The industrial revolution may have been fired by coal, but it was powered by steam. Humans have been harnessing the power of steam for thousands of years, but it is only in the past 200 years that we have started to rely on it for countless engineering applications. This course looks at the origins of steam, its theory (thermodynamics), generation, and applications.

You will learn:

  • Why we use steam instead of other energy fluids.

  • The history of steam in engineering.

  • Heat fundamentals (thermodynamics, latent heat, sensible heat etc.).

  • Heat transfer (conduction, convection and radiation etc.).

  • Combustion theory (efficiency, heat values etc.).

  • Steam properties (wet, dry, saturated, enthalpy etc.).

  • Boilers (designs, advantages, disadvantages etc.).

And a lot more!

Irrespective of your engineering background, learning about steam will greatly benefit your engineering career. Steam systems are used at almost every industrial facility, so you can apply 100% of what you have learned to the real world.

Who should attend this course

  • This course is designed for industry professionals.

  • This course is beneficial for anyone in the Oil & Gas, HVAC, chemical engineering, mechanical engineering, or power engineering industries.

Prerequisites: 

  • An engineering background is beneficial, but is not mandatory.

Level: Foundation

Access to the course. 
After your purchase is confirmed you receive an account to the EngineeringTrainer online learning portal, where you find the course in your dashboard. After opening the course you will be guided step-by-step through the different modules. You receive 1-year unlimited access to the course. This allows you to perform modules again if this is beneficial for your work projects.

The course is mainly based on video content: video lectures and interactve 3D model video demonstrations. The course is packed with 2D images, 2D animations and 3D animations. Interactive 3D models are used extensively to show you exactly how valves and their components work. English subtitles are available and videos can be viewed as many times as desired. The video lectures help you to grasp the important technical concepts.

This course is self-paced and is not subject to specific dates. The course contains 7 modules with a total of 3 hours of content which can be performed at your own pace. A Personal Certificate will be provided to you if you finish the course within the first month after starting. This incentive will motivate you to perform the course quickly thereby improving your learning curve.

You receive 1-year unlimited access to all 7 modules. This allows you to perform modules again whenever you want to refresh knowledge for your daily work projects.

A personal digital certificate will be made available to participants based on the following requirement:

  • finish the course within the first month after starting. This incentive will motivate you to perform the course quickly thereby improving your learning curve.
