  • Determine thermodynamic principles and techniques required to evaluate system and select and optimise components
  • Determine appropriate analysis techniques, software and software validation techniques
       
Element: Evaluate thermodynamic applications and components
  • Assess the performance of heat transfer devices
  • Assess heat engine performance
  • Assess combustion processes
  • Assess steam processes
  • Assess refrigeration and air conditioning processes
  • Assess air compression processes
  • Record outcomes of evaluation

Submission Requirements

List each assessment task's title, type (eg project, observation/demonstration, essay, assignment, checklist) and due date here

Assessment task 1: [title]      Due date:

(add new lines for each of the assessment tasks)


Assessment Tasks

Copy and paste from the following data to produce each assessment task. Write these in plain English and spell out how, when and where the task is to be carried out, under what conditions, and what resources are needed. Include guidelines about how well the candidate has to perform a task for it to be judged satisfactory.
Copy and paste from the following performance criteria to create an observation checklist for each task. When you have finished writing your assessment tool every one of these must have been addressed, preferably several times in a variety of contexts. To ensure this occurs download the assessment matrix for the unit; enter each assessment task as a column header and place check marks against each performance criteria that task addresses.
