Operation of District Heating Equipment (FSI-FSC)

Academic year 2018/2019
Supervisor: doc. Ing. Jan Fiedler, Dr.  
Supervising institute: EÚ all courses guaranted by this institute
Teaching language: Czech
Aims of the course unit:
The course provides students with the basic completed heating plant and their design, used calculation methods and their operational conditions. Special attention is paid to individual procedures used in the European Union.
Learning outcomes and competences:
The course objective is to make students familiar with the basic design procedures of Heating Plant equipment, manufacture and assembly of heating equipment.
Prerequisites:
Basic knowledge from thermodynamics.
Course contents:
Students who have completed the course will able to design District Heating and Combi - cycle, storage tanks and other compo nents of heating plant units.
Teaching methods and criteria:
The course is taught through lectures explaining the basic principles and theory of the discipline. Exercises are focused on practical topics presented in lectures.
Assesment methods and criteria linked to learning outcomes:
Course-unit credit requirements: Active attendance at seminars. The exam has written test, the student has to prove acquired theoretical and practical knowledge.
Controlled participation in lessons:
Active attendance at seminars is checked. The written report has to be worked out when a seminar was missed. This report has to be produced for verification.
