• Understand the theory of combustion and be able to calculate the amount of combustion air and the composition and amount of exhaust gases
• Understand the operating principles of the basic types of power stations
• Be able to calculate characteristic sizes of individual sections (eg steam generators, turbines, etc.) of power stations
• Be able to calculate overall characteristic sizes of power stations (eg. efficiency, consumption)
