Learning outcomes
|
Students will learn about the sources of energy from traditional and non-traditional sources in the scope of basic knowledge about the way of technical solution of individual devices, principles of their functioning and current and potential possibilities of obtaining energy.
Students understand the conventional sources of energy, they know basic methods of calculation of technical design of classical sources, they can design a source of energy for a specific purpose and they can manage design and computational design solutions. They can be used in practice when solving unused energy sources, waste heat, etc.
