MAIKT-ISL Digital Learning Design Course description

Through this course, the student will acquire basic knowledge about indoor climate in buildings. They must be able to assess the indoor climate quality in a building and propose measures to achieve a good indoor climate. They will also learn principles for measurement theory, through lectures and practical measurement of indoor climate parameters, as well as measurement in ventilation systems.

None beyond admission requirements, but an advantage of basic knowledge in chemistry and physics

After completing this course, the student has the following learning outcomes, defined as knowledge, skills and general competence:

Knowledge

The student can

• basic measurement theory

• account for surveys

• basic reaction kinetics and mass balances

• give an account of the authorities' requirements, regulations, rules and industry standards for indoor climate

• describe the thermal, atmospheric, acoustic, actinic, and mechanical environment in indoor climates

• describe the person's optimal state of comfort in terms of temperature, metabolism and clothing in a building

• understand the relationship between humid air and temperature and the importance of humid air in indoor climates

• give an account of indoor climate conditions that affect the growth of microorganisms

• understand the background for choosing environmentally friendly building materials

• explain conditions regarding cleaning during construction and operation

• account for the risk of legionella growth in hot water systems and cooling towers

• explain the connection between indoor climate and disease and health

• understand how a wet room should be designed

;

Skills

The student can

• assess uncertainty in all types of measurements of indoor climate parameters and set up an uncertainty budget

• handle surveys on indoor climate using the "Ear Brochure Form" and interpret the results.

• calculate required air volumes based on mass balances and reaction kinetics

• perform measurements of indoor climate parameters such as air exchange, air quality, thermal, acoustic and actinic conditions including radon and compare them with government requirements

• assess the use of materials with regard to indoor climate quality and environmental impact

• perform a microbiological analysis of a building, especially with regard to molds

• use Mollier diagram to calculate dew point and other thermodynamic data for humid air

• use software for indoor climate simulations

• design for optimal maintenance to avoid Legionella growth in hot water systems and cooling towers

• design wet rooms

;

General competence

The student can

• plan and perform indoor climate analyzes

• evaluate and present the results of an indoor climate survey in writing and orally

Retten til å avlegge eksamen forutsetter godkjente arbeidskrav. Se felles regler for arbeidskrav i programplanen.

Det er et arbeidskrav for hvert av de fem temaene. Studentene skal arbeide med litteratur knyttet til hvert tema.

1. Muntlig presentasjon i gruppe, to til fire studenter, varighet 5-10 minutter.

1. Muntlig presentasjon i gruppe, to til fire studenter, 5-10 minutter.

1. Skriftlig notat i gruppe, to til fire studenter, omfang 500 ord +/- 10 prosent.

1. Skriftlig notat i gruppe, to til fire studenter, 500 ord +/- 10 prosent.

Gruppene skal etter gitte kriterier kommentere hverandres presentasjoner og fagnotater. Formålet med arbeidskravene er å hjelpe studentene med å fordype seg i pensum og at studentene skal øve på skriftlig og muntlig akademisk kommunikasjon.

Obligatorisk tilstedeværelse

Det er obligatorisk frammøte ved de to fysiske samlingene. Hensikten med de fysiske samlingene er at de kan bidra til et kollektivt fagmiljø av studenter og lærere. Studentene kan i tillegg få praktisk erfaring med teknologi.

Emnet avsluttes med en individuell muntlig eksamen med varighet 20 minutter.

Ny/utsatt eksamen gjennomføres på samme måte som ordinær eksamen.

Ved eksamen benyttes bokstavkarakterer med A som beste og E som dårligste karakter. Ved ikke bestått benyttes karakteren F.

The following work requirements are mandatory and must be approved to sit for the exam:

• 5 laboratory assignments in a group

• Project report

The purpose of the work requirement is to provide students with an academic basis for written examinations.
