| Course abstract | |
| The aim of the course is to acquire principles of heat source choice, water and steam boilers' efficiency parameters and those increasing possibilities. The heat balance of boiler equipment and the influence of separate positions to efficiency are analysed. Students obtain the principles of efficiency increasing in heat production, distribution and utilization. | |
| Learning outcomes and their assessment | |
| 1. Knowledge - knows the factors influencing the efficiency of heat production and heat energy consumer equipment and systems, the possibilities to increase it – report.
2. Skills - is able to perform heat production and consumption equipment and systems, heat transfer systems, heat utilization criteria assessment, perform efficiency improvement analysis - report. 3. Competence - evaluation of energy flow in heat production, distribution, use, in application of efficiency improvement solutions - exam. |
