| A ‘Ricardo and McLaren’ workshop is designed for students looking to familiarize themselves with Diesel and gasoline engines Aim: to develop students’ understanding of the principles, and operating systems of internal combustion engines Internal Combustion Engines – Basic Real reciprocating-piston and gas turbine engines will be disassembled and the function of principle parts explained. New trends in engine technology will be discussed. Basic course is taught by an experienced “Ricardo” engineer and senior engine build technician with a mixture of classroom and practical sessions. This 1-day basic engines course is perfect for anyone looking to gain a basic understanding of how internal combustion engines work. The topics covered in this basic engine course are as follows: · An introduction to the operation, main systems and components of light duty internal combustion engines: · Introduction · Combustion Engines · Internal Combustion Engine Cycles · Gasoline vs. Diesel · Engine Systems and Components · The Engine Rebuilt · Cost and Weight · A workshop session to become familiar with engine components and their applications through the disassembly of a gasoline engine. The “ Ricardo and McLaren” engineers will provide expert commentary and answer your questions during this practical sessions where you will be able to handle engine components as the engine is dismantled. Key Diesel components will also be available for comparison and commentary. · Important: Safety shoes and suitable clothing are recommended to be worn for the practical session and not provided by “Ricardo”. Safety glasses and gloves are provided by Ricardo on the day. Includes a site tour of “Ricardo and McLaren” engine build facility. Internal Combustion Engines – Advanced Looking to extend your knowledge further? Why not attend our other technical 2-day training courses at advanced level? The topics covered in this basic engine course are as follows: · Turbocharging & Boosting Systems · Diesel & Gasoline Engine Calibration · Internal Combustion Engines – Advanced · Automotive Transmissions – Advanced · Automated Transmissions · NVH (Noise, Vibration & Harshness) · Hybrid & Electric Vehicles (1-st day) · Hybrid & Electric Vehicles (2-nd day) |
