Vehicle Engines (FSI-QVO)

Academic year 2018/2019
Supervisor: prof. Ing. Václav Píštěk, DrSc.  
Supervising institute: ÚADI all courses guaranted by this institute
Teaching language: Czech
Aims of the course unit:
The aim of the course is to make students familiar with fundamental principles of design of internal combustion engines.
Learning outcomes and competences:
Students will have an overall idea of the design of vehicle combustion engines and their parts.
Prerequisites:
Design of machine part, kinematics and dynamics of machine mechanism, evaluation of these elements regarding mechanics, elasticity, and strength. Thermo cycles of combustion engines and thermal load. Combustion engines maps.
Course contents:
The course deals with the present day conditions and development prospects of vehicle combustion engines. Descriptions of design solutions and functions of individual assembly groups and engine elements are followed by the main functional requirements, achievements and development trends for passenger cars, truck engines, tractor and motorcycle engines.
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:
Credit: mandatory attendance in seminars, presentation and submitting the seminary work. Examination is written and oral. Seminar thesis evaluation is part of the total evaluation.
Controlled participation in lessons:
Attendance in seminars is obligatory, checked by a teacher. The way of compensation of absence is solved individually with a subject provider.
