• Water in Municipal Services TX00BR24-3002 28.08.2017-17.12.2017  5 credits  (TXE15S1) +-
  Learning outcomes of the course

  After completing the course student knows how to plan with suitable design criteria and design water distribution networks as well as sewage collection and storm water drain networks. Student has learned the basic concept as well as selection of critical criteria and working principle used in long term planning of piping networks serving municipal needs.

  Course contents

  The content of the course includes the fundamentals of both industrial and municipal distribution and collection techniques. This is gives the student the understanding of the design process in connection to distribution and collection network hydraulics, mass balances and process and instrumentation solutions. The network stages such as intermediate pumping – storage, population, and conservation of the quality of water is made familiar to the student. Also remediation techniques of water distribution networks with alternative methods are highlighted.

  Assessment criteria

  Satisfactory

  To define or describe the subject matter related to the concepts and phenomena qualitatively and calculate the associated basic quantitative comparisons and calculations

  Good

  The student is able to apply, calculate, change and choose the concepts related to the matter and phenomena qualitatively and calculate the basic quantitative calculations as well as to complete and produce the necessary information for the calculations.

  Excellent

  The students is able to categorize, collect, combine and generalize the concepts related to the matter and phenomena qualitatively and calculate the basic quantitative calculations as well as derive and rearrange given basic information.

• Water management and sustainable development and climate change TX00BR92-3003 15.01.2018-11.03.2018  5 credits  (TXE15S1) +-
  Learning outcomes of the course

  The aim of the course is to provide a broad understanding of climate change on as well as sustainability of water management. After the course the student understand principles of sustainable water management including surface and groundwater resources. Learn about the topics; cliamte change monitoring and its effects on hydrologic cycle and its components, distribution of earth’s water resources, distribution of fresh water on earth, rainfall distribution and intensity. The student knows problems of low flows, storm flooding and their mitigation using reservoirs; uncertainties in water resources management.

  Course contents

  Climate change influence on surface and groundwater resources, concepts for planning water resources, hydrologic cycle, irrigation, climate change and sustainable systems, dams, extrem weather condition for management of water resources, drought and flood management. Knowledge on water retention and flow in soils, hydropower, and agricultural use as well as basic knowlegde about dams.
