The aim of the course is to provide a technical assessment to implement theoretical aspects and the practical borders for thermal power generation systems, operational performance for thermal power plants, concepts of system upgrades for recycling of waste heat to utilise technology solutions by carrying out combined energy systems for higher total efficiency improvement. The course contains six main subjects;
After passing the course, the student should be able to:
ILO1: Evaluate the operational characteristics of the most common systems for thermal power generation to identify practical limitations of operational performance
ILO2: Identify and quantify the way to improve the total energy efficiency by means of system integration concepts
ILO3: Design adapted energy systems for realistic applications and evaluate its technical-economical feasibility, environmental impact and the sustainability of the proposed concepts.
