lämpötekniikan
Lämpötekniikka, often translated as heat engineering or thermal engineering, is a branch of mechanical engineering that deals with the principles of thermodynamics and their application to the design and operation of thermal systems. It encompasses the study of heat transfer, fluid mechanics, and the conversion of thermal energy into mechanical work and vice versa. Key areas within lämpötekniikka include the analysis of heat exchangers, engines, turbines, refrigeration cycles, and combustion processes.
The fundamental principles of lämpötekniikka are derived from the laws of thermodynamics, which describe the behavior
The field also plays a significant role in energy efficiency and sustainability efforts. By understanding and
