Engineering Classes

The University of Maryland has offered a class entitled Environmental Engineering (ENME423) which has topics in CHP technology. This is a three credit senior level mechanical engineering class which covers CHP technology and equipment. Also covered are heating and cooling load computations, thermodynamics of refrigeration, low temperature refrigeration, and problems involving extremes of temperature, pressure, acceleration and radiation. Please check the schedule of classes for current availability.

Another class is Energy Systems Analysis (ENME635), which is a three credit graduate level mechanical engineering class. It covers problem definitions using Engineering Equation Solver, vapor compression cycles and conventional power plants, ASHRAE temperature bins, weather data, waste heat utilization, working fluid mixtures, thermodynamic diagrams, generation energy conversion cycles with heat input only, absorption systems, desiccant systems and system integration options.
