Energy and power engineering is devoted to the utilization of traditional energy and the development of new energy, as well as how to use energy more efficiently. Energy includes not only traditional energy sources such as water, coal and oil, but also new energy sources such as nuclear energy, wind energy and bioenergy, as well as hydrogen energy that will be widely used in the future. Power includes internal combustion engine, boiler, aero-engine, refrigeration and related test technology. 20 12 The Ministry of Education adjusted thermal energy and power engineering to energy and power engineering in the new edition of undergraduate specialty catalogue of ordinary colleges and universities. Considering the professional development of students, the major of thermal energy and power engineering is divided into the following four professional directions: engineering thermophysical process and its automatic control, power machinery and its automation, fluid machinery and its automatic control, thermal energy engineering and its automation in power plants.
