COMBUSTION THEORY

The year 2001 this course will be performed as a self-study course. The teacher tells you what to read (see below) and which problems you must do from week to week. If you handle in the problems to the teacher continuously this will be your examination (level 3) ! You can give your calculations to the teacher, or discuss with him, whenever he is available. Mistakes on the' calculations must be corrected!! If you will try to get a higher level on the course you must participate in a written examination with additional theoretical questions, the date decided together with the teacher. Inside the CompEdu program you have a number of examples for each chapter for your own training! Teacher: Anders Nordstrand
