Official WAEC Refrigeration and Air-Conditioning outline · Detailed Syllabus
Content
Workshop safety rules, PPE equipment, fire extinguishers, first aid, energy forms/conversion, internal energy, enthalpy, pressure-enthalpy (p-h) diagrams, states/changes of matter, compressor power calculations, thermometry, temperature scale conversions, pressure measurement devices (manometers, Bourdon gauges), suction/discharge pressure gauges, and gas laws (Boyle's, Charles', Dalton's, General)
Objective
Enforce safety regulations, operate fire extinguishers, and administer first aid; demonstrate mechanical to heat energy conversion and phase changes of matter; compute compressor power consumption in watts/kilowatts; convert temperature scales (Celsius, Fahrenheit, Kelvin, Rankine) and identify fixed temperature points; measure pressure using barometers, manometers, and Bourdon gauges; solve numerical calculations using general gas laws.
