1. EEN-E1040 Measurement and Control of Energy Systems Introduction lecture, Sep 11th 2017 Welcome!

2. Teaching staff
Responsible teacher Laboratory manager Simo Kilpeläinen (Control demonstration) Other teachers Service Engineer Otto Blomstedt (Combustion engine) Project manager Ari Kankkunen (Temperature measurement) Senior University Lecturer Tuomas Paloposki (Flow measurement) Laboratory manager Kari Saari

3. Goals After passing the course, the student
knows the measurement principles of temperature, humidity, flow and other relevant quantities in energy technology
is able to use regular measuring and data acquisition equipment
is able to identify most important factors influencing the measurement result and measurement uncertainty
is able to estimate measurement uncertainty in a quantitative manner
knows which factors influence the gain and dynamics of a process and is able to tune a PID-controller
Time (h)

5. Laboratory measurements
On Fridays in both fall periods
Done in groups of ~4 people
Measurement + written report
Groups made later today
Period 1 (weeks 38-41):
Temperature measurement
Flow measurement
Period 2 (weeks 45-48):
Control demonstration
Device measurement (combustion engine)

6. Passing the course In order to pass the course, the student needs to:
participate in each of the four laboratory measurements
write a scientific report from each measurement with his/her group and have the reports pass the grading

7. Absences If you can’t make it to your own group’s measurement session:
Inform the teacher responsible for said measurement
Inform the rest of your group
Discuss with the teacher whether you can join another group as a guest at a later (or earlier) time
Write the report with your own group as if you had done the measurements with them

8. Grading Each report is graded on a scale from 0 to 5
This base report grade is the same for the entire group
Individual participation is evaluated via peer-review within the group
Done for each report
Individual report grade can be adjusted by +/- 1 or stay the same as the group grade
Course grade = Average of individual report grades

9. Communication
Course communication will mainly be done via the MyCourses
Places and times to meet at before each measurement
Possible scheduling changes
Addendum to any course materials
Some more individual topics (report feedback etc.) will be discussed over , or in person if requested

10. Teamwork Typical characteristics of teamwork:
People working together towards a common goal
Typical superior-subordinate hierarchy often absent
Try to get along with others in your group!
Teams usually temporary, assembled for e.g. a project
 Take advantage of the situation, get acquainted with others in your team!

11. Assembling a team Skills & Background
Versatility  all grounds covered, individual expertise in various areas adds up and makes the team stronger
Participation possibilities
Scheduling, other limitations
Team chemistry, working manners

12. How to work as a member of a team
Trust: Keep your promises! Reciprocity: Do what others expect you to do, don’t be a freeloader! Equality: Each member of the team is equally important and works towards a common goal. Communication: Make sure to relay important information immediately whether the news is good or bad!

14. Instructions for making groups
6-7 groups in total: one sheet of paper = one group
5 lines on each sheet of paper -> 4-5 students in each group
Write down your name, student number and possible dates/times not suitable for you
Students not present today will get assigned to unfilled/new groups at the discretion of the teachers
Measurement times will be assigned so that as many students as possible can attend their own group’s sessions
