The purpose of this paper is to describe a new technical elective course in the thermal-fluid sciences, entitled Design and Optimization of Thermal-Fluid Systems. This course involves the application of the principles of thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, and heat transfer to the design of thermal systems with an emphasis on modeling, simulation, economic analysis, and optimization. Unique course activities and student learning outcomes are presented. Several textbooks and software tools that might be used in the course are also discussed.
