Semester Project (FSI-QS3)

Academic year 2023/2024
Supervisor: Ing. David Svída, Ph.D.  
Supervising institute: ÚADI all courses guaranted by this institute
Teaching language: Czech
Aims of the course unit:
The aim of the course is to practise the collation of theoretical findings, which students learned in other courses.
Learning outcomes and competences:
This course makes students familiar with complex improvement findings of the branch when designing a piston internal combustion engine.
Prerequisites:
Design of machine parts, kinematics and dynamics of machine mechanism, evaluation of these elements regarding mechanics and elasticity and strength. Thermo cycles of combustion engines and thermal load. Combustion engines maps.
Course contents:
This course enables students to acquire the desirable habits of independent design work, with special focus upon the piston combustion engines. Lectures serve to communicate the concept and the procedures related to planning the essential dimensions of an engine. The draft of dimensions of basic engine parts and a preliminary calculation for assessing the preliminary strength. Seminars help to work out a computerized protocol of the basic project parameters of an engine and a corresponding drawing documentation of selected engine parts.
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 course-unit credit requirements: a presentation in seminars and submitting a calculation protocol and drawing documentation. Final evaluation consists of: corectness of calculation and elaboration of drawing and graphic layout of the submitted materials.
Controlled participation in lessons:
Attendance in seminars is obligatory, checked by a teacher. The way of compensation of an absence is solved individually with a subject provider.
Type of course unit:
    Computer-assisted exercise  13 × 6 hrs. compulsory
