Interdisciplinary (99)Cogeneration is an area of growing importance to the economic viability of many industries. This project integrates real-time data and analysis from a 25 MW cogeneration system into the Chemical and Mechanical Engineering curricula. This project enhances the understanding of cogeneration systems and power-related issues in undergraduate students. Additionally, it provides educational tools for the rapid analysis of such systems. Vertical integration of system operations throughout the curriculum provides exploration of global issues for senior undergraduate students. Tools are open source and utilize standard platforms for ease in future adoption by other institutions. The involved departments emphasize activities to effectively involve underrepresented student groups. Assessment activities include a team of experts in industrial cogeneration reviewing the developed materials. This project serves as a model for outlining methods to integrate real-time data into curricula at various levels of complexity.

跨学科（99）热电联产是一个越来越重要的领域，许多行业的经济可行性。 该项目将来自25兆瓦热电联产系统的实时数据和分析集成到化学和机械工程课程中。 本计画增进本科生对热电联产系统及电力相关议题的了解。 此外，它还提供了快速分析此类系统的教育工具。 整个课程系统操作的垂直整合为高年级本科生提供了全球问题的探索。 工具是开源的，并利用标准平台，便于其他机构将来采用。 参与部门强调活动，以有效地参与代表性不足的学生团体。 评估活动包括由一个工业热电联产专家小组审查所编写的材料。 该项目作为一个模式，概述了将实时数据纳入各种复杂程度的课程的方法。
