Energy Systems

Cohort: Winter Term 2015

Updated: 20th February 2017

Program description

Content

The research-oriented master’s study program in Energy Systems follows on from the bachelor’s in mechanical engineering, specializing in energy systems. The program deals in greater depth with the math, scientific and engineering contents of the bachelor’s degree course and teaches further methods to solve complex energy systems problems systematically and scientifically.

As a part of this master’s program students must opt to specialize in either energy systems or marine engineering. A ship’s engine room is a complex floating energy plant. The TUHH is the only German university to offer a study program in energy systems that includes marine engineering.

The content of the study program consists of basic and method-oriented knowledge about the physical description of classical energy systems, regenerative energy systems, and marine engineering.



Career prospects

The study program covers a wide range of math and physics basics and prepares students for senior roles in industry and science in selected energy systems and/or marine engineering modules.

The program’s wide-ranging scope facilitates challenging scientific work in very different areas of energy systems and marine engineering and also in general mechanical engineering, automotive and aviation engineering.



Learning target

The aim of the master’s program in Energy Systems is to familiarize students with the different energy conversion, distribution, and application technologies. It must be borne in mind that Energy Systems is a cross-sectional subject that touches upon practically all areas of technology. Leading to a M.Sc., the program is therefore designed to teach the skills required to recognize relationships in complex systems.

Graduates of the master’s program in Energy Systems are able to apply the specialized knowledge that they have acquired to complex energy systems problems. They can work their way independently into new issues. They can analyze, abstract, and model processes using scientific methods and can also document them. They can assess data and results and develop from them strategies for devising innovative solutions. They are capable of discussing problems as members of a team and, if need be, of optimizing them.



Program structure

The structure of the master’s program in Energy Systems consists of the core qualification, a specialization (Energy Systems or Marine Engineering), and the thesis.

As a part of the core qualification students must study, along with the compulsory modules Operation and Management and Non-technical Supplementary Modules, the two modules Energy Systems Lab and Energy Systems Project Work. In addition, they can choose three from a range of 14 modules that are on offer.

As a part of the Energy Systems specialization, three compulsory modules (Turbomachines, Thermal Engineering, Combined Heat & Power and Combustion Technology) and four mandatory elective modules (out of 11) must be studied. The mandatory electives include an open module, Selected Energy Systems Topics, from which courses counting for 6 credits out of 39 on offer can be chosen.

As a part of the Marine Engineering specialization, students must take two compulsory modules (Energy Systems on Board Ships, Marine Engines) and five mandatory electives (out of 5 on offer). The mandatory electives include an open module, Selected Marine Engineering Topics, from which courses counting for 12 credits out of 22 on offer can be chosen.

In their master’s thesis students work independently on research-oriented problems, structuring the task into different sub-aspects and apply systematically the specialized competences they have acquired in the course of the study program. 

The contents of the compulsory modules that form a part of the core qualification and those of the modules that form a part of the specializations are, together with the tasks set for the master’s thesis, closely connected to the research areas at the university departments with an energy systems orientation.


Core qualification

In-depth physics, math, and engineering contents of energy systems and marine engineering are taught in the core qualification area. In addition, research- and application-oriented experiments are undertaken in the Energy Systems Lab compulsory module and research-oriented problems are dealt with in the Energy Systems Project Work module. 

Students are able to model and to analyze energy systems in terms of physics and mathematics. Furthermore, in the Energy Systems Lab module they are taught competences relating to the critical analysis and evaluation of measurement data and experimental results. In the Project Work module they are encouraged to work independently on problems, on the structuring of solution approaches, and on their written documentation. The Energy Systems Lab works in small groups and the Project Work can be undertaken as group work, thereby strengthening teamwork skills.

Professional Competence
Knowledge

The Non-technical Elective Study Area

imparts skills that, in view of the TUHH’s training profile, professional engineering studies require but are not able to cover fully. Self-reliance, self-management, collaboration and professional and personnel management competences. The department implements these training objectives in its teaching architecture, in its teaching and learning arrangements, in teaching areas and by means of teaching offerings in which students can qualify by opting for specific competences and a competence level at the Bachelor’s or Master’s level. The teaching offerings are pooled in two different catalogues for nontechnical complementary courses.

The Learning Architecture

consists of a cross-disciplinarily study offering. The centrally designed teaching offering ensures that courses in the “non-technical department” follow the specific profiling of TUHH degree courses.

The learning architecture demands and trains independent educational planning as regards the individual development of competences. It also provides orientation knowledge in the form of “profiles”.

The subjects that can be studied in parallel throughout the student’s entire study program - if need be, it can be studied in one to two semesters. In view of the adaptation problems that individuals commonly face in their first semesters after making the transition from school to university and in order to encourage individually planned semesters abroad, there is no obligation to study these subjects in one or two specific semesters during the course of studies.

Teaching and Learning Arrangements

provide for students, separated into B.Sc. and M.Sc., to learn with and from each other across semesters. The challenge of dealing with interdisciplinarity and a variety of stages of learning in courses are part of the learning architecture and are deliberately encouraged in specific courses.

Fields of Teaching

are based on research findings from the academic disciplines cultural studies, social studies, arts, historical studies, communication studies and sustainability research, and from engineering didactics. In addition, from the winter semester 2014/15 students on all Bachelor’s courses will have the opportunity to learn about business management and start-ups in a goal-oriented way.

The fields of teaching are augmented by soft skills offers and a foreign language offer. Here, the focus is on encouraging goal-oriented communication skills, e.g. the skills required by outgoing engineers in international and intercultural situations.

The Competence Level

of the courses offered in this area is different as regards the basic training objective in the Bachelor’s and Master’s fields. These differences are reflected in the practical examples used, in content topics that refer to different professional application contexts, and in the higher scientific and theoretical level of abstraction in the B.Sc.

This is also reflected in the different quality of soft skills, which relate to the different team positions and different group leadership functions of Bachelor’s and Master’s graduates in their future working life.

Specialized Competence (Knowledge)

Students can

  • explain specialized areas in context of the relevant non-technical disciplines,
  • outline basic theories, categories, terminology, models, concepts or artistic techniques in the disciplines represented in the learning area,
  • different specialist disciplines relate to their own discipline and differentiate it as well as make connections, 
  • sketch the basic outlines of how scientific disciplines, paradigms, models, instruments, methods and forms of representation in the specialized sciences are subject to individual and socio-cultural interpretation and historicity,
  • Can communicate in a foreign language in a manner appropriate to the subject.
Skills

Professional Competence (Skills)

In selected sub-areas students can

  • apply basic and specific methods of the said scientific disciplines,
  • aquestion a specific technical phenomena, models, theories from the viewpoint of another, aforementioned specialist discipline,
  • to handle simple and advanced questions in aforementioned scientific disciplines in a sucsessful manner,
  • justify their decisions on forms of organization and application in practical questions in contexts that go beyond the technical relationship to the subject.



Personal Competence
Social Competence

Personal Competences (Social Skills)

Students will be able

  • to learn to collaborate in different manner,
  • to present and analyze problems in the abovementioned fields in a partner or group situation in a manner appropriate to the addressees,
  • to express themselves competently, in a culturally appropriate and gender-sensitive manner in the language of the country (as far as this study-focus would be chosen), 
  • to explain nontechnical items to auditorium with technical background knowledge.





Autonomy

Personal Competences (Self-reliance)

Students are able in selected areas

  • to reflect on their own profession and professionalism in the context of real-life fields of application
  • to organize themselves and their own learning processes      
  • to reflect and decide questions in front of a broad education background
  • to communicate a nontechnical item in a competent way in writen form or verbaly
  • to organize themselves as an entrepreneurial subject country (as far as this study-focus would be chosen)

Specialization Energy Systems

The Energy Systems specialization covers the mechanical engineering-oriented area of energy systems. Attention is paid to covering examples from the entire energy chain as far as possible, from small energy conversion units (Thermal Engineering) to large-scale facilities (Steam Generators). The modules offered cover both classical (Turbomachines) and regenerative energy systems (Wind Farms). A number of modules deal with energy systems in the mobile sector, such as for cars, airplanes and ships (Air Conditioning). The focus is on teaching the system concept because only by considering a system as a whole can useful energy be provided efficiently by means of conversion from conventional and renewable energy sources.

Students learn to understand complex energy systems, to describe them physically, and to model them mathematically. They are able to analyze and assess complex energy systems issues in the context of current energy policy. These skills can be put to practical use in all areas of engineering.

Admission Requirements None
Recommended Previous Knowledge

Knowledge in Thermodynamics incl. Combustion Calculations, Heat Transfer and Fluid Mechanics


Educational Objectives After taking part successfully, students have reached the following learning results
Professional Competence
Knowledge

The students outline the thermodynamic and chemical fundamentals of combustion processes. From the knowledge of the characteristics and reaction kinetics of various fuels they can describe the behaviour of premixed flames and non-premixed flames, in order to describe the fundamentals of furnace design in gas-, oil- and coal combustion plant. The students are furthermore able to describe the formation of NOx and the primary NOx reduction measures and evaluate the impact of regulations and allowable limit levels.

The students present the layout, design and operation of Combined Heat and Power plants and are in a position to compare with each other district heating plants with back-pressure steam turbine or condensing turbine with pressure-controlled extraction tapping, CHP plants with gas turbine or with combined steam and gas turbine, and district heating plants with motor engine. They can explain and analyse aspects of combined heat, power and cooling (CCHP) and describe the layout of the key components needed. Through this specialised knowledge they are able to evaluate the economical and ecological significance of district CHP plants, as well as their economics.


Skills

Using thermodynamic calculations and considering the reaction kinetics the students will be able to determine interdisciplinary correlations between thermodynamic and chemical processes during combustion. This then enables quantitative analysis of the combustion of gaseous, liquid and solid fuels and determination of the quantities and concentrations of the exhaust gases. In this module the first step toward the utilisation of an energy source (combustion) to provide usable energy (electricity and heat) is taught. An understanding of both procedures enables the students to do holistic considerations of energy utilisation. Examples taken from the praxis, such as the energy supply within the TUHH and the district heating network of Hamburg will be used, to highlight the potential from electricity generation plants with simultaneous heat extraction.

Within the framework of the exercises the students will first learn to calculate the energetic and mass balances of combustion processes. Moreover the students will gain a deeper understanding of the combustion processes by the calculation of reaction kinetics and fundamentals of burner design. In order to perform further analyses they will familiarise themselves to the specialised software suite EBSILON ProfessionalTM. With this tool small and close to reality tasks are solved on the PC, to highlight aspects of the design and balancing of heating plant cycles. In addition CHP will also be considered in its economic and social contexts.


Personal Competence
Social Competence

Especially during the exercises the focus is on communication with the teaching person. By this the students are animated to reflect on their existing knowledge and to ask specific questions for improving their knowledge level.



Autonomy

The students assisted by the tutors will be able to develop simulation models independently and run scenario analyses as well as estimating calculations. In this manner the theoretical and practical knowledge from the lecture is consolidated and the potential effects from different process arrangements and boundary conditions are highlighted.

Combined Heat and Power and Combustion Technology (L0220) Recitation Section (large) 1 1
Module Responsible Prof. Alfons Kather
Admission Requirements None
Recommended Previous Knowledge

Knowledge in Thermodynamics incl. Combustion Calculations, Heat Transfer and Fluid Mechanics


Educational Objectives After taking part successfully, students have reached the following learning results
Professional Competence
Knowledge

The students outline the thermodynamic and chemical fundamentals of combustion processes. From the knowledge of the characteristics and reaction kinetics of various fuels they can describe the behaviour of premixed flames and non-premixed flames, in order to describe the fundamentals of furnace design in gas-, oil- and coal combustion plant. The students are furthermore able to describe the formation of NOx and the primary NOx reduction measures and evaluate the impact of regulations and allowable limit levels.

The students present the layout, design and operation of Combined Heat and Power plants and are in a position to compare with each other district heating plants with back-pressure steam turbine or condensing turbine with pressure-controlled extraction tapping, CHP plants with gas turbine or with combined steam and gas turbine, and district heating plants with motor engine. They can explain and analyse aspects of combined heat, power and cooling (CCHP) and describe the layout of the key components needed. Through this specialised knowledge they are able to evaluate the economical and ecological significance of district CHP plants, as well as their economics.


Skills

Using thermodynamic calculations and considering the reaction kinetics the students will be able to determine interdisciplinary correlations between thermodynamic and chemical processes during combustion. This then enables quantitative analysis of the combustion of gaseous, liquid and solid fuels and determination of the quantities and concentrations of the exhaust gases. In this module the first step toward the utilisation of an energy source (combustion) to provide usable energy (electricity and heat) is taught. An understanding of both procedures enables the students to do holistic considerations of energy utilisation. Examples taken from the praxis, such as the energy supply within the TUHH and the district heating network of Hamburg will be used, to highlight the potential from electricity generation plants with simultaneous heat extraction.

Within the framework of the exercises the students will first learn to calculate the energetic and mass balances of combustion processes. Moreover the students will gain a deeper understanding of the combustion processes by the calculation of reaction kinetics and fundamentals of burner design. In order to perform further analyses they will familiarise themselves to the specialised software suite EBSILON ProfessionalTM. With this tool small and close to reality tasks are solved on the PC, to highlight aspects of the design and balancing of heating plant cycles. In addition CHP will also be considered in its economic and social contexts.


Personal Competence
Social Competence

Especially during the exercises the focus is on communication with the teaching person. By this the students are animated to reflect on their existing knowledge and to ask specific questions for improving their knowledge level.



Autonomy

The students assisted by the tutors will be able to develop simulation models independently and run scenario analyses as well as estimating calculations. In this manner the theoretical and practical knowledge from the lecture is consolidated and the potential effects from different process arrangements and boundary conditions are highlighted.
