Education

EMME Minor – Fluid Mechanics and Energy (MFE)

The MFE minor starts after the first 3 semesters in the EMME degree.

Objectives

The MFE minor offers future engineers an in-depth study of fluid mechanics and energy. They will acquire knowledge and skills in the modeling and dimensioning of energy systems, including different types of fluid flow and heat transfer or exchange. Turbulence, aerodynamics and combustion are also covered in depth. Experimental and numerical modeling tools and methods are studied, with the use of industrial equipment and software.

Specific skills

  • Contribute to modeling to predict, prevent and manage processes and procedures (hydraulics, aerodynamics, compressible or incompressible fluids, turbomachinery, etc.)
  • Design, dimension and carry out installation tests and numerical simulations of flows in complex systems
  • Contribute to the continuous improvement of fluid and thermal engineering installations
  • Design heating, ventilation and air-conditioning installations for energy systems
  • Design and optimize industrial installations where energy conversion and heat transfer play a major role

Students in the MFE minor have the opportunity to follow the Energy program in partnership with the École des Mines of Nancy.
