This online engineering PDH course provides guidance on the basic operating principles of 2-cycle and 4-cycle diesel engines. It explains the fundamentals and theory of operation of engine governors, fuel ejectors, camshafts as well as typical engine protective features.
Today most facilities require some type of prime mover to supply mechanical power for pumping, electrical power generation, operation of heavy equipment, and to act as a backup electrical generator for emergency use during the loss of the normal power source. Although several types of prime movers are available (such as gasoline engines, steam and gas turbines), the diesel engine is the most commonly used. Diesel engines provide a self-reliant energy source that is available in sizes from a few horsepower to 10,000 hp. Relatively speaking, diesel engines are small, inexpensive, powerful, fuel efficient, and extremely reliable if maintained properly.
This 4 PDH online course is applicable to mechanical engineers, plant operators, maintenance personnel, and technical staff who are interested in gaining a better understanding of diesel engine fundamentals.
This PE continuing education course is intended to provide you with the following specific knowledge and skills:
- Learning the different types of diesel engines
- Learning the major components and support systems of a diesel engine
- Understanding the basic diesel cycles (two-stroke and four-stroke)
- Understanding the operation of diesel engine speed and fuel controls
- Understanding the maintenance and protection methods of diesel engines
In this professional engineering CEU course, you need to review Module 1, "Diesel Engine Fundamentals" of the Department of Energy Publication DOE-HDBK-1018/1-93, "Mechanical Science".

This online engineering PDH course presents general piping design calculations and requirements for all piping systems regardless of construction material. Most of these calculations and requirements are provided and regulated by the ASME B31.3 code, respectively.
The liquid process piping manual provides information for the design of liquid process piping systems including all pipe and appurtenances which are used to convey liquids to, from and between pumping, storage and treatment units but which are not integral to any unit.
This 3 PDH online course is applicable to engineers, designers, contractors, building professionals, maintenance personnel, and manufacturers who are interested in gaining a better understanding of general piping design of liquid process piping.
This PE continuing education course is intended to provide you with the following specific knowledge and skills:
- Understanding the properties of construction materials
- Understanding the characteristics of the design pressure
- Learning how to size piping systems
- Understanding the stress analysis of piping systems
- Familiarizing with pipe components such as flanges, gaskets and bolting
- Understanding how pipe components affect the piping design
- Understanding how to properly identify piping
- Understanding the basics of piping supports
- Familiarizing with the different testing and flushing methods for piping systems
In this professional engineering CEU course, you need to review Chapter 3, "General Piping Design" of the "Liquid Process Piping" engineering manual, published by the United States Army of Corps of Engineers (USACE), Publication Number EM 1110-1-4008.
Once you complete your course review, you need to take a multiple-choice quiz consisting of twenty (20) questions to earn 3 PDH credits. The quiz will be based on Chapter 3 of this USACE publication.
Upon successful completion of the quiz, print your Certificate of Completion instantly. (Note: if you are paying by check or money order, you will be able to print it after we receive your payment.) For your convenience, we will also email it to you. Please note that you can log in to your account at any time to access and print your Certificate of Completion.
This online engineering PDH course provides an overview of industrial compressed air systems. It describes the basic components of an industrial compressed air system and characterizes its applications in different industries.
Compressed air is used widely throughout industry and is often considered the "fourth utility" at many facilities. Almost every industrial plant, from a small machine shop to an immense pulp and paper mill, has some type of compressed air system. In many cases, the compressed air system is so vital that the facility cannot operate without it.
This 3 PDH online course is applicable to engineers, designers, contractors, compressed air manufacturers and others seeking an understanding of the basics of industrial compressed air systems.
This PE continuing education course is intended to provide you with the following specific knowledge and skills:
- Learning about the different types of compressors
- Learning about compressor prime movers
- Learning about compressed air controls
- Familiarizing with the various types of accessories used in compressed air systems
- Understanding the uses of compressed air systems
