Content and learning outcomes
Course contents
The course is structured in the form of a project to be implemented using a modeling tool for power analysis. In some cases, the project will have clients from industry. The course begins with lectures relevant support for the project and the software to be used and then the project will be conducted in groups or individually, where follow-up workshops are in support of the project. The results of the study will be presented in a report and an oral presentation.
Intended learning outcomes
After successfully completed the course the student should
1. Formulate the simulation schematics and develop skills for computer modeling of complex power cycles and systems.
2. Analyze the layout, simulate the performance and evaluate the sensitivity parameters for various integrated polygeneration cycles and systems.
