| Educational objectives | The teaching represents the first course of plants and components of energy systems The main objective of the course is to provide students with the basics for managing energy production in situations of risk and emergency The main knowledge acquired will be Steam turbine systems Description of the elementary cycle. Improvements to the elementary circuit: repeated overheating, thermal regeneration. Gas turbine systems Description of the elementary cycle. Simple cycle improvements: thermal regeneration, Internal combustion engines Introduction to internal combustion engines, thermodynamic cycles, real cycles; expression of the power of an engine; Cogeneration Electric and thermal cogeneration Combined gas-steam cycles: recovery boilers Cogeneration systems with gas turbine, steam turbine, internal combustion engine, combined group. The main skills (i.e. the ability to apply the knowledge acquired) will be: analyze a compression ignition or positive ignition engine cycle in conditions of risk and emergency dimensioning and verifying the main parameters of a steam turbine plant in risk and emergency conditions analyze the functioning of the most common cogeneration systems in conditions of risk and emergency |
| Prerequisites | Knowledge of thermodynamics and fluid motion |
| Teaching methods | The course is organized as follows Introductory classroom lessons (8 hours) Delayed e-learning lessons (27 hours) |
| Other information | attendance is recommended |
| Learning verification modality | The exam includes an oral test. The oral exam consists of a discussion lasting about 30 minutes aimed at ascertaining the level of knowledge and understanding reached by the student on the theoretical and methodological contents indicated in the program (alternative internal combustion engines, turbomachinery, energy systems). the oral test will also allow to verify the student's communication skills with language properties and autonomous organization of the exposition on the same theoretical topics. The test may also consist, as a complement to the high tests, in the discussion of a case study proposed by the teacher, as a project carried out individually or in a group. The discussion will illustrate the problems posed in the assigned case, the possible project alternatives, any regulatory context, the methodological approach adopted, the analysis of the results obtained. The discussion can make use of a written report or about 10 slides and provide for the request for theoretical insights and detailed clarifications by the members of the examination commission. The test as a whole allows you to ascertain both the ability to know and understand, and the ability to apply the skills acquired, both the ability to exhibit, and the ability to learn and develop solutions independently. |

| Contents | The course aims to introduce students to the knowledge of the main psychological and social reactions that characterize emergency contexts. To this end, attention will be given to the operational setting and the main consequences and types of psychosocial intervention in the pre-, during, and post-emergency phases. In addition, the most common reactions to disasters by the families of victims, emergency workers, and the community, in general, will be explored. |

| Educational objectives | The main objective of the course is to provide students with knowledge and skills on the main reactions and difficulties faced by the individual, rescuers, and the community in emergencies. The course objectives are defined as follows concerning the following domains:- Knowledge and understanding skills: to enable the student to attain the fundamental knowledge to understand the main reactions in emergencies;- Application of knowledge: to enable the student to apply this knowledge to recognize situations of potential vulnerability in emergencies;- Autonomy of judgment: the student will be able to integrate the knowledge acquired at a theoretical level with the specificity of concrete cases that he/she may encounter in potential work contexts;- Communication: the student will acquire a specific terminology that will enable him/her to communicate with a specialist (and non-specialist) interlocutors in the sector and/or in an interdisciplinary manner;- Learning skills: the student will develop the competence to study independently and research specialist material in the sector also and through the use of bibliographic research in sector databases. |
| Teaching methods | Lectures (some of them in TD), discussion of emergencies and post-disaster interventions on a mainly national level. |
| Other information | During the course, the student can check the course material and any announcements/notices from the lecturer on UniStudium. |
| Learning verification modality | There is only one final assessment. The objective of the test is to verify the level of knowledge and understanding reached by the student on the theoretical and methodological contents indicated in the program. The assessment includes an oral test. For information on support services for students with disabilities and/or DSA visit http://www.unipg.it/disabilita-e-dsa If the student intends to anticipate the exam a year before the one scheduled in the study plan, it is recommended that he/she attends the cycle of lectures and takes the exam in the first useful call after the lectures have ended, thus respecting the semester in which the course is scheduled. |
| Extended program | 1. Disaster psychology and the rescue workers; 2. Distress and related issues; 3. National systemic review on rescue workers; 4. International systemic review on rescue workers- |
