Design and Economy (FSI-LPE)

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 aim of the course is to familiarise students with problems of designing thermal power stations, their important nods, as well as with economic aspects of the design.
Learning outcomes and competences:
The course provides students with knowledge and skills necessary to work out the documentation in power engineering including optimal thermal and economic calculations.
Prerequisites:
Knowledge of energy sources, steam turbines and boilers
Course contents:
The course is focused on calculating, developing and designing thermal power stations and their parts(steam and gas turbines, steam boilers) central heating systems, fuel systems and nuclear power stations.
Economy:leasing, net present value,cash flow,internal rate of return.
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:
Graded credit requirements: active participation in the exercises and delivery of a project for the given topic in a given term. Examination: written part consists of questions and examples, oral part in a form of discussion about a given topic.
Controlled participation in lessons:
Participation in the exercises is systematically controlled
