Course content

Introduction to marine machinery systems - technology, design, performance and control of auxiliary systems. Introduction to thermal engineering basics focusing on heat transfer and heat exchanger systems, thermofluid systems in general , pumps and liquid transfer systems, hydraulic systems, steam and HVAC systems plus energy efficiency, waste heat recovery and energy harvesting.

Learning outcome

After completing this course, the student should be able to demonstrate knowledge to

  • Understand and assess the importance of technology, heat transfer and thermofluid systems in relation to safe and economical energyefficient design, operation and control of marine machinery systems in general and auxiliary systems particularly.
  • Understand and carry out calculations for heat transfer mechanisms in thermal systems relevant for marine applications.
  • Understand, design and evaluate heat exchanger systems, their operation and control in marine applications.
  • Understand, design and evaluate basic hydraulic systems, their operation and control in marine applications.
  • Understand and carry out design and performance calculations for pump- and liquid transfer systems, steam- and HVAC systems and possibly other novel systems of interest of relevance when new technology is introduced.
  • Understand, design and evaluate options for solutions and technology for waste heat recovery and energy harvesting in marine machinery systems.

Learning methods and activities

Lectures, exercises, computer exercises, laboratory exercises. All lectures will be in English.

Compulsory assignments

  • Compulsory exercises

Further on evaluation

Aggregated assessment is the basis for the grade in the course. A written school exam counting 70% and project work counting 30% is the basis for the final grade. A letter grade is given for each part and a final letter grade will be assigned.

Examination papers will be given in English only. Students are free to choose Norwegian or English for written assessments. Postponed/repeated exams may be oral. For a re-take of an examination, all assessments during the course must be re-taken.

Required previous knowledge

TEP4110 Fluid Mechanics, TEP4120 Engineering Thermodynamics 1 or equivalent

Course materials

Selections from textbooks, notes and lecture notes. To be specified at semester start.
