Performing engineering / scientific experiments at a high level is much needed both in industry and in research and is considered as a field by itself in the world of engineering. This course is designed to provide students with basic concepts of measurement systems while emphasizing the limitations and measurement errors as well as ways to deal with those errors. The course is an integral course that combines different subjects from the fields of engineering and statistics to deeply understand the important characteristics of the measurement system and its features.
This course consists of two parts: CAD and mechanical design, where both parts of the course have a common task: design a mechanism in accordance with procedures up to a full production portfolio level.
The course will review power plant components and methods of analysis, proper thermodynamic design in combination with economic considerations, post-production tests.
