Interactive & Video Discount Package - Québec Mechanical 15 PDH

This online engineering PDH interactive presentation provides an overview of thermodynamics and introduces the properties of fluids and how they are affected by various processes. The presentation also explains how energy balances can be performed on facility systems or components and how efficiency can be calculated.

A basic understanding of the thermodynamics is necessary to safely operate and maintain the facility and support systems. The information is presented to provide a foundation for applying engineering concepts to the job. This knowledge will help personnel more fully understand the impact that their actions may have on the safe and reliable operation of facility components and systems.

This 3 PDH online interactive presentation is intended primarily for mechanical and chemical engineers, facility operators, maintenance personnel, and other professionals who are interested in learning more about the fundamentals of thermodynamics.

This online engineering PDH interactive presentation provides guidance on the fundamentals of the fluid power of pumped or compressed fluids which generate force and motion.

Fluid power which includes hydraulics and pneumatics is a term that describes the generation, control, and application of smooth, effective power of pumped or compressed fluids to provide force and motion to mechanisms.

The extensive use of hydraulics and pneumatics to transmit power is due to the fact that properly constructed fluid power systems possess a number of favorable characteristics, namely eliminating the need for complicated systems of gears, cams, and levers, and providing a smooth, flexible, uniform action without vibration, and without being affected by variations of load, at affordable costs of operations.

This 2 PDH online interactive presentation is intended primarily for mechanical and civil engineers who are interested in learning more about fluid power systems, the operation of its components and the general principles which are common to all physical mechanisms.

This online engineering PDH interactive presentation presents the theory and operation of an internal combustion engine and the various terms associated with them.

Engineers and mechanics’ job is to diagnose and correct troubles much easier, which in turn saves time, effort, and money. Thus, they are concerned with conducting various adjustments to vehicles and equipment, repairing and replacing their worn out broken parts, and ensuring that they are serviced properly and inspected regularly. To perform these duties competently, they must fully understand the operation and function of the various components of an internal combustion engine.

This 1 PDH online interactive presentation is intended primarily for mechanical and industrial engineers, designers, manufacturers and anyone interested in gaining a better understanding of the basics of an internal combustion engine.

This online engineering PDH interactive presentation provides an overview of the purpose, construction, and principles of operation of the major types of heat exchangers.

In almost any nuclear, chemical, or mechanical system, heat must be transferred from one place to another or from one fluid to another. Heat exchangers are used to transfer heat from one fluid to another. A basic understanding of the mechanical components of a heat exchanger is important to understanding how they function and operate. Common applications of heat exchangers include boilers, fan coolers, cooling water heat exchangers, and condensers.

This 1 PDH online interactive presentation is applicable to mechanical and chemical engineers, facility operators, maintenance personnel and professionals who are interested in learning more about heat exchangers and their specific applications.

This online engineering PDH interactive presentation provides guidance on the operation of centrifugal and positive displacement pumps.

In general, a pump is a mechanical device that is used to raise the flow of a fluid from one elevation to the other by increasing the pressure of the fluid.  Centrifugal pumps use a centripetal force, which is defined as the action that causes the fluid to move away from its centre of rotation. Whereas positive displacement pumps physically entrap a quantity of liquid at the suction of the pump and push that quantity out the discharge of the pump.

This 1 PDH online interactive presentation is intended primarily to mechanical engineers, plant operators, maintenance personnel, and technical staff who are interested in gaining a better understanding of centrifugal and displacement pump design and operation

This online engineering PDH interactive presentation addresses two aspects of metals: the structures and the properties.

This presentation deals first with the basic structures of metals and how those structures are affected by various processes. In addition, it provides information on the various imperfections and defects that the metal may sustain and how they affect the metal.

Moreover, this presentation provides information on metal properties which are considered when selecting material for engineering design purposes. Each of these properties contains a discussion on how the property is affected and the metal's application.

This 2 PDH online interactive presentation is intended primarily to structural and mechanical engineers, construction and design personnel, technical staff and facility operators who are interested in gaining a better understanding of the structures and properties of metals.

This online engineering PDH interactive presentation provides a brief outline on the chemical interaction taking place during the corrosion process between the environment and the corroding metal. It also describes preventive measures to minimize or control the corrosion process.

Uncontrolled corrosion can cause many serious problems. Corrosion occurs continuously, and every metal in every facility is subject to some type of corrosion. Even though corrosion cannot be eliminated, it can be controlled.

Mitigating corrosion is important from both an operational and cost standpoint. Ignoring corrosion can shorten structure life, increase equipment or system out-of-service time, and increase maintenance. This presentation provides field personnel the principles they need for a clearer understanding of basic corrosion processes and methods to deal with them. It further describes some simple situations in which they might design and install a cathodic protection system using site forces. The presentation also describes general cathodic protection monitoring procedures.

This 4 PDH online interactive presentation is applicable to chemical and environmental engineers, design and construction personnel, technical staff and facility operators who are interested in gaining a better understanding of the theory of corrosion.
