General description Nesta asignatura desenrólanse conceptos básicos para a comprensión da maior parte dos procesos ligados á enerxía nunha instalación, tanto a bordo dun buque como en terra.
A modo de exemplo, permite coñecer, analizar e optimizar o funcionamento dun motor de combustión interna, dunha caldeira ou dunha turbina.
Sin o coñecemento dos principios termodinámicos resulta moi difícil a comprensión de numerosas asignaturas do plano de estudos, entre as que se encontran, Turbinas de vapor e gas, Motores de combustión interna, Sistemas auxiliares do buque, Xeneradores de vapor e Transferencia de Calor, Técnicas de frío, etc.
Para cursar a asignatura é conveniente ter coñecementos previos de Física e Matemáticas.

Methodologies
Methodologies Description
Introductory activities There will be a presentation of the course, emphasizing the importance of this matter as a basis for learning other subjects in the Degree and for professional activities in the field of Marine Engineering.
The standards of teaching, qualification and most important bibliographical sources will be set.
Guest lecture / keynote speech There will be a detailed explanation of the contents of the material, distributed across topics. The student will have a typed copy of the subject matter in each keynote session. Students are encouraged to participate in class, through comments linking the theoretical with real life experiences.
Problem solving Problems will be solved for each item proposed, allowing the application of mathematical models appropriate to each case, including managing tables, applying the most appropriate assumptions, the theoretical relation developed in lectures and relation with professional practice
Collaborative learning Problem solving in groups, with the possibility of exposing results.
Supervised projects Problems more difficult than those solved in class or issues of special relevance.
Document analysis By means using bibliographical sources of different types, the student will get used to finding information in order to deepen or focus learning from other points of view that are not exclusively those from the professor. It is like a training to the future needs of students in their professional development.
Objective test There will be a midterm exam so that students become familiar with the type of issues raised in the written tests. It will consist of a theoretical and practical part, so that both computed for 50% of the grade. Regular and special examinations shall be governed by the same format.

Description
The personalized attention related with the methodologies that contemplate it, aims to encourage maximum interaction with students, in order to optimize their effort and improve their learning.
Through this interaction, together with the other evaluation processes, the degree of learning of the subject competences will be determined, allowing personalized attention to those students who most need it through individualized tutoring, whose convocation will be held in with involved students.
Regardless of the face-to-face tutoring programmed by the teacher, the student can go to tutoring, as many times as he wants, and at a time compatible with teaching, research and management professor activities.
In accordance with the "norma que regula o réxime de dedicación ao estudo dos estudantes de grao na UDC" (Art.3.b e 4.5) and ""normas de avaliación, revisión e reclamación das cualificacións dos estudos de grao e mestrado universitario” (Art. 3 e 8b), students with part-time recognition and academic exemption from attendance exemption may participate in a personalized and flexible system of mentoring and evaluation tutorials in order to determine the degree of competency learning achieved. Regarding with this matter, the tutorials will serve to carry out those activities included within the methodology of objective tests and problems solution

Assessment comments

The official tests of the first
opportunity, will included the different evaluation methodologies and must be
completed by those students who have not passed the continuous evaluation in
its entirety. This test will be designed in such a way that the student can
examine the problem solving methodologies and objective test, where they have
not reached 30% of the total grade.

Students obliged to attend the official
"second chance" tests will keep the grade achieved in all
methodologies, with the exception of the one obtained in the objective tests of
the 1st opportunity, which will be replaced by that of the 2nd. In the same
way, you will only be eligible for honors if the maximum number of these for
the corresponding course is not covered in its entirety at the "first
opportunity".

For students with recognition of part-time
dedication and academic exemption from attendance, the grade obtained in the
activities associated with the personalized tutoring system will correspond to
the evaluation of the problem-solving methodology and objective tests, with a
weighting of 30 and 70%, respectively.

Fraudulent performance of the tests or evaluation activities, once verified, will directly imply a failing grade "0" in the subject and in the corresponding call, besides invalidating any grade obtained in either evaluation activity for the extraordinary call.

The evaluation system meets the competency
evaluation criteria set out in Column 4 of the following Tables of the STCW
Convention, modified by Manila 2010:

1.- Table A-III / 1 of Specification of
the minimum standards of competence applicable to officers in charge of the
watch in a permanently manned engine-room and those appointed to serve in an
unmanned engine-room.

Function: Naval machinery, at the
operational levelCompetencies:

-1.1 Carry out a safe machinery watch

-1.2 Operate the main and auxiliary
machinery and the corresponding control systems.
