Prerequisite - AC & DC Machines - Introduction to Power Engineering - Thermodynamics Trivia This course is anelective course for students of Bachelor of Engineering in Electrical. Purpose To motivate the students to understand and explore the existing and future technologies of Power Plants. This course does not serve as a prerequisite for any other undergraduate course. However the knowledge acquired will facilitate the student to work in industry, higher studies in the relevant field and in project (if required). Desired Outcomes At the end of the course, students are expected to: - Effectively communicate about power plants and related terminologies - Understand essentials of working of various power plants and their comparison - Acquire basic knowledge of economic, social and environmental issues related with power plants - Enhance knowledge of power plants in multidisciplinary research and work - Use his knowledge for real world problems - Understand codes and standards and other working knowledge in the field Contribution of the Course towards Meeting Professional Goals This course will enable the student to: Understand power plant technologies Use analytical, creative and problem solving skills Work in teams towards a goal Recognize the need for keeping up-to-date in the rapidly changing technological world

Course Policies Exercises, assignments and reportsshall be submitted by due date, No Late Submissions Will Be Entertained. Assigned tasks must be written on A4 size neat papers and should be legible and written in an orderly manner. Keep in mind No plagiarism. There will be 4 quizzes and best 3 will be counted towards final assessment. As per department policy 75% attendance in the class is mandatory in order to qualify to sit in the exam. A group-based working for solving homework problems is allowed. However, the work that you hand-in must be your own. Remember that solving homework problems by yourself will also allow you solving unseen problems that you will be seeing on your class tests and the final examination. Class lectures will NOT cover everything in the recommended text(s). It is expected that youll solve number of examples given in the text(s) which are not covered in the class. Further, you will also be required to solve end-of-the-chapter problems given in the text(s). You are advised to ask questions on the course material being presented to you, and you are expected to participate in the class discussions.
