5 PRACTICAL INTRODUCTION TO ENGINEERING 5 Week Course - 6-9pm 2 evenings per week 17 TH JAN ND FEB TH SEPT TH OCT TH NOV TH DEC 2017 UNIT 52: ENERGY MANAGEMENT LEVEL 5 25 Week Course - 6-9pm, 2 evenings per week 17 TH JAN TH JUL TH SEPT TH MAY 2018 This unit investigates energy management principles and techniques. The principal focus is to establish and develop an energy audit in the context of a plant engineering environment. This unit is concerned with energy conservation, including energy conservation awareness for both the organisation and personnel. Integral to the content is environmental management, which is now becoming ever increasingly important in energy conservation. Greater gains, both environmentally and economically, can be achieved by cutting down on waste and maximising the efficient use of energy. Through case studies learners will investigate how environmental objectives and targets are achieved in different industrial or commercial organisations. Learners will understand how this is achieved through co-ordinating personnel, systems, strategy, resources and structures. Learners will work on a project to ascertain the overall annual heat energy losses (or gains) of an operational building which houses plant engineering equipment and process plant. Architectural plans providing details of the building fabric and design may be helpful in calculating any heat energy gains or losses. The energy audit need not be confined to this type of project but to arrive at the outcomes the learner must demonstrate the ability to apply heat energy management concepts. Progression could be onto an HNC/D or a higher apprenticeship depending on experience and prior qualifications. Experience what it is like to be an engineer with a practical introduction. The course will include a basic introduction to milling, turning, and hand fitting whilst also giving an appreciation of CAD and CNC.
