Prerequisites
Thermodynamics, Fluid Mechanics, Heat TransferIntended learning outcomes
The aim of the course is to provide some basic but fundamental knowledge and understanding about the functionality of turbine engines. This knowledge will enable the students how a turbine engine can be highly efficient while having the least impact on environment. That is to aim for a green energy to contribute in sustainable development.
Course content
Fundamentals of thermodynamics, fluid mechanics and aerodynamics are discussed for a turbine engine from an analytical and theoretical perspective. Furthermore, the functionality of different components such as compressor, combustor and turbine, common in all types of turbine engines, would be introduced.
Turbine engines have wide ranges of application such as in Aerospace Industry (Jet Engines), in Power Plant Industry (Gas Turbines, Steam Turbines), and in Automotive and Marine Industry (Turbofans, Turbochargers). However, in this course Gas turbines and Jet Engines are discussed in more details.
Teaching and working methods
The educational methods consist of lectures, seminars and labs. Seminars are given by guest lecturers from industrial partners such as Siemens Industrial Turbomachinery AB, SAAB Group, GKN Aerospace and etc.
To deepen the obtained knowledge, study visits from turbine engine manufacturers is planned.

Regulations (apply to LiU in its entirety)
The university is a government agency whose operations are regulated by legislation and ordinances, which include the Higher Education Act and the Higher Education Ordinance. In addition to legislation and ordinances, operations are subject to several policy documents. The Linköping University rule book collects currently valid decisions of a regulatory nature taken by the university board, the vice-chancellor and faculty/department boards.
LiU’s rule book for education at first-cycle and second-cycle levels is available at http://styrdokument.liu.se/Regelsamling/Innehall/Utbildning_pa_grund-_och_avancerad_niva.
