This online engineering course provides necessary information to understand the principles and theory of refrigeration, the components of mechanical refrigeration systems, and the types of refrigerants and associated equipment. This course also discusses the methods used for installing, maintaining, and repairing refrigeration equipment, including domestic refrigerators and freezers.
Refrigeration is the process of removing heat from an area or a substance. It is usually done by an artificial means of lowering the temperature, such as by the use of ice or mechanical refrigeration, which is a mechanical system or apparatus, designed and constructed to transfer heat from one substance to another.

This online engineering course presents the operational principles and basic mechanisms of the internal combustion engine.
The power of an internal combustion engine comes from burning a mixture of fuel and air in a small, enclosed space. When this mixture burns, it expands significantly; building pressure that pushes the piston down, in turn rotating the crankshaft. Eventually, this motion is transferred through the transmission and out to the drive wheels to move the vehicle.
The automobile is a familiar object to all of us. The engine that moves it is one of the most fascinating and talked about of all the complex machines we use today. This machine is what we call the internal combustion engine.
This 3 PDH online course is intended for mechanical and industrial engineers, designers, manufacturers and anyone interested in gaining a better understanding of the basics of an internal combustion engine.
This PE continuing education course is intended to provide you with the following specific knowledge and skills:
- Understanding the principles of operation, the different classifications, the measurements and performance standards of an internal combustion engine
- Identifying the series of events /cycles in a gasoline engine
- Identifying the series of events /cycles in a diesel engine
- Understanding the differences between a four-stroke cycle engine and a two-stroke cycle engine
- Recognizing the differences in the types, cylinder arrangements, and valve arrangements of internal combustion engines
- Identifying the terms, engine measurements, and performance standards of an internal combustion engine

This online engieering PDH course provides instruction in engineering ethics through a case study of the Space Shuttle Challenger disaster. The minimum technical details needed to understand the physical cause of the Shuttle failure are presented. The disaster itself is chronicled through NASA photographs. Next the decision-making process, especially the discussions occurring during the teleconference held on the evening before the launch, is described. Direct quotations from engineers interviewed after the disaster are used to illustrate the ambiguities of the data and the pressures that the decision-makers faced in the months and hours preceding the launch. The course culminates in an extended treatment of six ethical issues raised by Challenger.
This 3 PDH online course is intended for all engineers who are interested in gaining a better understanding about the ethical issues that lead to the Challenger disaster and how they could have been avoided.
This PE continuing education course is intended to provide you with the following specific knowledge and skills:
- Common errors to avoid in studying the history of an engineering failure: the retrospective fallacy and the myth of perfect engineering practice
- Shuttle hardware involved in the disaster
- Decisions made in the period preceding the launch
- Ethical issue: NASA giving first priority to public safety over other concerns
- Ethical issue: the contractor giving first priority to public safety over other concerns
- Ethical issue: whistle blowing
- Ethical issue: informed consent
- Ethical issue: ownership of company records
- Ethical issue: how the public perceives that an engineering decision involves an ethical violation
In this professional engineering CEU course, you need to review the course document titled, "Engineering Ethics Case Study: The Challenger Disaster".

This online engineering PDH course discusses the six simple machines: the lever, the block, the wheel and axle, the inclined plane, the screw and the gear. When you familiarize with the principles of these simple machines, you can readily understand the operation of complex machines.
A machine is any device that helps you to do work. It may help by changing the amount of force or the speed of action. Machines may also be used to change the direction of a force or in other cases transform energy; for example, a generator transforms mechanical energy into electrical energy. Complex machines are basically combinations of two or more simple machines.
This 3 PDH online course is applicable to engineers, designers, manufacturers and anyone interested to gain an understanding of basic machine operation.
