Paper format. 98-Phys-B6 Applied Thermodynamics and Heat Transfer, National Examination May 2013 — an open-book examination (any textbook, reference or non-communicating calculator permitted). Part A (Thermodynamics, Q1–4) and Part B (Heat Transfer, Q5–8) together form the paper; a complete exam is five answers, drawn either three-from-A/two-from-B or two-from-A/three-from-B. Every question is nonetheless answered in full below so the paper remains a complete study resource. All eight questions carry equal value in the grading.
