2. Pre-Requisites
Students are expected to have adequate knowledge in the concepts taught in Thermodynamics and Heat Transfer
3. Justification in the curriculum, relation to other subjects and to the profession
Life today is not conceived without Refrigeration and/or Air Conditioning systems at any level of human use, i.e., in the residential, industrial (read industry and transport) and tertiary sectors. At the same time, these systems require of their conceptual knowledge, operation, and optimization with the objective to be used efficiently due to the energy consumption involved in their use and the consequent emission of pollutants. This course requires of previous academic training in Thermodynamics and Heat Transfer. To a lesser extent, but it also has related to energy technology. All these subjects serve as a knowledge base to address Refrigeration and HVAC projects.

8. Evaluation criteria and Grading System
| Evaluation System | Continuous assessment | Non-continuous evaluation * | Description |
| Theoretical papers assessment | 50.00% | 0.00% | It consists of the resolution of different design and/or calculation problems throughout the subject, which can be exposed and explained. It may require the completion of a written test for the verification of the personal resolution of the works. It eliminates the corresponding part in the final test. It is necessary to pass this part of the subject |
| Final test | 30.00% | 80.00% | It consists of different parts of theory and problems. |
| Laboratory sessions | 10.00% | 10.00% | At the end of each practice session a protocol of the practice will be fulfilled. It is necessary to pass this part of the subject |
| Practicum and practical activities reports assessment | 10.00% | 10.00% | At the end of each practice session, a memory of the practice will be carried out, which will be delivered within the time period specified.It is necessary to pass this part of the subject |
| Total: | 100.00% | 100.00% |
According to art. 4 of the UCLM Student Evaluation Regulations, it must be provided to students who cannot regularly attend face-to-face training activities the passing of the subject, having the right (art. 12.2) to be globally graded, in 2 annual calls per subject , an ordinary and an extraordinary one (evaluating 100% of the competences).
Evaluation criteria for the final exam:
-
Continuous assessment:Those students who do not accomplish the laboratory practices (sessions and/or reports) will have to perform a recovery exam of this part of the subject, with practical reports and laboratory sessions. The final test consists of different parts of theory. Students who do not accomplish the theoretical papers assessment will be evaluated of the corresponding part in this final exam.
No marks for further calls are preserved -
Non-continuous evaluation:Those students who do not accomplish the laboratory practices (sessions and/or reports) will have to perform a recovery exam of this part of the subject, with practical reports and laboratory sessions. The final test consists of different parts of theory and problems.
No marks for further calls are preserved
Specifications for the resit/retake exam:
