Exhaust emission controlLaajuus (5 cr)

Objective

Completed to this course, student will understood main variables of combustion processes of a combustion engine and can describe their effects to a formation of exhaust emissions and performance of the engine. The objective of this course will also be, that student can use some engine simulation software and understand main purposes of an engine laboratory equipment’s and can produce basic experimental studies. Student will also understand the importance of exhaust emission legislation and alternative fuels to the development of engine technology. Student will get more practice to presentation skills, working in groups and use of English language.
