The subject knowledge on the secondary school level is required and basic knowledge of thermomechanics.
Students have to be able to explain and clarify the following issues:
- Basic thermal processes.
- Thermal cycle of gas turbine.
- Fundamental laws of thermodynamics.
- Thermodynamic properties of gases.

Practical experience with i-s and T-s water and steam diagrams is required.

Point scoring of written and oral examination is held under the rules of FEEC.
During the semester, students pass three control written tests, laboratory tasks and voluntary individual tasks. Requirements to get the credit are to obtain at least 20 points from 40 possible and NONE of the required activities (laboratory tasks) is evaluated with 0 points.
The final exam is evaluated by up to 60 points and is divided into written (arithmetical problems - 30 points) and an oral part (30 points). Necessary requirement to pass the examination is to obtain at least 15 points from the written part and at least 10 points from the oral part.
The content and forms of instruction in the evaluated course are specified by a regulation issued by the lecturer responsible for the course and updated for every academic year.

The aim of the subject is to increase the knowledge of future power engineers about the knowledge of electricity production from primary sources, to show the basic procedures for calculating heat flows of thermal and nuclear power plants and their operating parameters. Part of the course is devoted to basic hydroelectric calculations and operational characteristics of hydropower plants and renewable energy sources.
Graduate of this course is able to:
- Discuss the advantages and disadvantages of energy sources.
- Define and explain the fundamental terms of energy.
- Describe the full technology of thermal power plants (condensing plants, gas plants, heating plants, combined cycle, cogeneration units).
- Perform complex calculations of thermal power plants.
- Explain the principles of nuclear reactions.
- Perform basic calculations of thermal circuits of nuclear power plants and to apply basic physics of reactors.
- Discuss the advantages and disadvantages of different types of nuclear reactors.
- Explain the principle of hydropower.
- Defining the principles of operation of electrical generators.
