ENERGY CONVERSION SYSTEMS 

(Teacher: Prof. Paolo Giulio Iora, Prof. Costante Mario Invernizzi and Michele Doninelli)

The aim of the course is to ensure that the student learns and acquires a basic methodology to evaluate the performances of most common conversion energy systems, understands the criteria for a proper choice of components and machines necessary for the realization of energy systems and acquires a good capacity to model typical conversion energy systems.

Integrated course (Teacher: Eng. Elio Gabriele Mazzi): "Heat recovery systems from process and industrial gas"

ENERGY SYSTEMS MODELLING 

(Teacher: Doct. Gioele Di Marcoberardino and Michele Doninelli)

The aim of the course is to provide the basic principles for the characterization and the design of the main components of traditional energy systems. Students will also be able to develop numerical projects using a commercial code (Aspen Plus). 

INNOVATIVE TECHNOLOGIES FOR ENERGY DECARBONIZATION 

(Teachers: Prof. Paolo Giulio Iora and Mattia Baiguini)

Innovative Technologies for Energy Decarbonization provides the engineering knowledge related to the technologies that allow to reduce the carbon footprint in industrial processes and in the production electricity, heat, and cooling, with particular attention to the use of renewable energies and hydrogen as energy carrier. Finally, the aim of the course is to provide the correct communication skills in the technical language adopted in this context.

Integrated course (Teacher: Eng. Elio Gabriele Mazzi): "Nuclear Energy"

TECHNOLOGIES FOR SUSTAINABLE MOBILITY 

(Teacher: Prof. Paolo Giulio Iora and Daniele Beltrami)

The course provides basic knowledge on the principles of operation, the thermodynamic characteristics and technology, the economic implications, and prospects for use of engines and non-traditional fuels currently under study, development, or testing. The course focuses particularly on engines and power trains of electric, hybrid and fuel cell vehicles. Finally, the aim of the course is to provide the correct communication skills in the technical language adopted in this context.

TECHNOLOGIES OF THE RENEWABLE ENERGIES 

(Teacher: Prof. Costante Mario Invernizzi and Mattia Baiguini)

The aim of the course is to ensure that the student learns and acquires the reasons and the concepts underlying the particular characteristics of the renewable energy sources, understands the ways of a proper choice of the devices and of the technical and economic design (albeit preliminary) for the systems of energy conversion and of the production of electricity and heat through the use of renewable energies.
