(408) 679-0352 (cell) patcaton.umd@gmail.com Course Description Course Overview This course is designed to give students an understanding of the principles and design concepts associated with important fuel – engine aspects of modern and advanced mobility power systems. Emphasis is given to state of the art and emerging IC engine and fuel cell technologies such as those applied to modern and advanced automotive (i.e. self-propelled) vehicles. Prerequisites Undergraduate course in thermodynamics, heat transfer, and fluid mechanics; or ENPM 672 (Fundamentals of Thermal Systems). Course Requirements Six homework assignments will enable students to practice quantitative and qualitative analysis related to engines. Four virtual labs will allow students to explore relationships among real engine operational data and synthesize results. Learning will also be assessed through two mid-course exams, each of which will have an open-book analysis portion and a timed, closed-book portion. Required Technology Students will find the using software tools such as Excel, EES, and/or MATLAB helpful, though not required. We will utilize Java-based online applications (free and openly available on the internet) based at Colorado State University (http://www.engr.colostate.edu/~allan/engines.html). These applications were developed by one of the authors of the optional text for the course, and will facilitate interesting engine calculations. Instructor Patrick Caton, Ph.D., P.E.
