Aims of the course unit: | ||||
Provide knowledge for practical, theoretical, experimental and scientific activity in area of combustion engines. | ||||
Learning outcomes and competences: | ||||
Students learn individual concepts from the theory of internal combustion engines, get acquainted with the basic systems of internal combustion engines, determine their characteristic dimensions and gain knowledge about computational models of these systems. | ||||
Prerequisites: | ||||
Prerequisites and co-requisites The student must have knowledge corresponding to subjects of theoretical basis of bachelor study in the field of engineering education, especially thermomechanics. | ||||

Course contents: | ||||
Learning outcomes of the course unit The subject acquaints students with knowledge of internal combustion engine theory with a view to thermodynamics of working cycles, combustion and heat transfer. | ||||
Teaching methods and criteria: | ||||
The course is taught through lectures explaining the basic principles and theory of the discipline. Teaching is suplemented by practical laboratory work. | ||||
Assesment methods and criteria linked to learning outcomes: | ||||
Credit is conditioned by active participation in exercises, proper elaboration of reports and fulfillment of conditions of control tests. The exam verifies the knowledge gained in lectures and seminars, it is written including the test and can have an oral part verifying the knowledge. |
||||
Controlled participation in lessons: | ||||
Seminars are obligatory, checked by a teacher. The way of compensation of missed lessons (in justified cases) is solved individually with the course guarantee person. | ||||
