will count as part of the final grade Assessed competencies: B1, B2, B3, B4, B5, B6, B7, B10, B11, C1, C2, C4, C6, C7, C8	10
Problem solving	Problem solving, if possible, with software. Assessed competencies: A20; A21; A22; B2; B4; B5; B7; B11	10
Objective test	The degree of acquired knowledge about the learning contents is assessed, taking into account both the theoretical part and the problems. Understanding of basic topics, problem solving strategies , evolution and capacity to analyse criticaly are assessed. Two term exams contribute to 70% of the qualification. Final objetive test with the same contribution is programmed for students who failed term exams. Assessed competencies: A20; A21; A22; B1; B2; B3; B4; B5; B6; B7; B10; B11; C1; C2; C4; C6; C7; C8	70
Supervised projects	Presentation and defense of the work. Structure, neatness, originality and expository method are valued. Assessed comptencies: A20; A21; A22; B2; B3; B4; B5; B6; B7; B10; B11; C1;C6	10

Assessment comments
A final examination to collect all course methodologies and representing 100% of the grade, is planned for those students with assistance less than 80% of programmed teaching methodologies (85 % of supervised projects), as long as they pass mandatory laboratory practices. The evaluation criteria listed in Table A-III 2, of the STCW Code, as amended, relating to this matter will be taken into account when designing and conducting evaluation.
