Heat Engines, Boiler Chemistry And Refrigeration is a dynamic subject that continuously shifts from one perspective to another. However, the technicality is the same even if the theories and perspectives vary. Hence to gain knowledge in this subject you must be equipped with more vicious on the syllabus.
In this article, we tried to provide the required syllabus of the MV3412 Heat Engines, Boiler Chemistry And Refrigeration subject to gain command of the subject matter. By the end of the course, you will be trained and guided with useful knowledge regarding technical english, which plays a major role in understanding the core of this B.E Marine Engineering semester IV related to Affiliated institutions awarded by Anna University course. Hope this information is useful. Kindly share it with your friends. Comment below if you have queries regarding the syllabus.
