2 EN337 3 rd Class Power Engineering Lab; Page 2 of 5 EN337 Version: 1 Calendar Description 3rd Class Power Engineering Lab This 200 hour Lab is designed to meet the mandates that is set out by ABSA. The primary purpose of a Power Engineering Lab is to supply a quality teaching aid so that the students can have some practical application of what they are being taught. This is done by: Exposure to equipment comparable to what they could be operating in plants. Simulating conditions that would be encountered in real life situations. Challenging the students to think and work through problems that are created for them. Using a Power Plant Simulator. P/F. Rationale This is a required course for the Heavy Oil Power Engineering students. These 200 hour labs are created with the mindset that the student gains confidence and the ability to operate different plants and processes in a safe and efficient manner. The labs are trying to create life in a boiler house. Prerequisites Students must possess a 4th Class Certificate in Power Engineering for the Province of Alberta. Co-Requisites None Course Learning Outcomes Upon successful completion of this course, students will be able to 1. demonstrate when applicable and explain how to switch over fuel in a multifuel boiler system. 2. demonstrate or explain how to clean a burner assembly. 3. test boiler interlocks.

Note many other numerous objectives regarding steam driven Turbine/Generators, Simulators, Internal combustion engines and auxiliaries, Electric motors, Refrigeration, Deaerator, Feedwater pumps and heat exchangers, water treatment and equipment and air compression.

PPE: To participate in all HOPE labs, students are required to wear a minimum of hard hat, safety glasses, safety gloves, steel-toed boots, and coveralls. In lieu of coveralls, the student may wear a long sleeve shirt and pants of cotton type material. NO short sleeve shirts NO shorts or skirts of any kind NO open-toed shoes are allowed in the working areas of the lab NO Jewellery Hair must be trim and tied back. Any physical limitations must be identified prior to entering and participating in the HOPE and HOOT labs. Orientation for all offsite Heavy Oil and Power Lab visits are mandatory. Evaluation Procedures The Student must participate and acquire the 200hrs in order to pass the course. This is a pass/fail course. Our goal is to provide plant experiences in our lab so that students will be able to troubleshoot in their industry careers. Students will engage in hands on equipment and are expected to perform routine, start up, operate and shut down of lab equipment. Grade Equivalents and Course Pass Requirements The final mark is given as a pass or fail ("P" or "F"). Attendance NO LABS CAN BE MISSED, the student must complete the 200 hours as set by ABSA.
