Teaching language

Portuguese

Intended learning outcomes (Knowledges, skills and competencies to be developed by the students)

It is intended that students consolidate the knowledge acquired throughout the course, from the various disciplines and scientific areas, through the handling and assembly of integrated chains of instrumentation, automation and control systems. Based on a set of equipment available students should develop, design and implement solutions typically used in industrial processes.

Syllabus

Selection of instruments suitable for a particular purpose.
Calibration and testing of instruments.
Design and assembly of a closed chain with pneumatic instrumentation.
Design and assembly of a closed chain based on a programmable controller.

Demonstration of the syllabus coherence with the UC intended learning outcomes

Practical and laboratory classes focused on the use of instruments and equipment used in industry. The main activities to be developed will be those necessary for the commissioning of physical process control systems.

Teaching methodologies

Assessment type: distribution assessment without final exam Assessment Components

Demonstration of the teaching methodologies coherence with the curricular unit's intended learning outcomes

The evaluation of students' knowledge in the discipline is done through Laboratory Works and 2 Tests.
a) Laboratory work
• Laboratory work is done in groups.
• Students will have to do 3 lab work.
• The delivery of the reports is mandatory and will be made no later than one week after the conclusion of the same.
• The laboratory grade is obtained through the arithmetic mean of the notes of each of the 3 papers.
• The minimum grade of laboratory work should be 10 points.
b) Tests
• The tests are performed individually.
• The passing of the Tests implies obtaining an average grade of 10 or higher and the minimum grade in any of the 8-point Tests.
• Access to the special season implies that it has obtained a minimum laboratory classification of 10 values and had a minimum attendance of 70%

Assessment methodologies and evidences

1. The final grade of the course (NF) is obtained by means of the weighted average of the test score (TE = 0.4 * TE1 + 0.6 * TE2) with the laboratory grade (TL) and according to the following expression :
NF = TE x 0.4 + TL x 0.6
2. Final scores higher than 17 must be defended in oral tests.

Attendance system

The frequency and approval in this discipline presupposes that students have basic knowledge about electrotechnology, instrumentation, control and signal processing.
(Omitted issues respect the current legislation and the internal rules and regulations of the management bodies of ESTSetúbal / IPS).
Time of doubt:
Monday- 12:30-13:30
