Mechanical Engineer career episode

The Engineers Australia career episode sample should follow the guidelines with a fair number of words. The report displays the problems and challenges you face while operating the project and the solution applied.

Mechanical Engineer Career Episode Report.

Project Name: “Design of The Latent Heat Thermal Storage (LHS) Unit”
In the first career episode, the author describes the project he did when he was pursuing his Bachelor of Engineering (B.E) in Mechanical Engineering. This career episode is based on his graduation project named; the design of the Latent heat thermal storage (LHTS) unit. During the time, the responsibilities of the author were to:

• Develop the 3D CAD Model of the LHTS unit.
• Perform initial sizing calculation.
• Purchase PCM materials and Raw materials such as Copper tubes, Aluminum sheets with different thicknesses for shell
• Perform charging and discharging experiments and noted data using a Datalogger

Mechanical Engineer Career Episode Report.

Project Name: Determination of a relative equation to find the wettability of the material through water contact angle.
In the second Career Episode, the author explains the engineering skills he used in the project he carried out in the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organization (CSIRO) for the degree in Masters of Engineering Science (Advanced Manufacturing Technology). His duties and responsibilities in the project “Determination of a relative equation to find wettability of the material through water contact angle” were:

• To study the parameters affecting the contact angle and its wettability on various materials like glass, etc.
• To study various methodologies in measuring the contact angle.
• To select the material to be used and the fluid used for the testing process.
• To carry out the measurement process for determining the surface area of the droplet.
• To create a trend line of the smooth curve from which the polynomial equation was derived

Project Name: CP system based upon Optimizing of Anodes order quantity
In the third career episode sample for Engineers Australia, the author describes the project titled “CP system based upon Optimizing of Anodes order quantity”. He did this project while working at L&T Hydrocarbons. Some of his roles and responsibilities in this project were:

• To arrive at optimum net weight to calculate the most effective number of anodes that can be used, which can be used in multiple projects and minimize the cost of the project
• To carry out a literature review for getting knowledge on various factors related to the project and for understanding the use of anode protecting the jacket structures submerged from corrosion.
• To design the sacrificial anode length and mass based on the ONGC client specifications and the anode placement over the jacket structure for uniform distribution of cathodic protection to span for 25 years project lifecycle well head offshore platform EPC project.
• To perform calculations for the project regarding the number of anodes required for optimization.
• To analyze the results that were obtained from the specific calculation made.
• To perform experiments regarding the model for numerical simulation and the boundary conditions.
• To verify the results obtained from the simulation and apply them for optimizing the anode quantity.

Continuing Professional Development (CPD) Sample for CDR

The CPD sample Engineers Australia list to be included with mechanical engineer CDR sample includes professional courses, non-professional courses and private study. The author’s Mechanical Engineering Knowledge is judged based on the CPD provided to EA.

Mechanical Engineers CDR Summary Statement Sample:

For CDR report for mechanical engineer, the summary statement written by the author represents all the competency elements required as a Mechanical Engineer. As guided by the Engineers Australia migration skills assessment booklet, the summary statement comprises cross-references to the relevant paragraph of the episodes. The Summary Statement written with CDR summary statement must be in accordance with the requirements of Engineers Australia.
