Course Objectives (课程目标):
1) To provide theoretical knowledge on dust in any surface and underground industrial engineering, including: definition; healthy considerations; explosion characteristics, etc.
2) To review the historical and engineering basis of dust protection codes and standards and current practices applicable to these issues.
3) To provide a scenario-based engineering framework for evaluating industrial dust and explosion hazards and determining appropriate protection measures.
4) To apply these engineering principles to generic industrial dust protection issues such as water spray, surfactant, seal, and optimized separation (plant layout).
本门课程,课堂周测试占75%、课后论文作业占25%,按百分制计分,60分至85分为合格、85分以上至100分为优秀。
详细说明如下:
1. 测验成绩:考察重要知识点的掌握:随机测验仅仅是当堂或是前面讲过的知识点,考核方式很简单,每章出具10~20道题目,包括单选、多选、判断及填空题型。该部分占总成绩的75%。
2. 课程作业:本课程共有11章内容,因此安排11次。作业主要为论述题,考察学生对所授内容的理解。该部分占总成绩的25%。
3. 本门课程安排了诸多讨论,根据学生的参与程度及反馈程度,适当增加附加分。
4. 课程测验是全英文出题,原则上要求学生使用英文进行作答。
