Aim:
The course will provide basic knowledge of energy technology, as well as examples of technological applications within various fields. Further, an overview is provided of structure and design of power plants and thermo-technical plants as well as the machinery and equipment found there. Another objective of the course is to provide understanding of the factors influencing the design of energy systems ("boundary conditions"). The course will also provide knowledge of fundamental concepts within compressible flow, and knowledge about moist air and its psychometric chart. After the course the student should be able to:
- describe and define fundamental concepts and relations within applied thermodynamics, fluid mechanics and heat transfer, such as the first law of thermodynamics, relations for flowing fluids and heat exchange.
- give an account of and analyse technical applications such as the steam power process, flow in pipes and heat exchangers.
- give an account of fundamentals within compressible flow and within moist air and including the use of its psychometric chart.
- analyse and calculate engineering problems of the character treated during the course.
- analyse and explain phenomena of energy technology.
- perform laboratory work, evaluate the results and write laboratory report.
- identify obviously unreasonable results.
- contribute to a durable development in the society by applying knowledge from the course to realize technical solutions that give an efficient use of energy under consideration of among other things environmental issues both national and international.
