Energy Management in Public Sector
Vosičková, Kateřina ; Tichá, Ivana (advisor) ; Petr, Petr (referee)
The main goal of this thesis called Energy Management in Public Sector is to analyze the current state of the facilities and premises of Prostějov municipality with the emphasis on power and gas supplies and the prospective changes in energy consumption. The first part of the thesis focuses on defining energy management, the role of energy manager, renewable and non-renewable energy sources, and relevant Czech and European legislation. Furthermore, it covers the strategic documents pertaining to energy management such as state energy policy, energy audits and energy performance certificates. The second part represents the practical part which is devoted to the implementation of energy management and introduction of energy management software for controlling, measuring and evaluating consumption levels, and attempts to find cheaper power and gas supplies. The data collected in the practical part of the thesis serve as a basis for a proposal ensuring power savings and convenient supplies for facilities operated or funded by Prostějov municipality.

Project of family farm as closed economic unit
Jakubčík, Václav ; Pazderů, Kateřina (advisor) ; Zdeněk, Zdeněk (referee)
The diploma thesis deals with the family farm, which deals with fast growing trees cultivation. Business plan for my firm is the operation of the cogeneration unit and ensuring its self-sufficiency. The intention is that the family farm should produce more than half the biomass for cogeneration units. Diploma thesis works with providing services in processing of logging residues, removing seeding trees and transportation. All this in order to obtain sufficient quantities of the commodity for the operation of boiler plants with cogeneration unit. Further outputs are addressed including the use of waste heat. Necessary support in planning the boiler room is the SWOT analysis. Conclusion of SWOT analysis clearly support the business plan for hte operation of a family farm. Another key factor, that motivates me to expand current boiler room is a continuously rising electricity price. I suppose part of the generated electric power will be used for wood drying, the rest of the energy power is supposed to be sold to CEZ. Revenue from electricity sales should improve my Cash-Flow. An important source of energy is a waste hot water that will be used for heating lumber drying, rabbit slaughterhouses of Rabbit firm. The rest of hot water waste will be used for heating workshops and residential buildings around. The main incentive for founding a family farm is request to have enough fuel for the cogeneration unit also in case of external source shortage. The target is to ensure fluent economic operation of whole technological equipment. My target is an overall economic assessment of the project for extracting of biomass from various sources. After an overall assessment we got conclusion, that the project can be profitable especially due to own production. Services provided by my farm creates significant additional value. For family farm founding motivates me also unemployment of several family members.

Flat owners association
Zemková, Lucie ; Kadlecová, Eva (advisor) ; Hájková, Ivana (referee)
This thesis is focused on the ownership of flats in the Czech Republic, which from 1.1. 2014 is governed by Act no. 89/2012 Coll., Civil Code, as amended, focusing on the specific type of legal entity, which is the apartment owners. The theoretical part is an analysis of the basic characteristics of the flat owner association, it describe its main activity, the formation and cessation, the power of statutory authorities and finally the rights and obligations of its members. This thesis is focussed on the changes introduced by the new civil code. The practical part is devoted to the the analysis and evaluation of the survey results with the objective to find out how the flat owners association works in reality in a specific area. The focus was on the most frequent problems they face and an indication of the possible solutions. Further the thesis also points out the most common errors that occur in the appliocation of the new civil code no. 89/2012 Coll.

Strategies of Agricultural Development in Angola. Case study: Catabola municipality
Rušarová, Kristina ; Havrland, Bohumil (advisor) ; Jiří, Jiří (referee)
Catabola municipality is one of the most damaged areas of civil war in Angola. Although the climatic as well as soil conditions are favorable for intensive agriculture, small farmers in the municipality are subsistence with the main income source of dried beans, dried cassava and vegetables. Hand-tool technology prevails in the Catabola municipality as it is employed in 95.38 % of the cultivated land of small farmers. The majority of small farmers uses only power of their family members (with a mean of 1.80 kW and standard deviation of 2.37 kW), hired labour is used by 38.0 % of small farmers. In addition, high engagement of child work was found out as 63.88 % of the children age 5-14 are involved in field operations. Primary data collection was conducted in the Catabola municipality in the period July - August 2011, semi-structured questionnaires and focus group discussions were the most frequent methods used. In total, 151 small scale farmers out of 9 villages participated in the survey. 10 factors that influence the dependent variable -- type of farmer regarding technology used on field in combination with hiring of extra labour -- were defined. The factors were statistically analyzed with use of ANOVA. Out of the factors expected to influence adoption of more sophisticated technologies than the hand-tool, increasing in size of the cultivated land and enhancement of education of both parents and children are found to be the limiting factor in the adoption process for use of animal traction or mechanical power from small farmers in the Catabola municipality. Strategy was formulated with use of simplified quantified SWOT analysis separately for animal-draught and mechanical-power technologies. The result can be interpreted as 8.0% assumption of success in animal traction adoption, contrary to 10.1% assumption of failures in mechanization adoption by small farmers in the Catabola municipality. Thus, tractors are not considered as an appropriate technology for small farmers in the Catabola municipality. The most critical criteria in animal traction adoption that should be considered are support of farmers' cooperatives and associations, FFSs, education in the form of general schooling as well as trainings for farmers, blacksmiths, extension workers and animal breeders.

Methods of measuring the power parameters of diesel engines
Dvořák, Marek ; Pexa, Martin (advisor) ; Čedík, Jakub (referee)
The thesis deals with the performance measurement of tractor engine through four used different methods. In the first theoretical part of thesis is analysis engine design with its main groups and the second part explains methods of measuring performance and measuring equipment. In the practical part of thesis is the explained methodology of applied methods of measurement, together with their evaluation. The first applied method is performance measurement on the dynamometer, the second method is measurement of these parameters during free acceleration, the third method is measurement of parameters during free acceleration with load and fourth method is measurement of parameters using GPS. In conclusion of this part is to compare the results of each used measurement methods between themselves and the conclusions drawn from it.

Comparison of methods for measuring the tension force of the tractor during soil tillage.
Buřič, Milan ; Novák, Petr (advisor) ; Hůla, Josef (referee)
The theoretical part of the diploma thesis deals with soil qualities which influence the soil processing. The soil processing itself is described in the theoretical part as well as advantages and disadvantages of the specific processing, a choice of technology for effective soil processing and economic aspects of the processing. In this part there is an extract describing a test of a tractor pulling and reasons for making the test of pulling in laboratory and field conditions. The practical part of the thesis deals compares two methods of a tractor pulling power during field tests. A belt tractor John Deere 8320 RT and a wheel tractor New Holland T7050 were tested. The target of a pulling test in ter-rain was to define which resistance makes a soil in specific conditions and which pulling power is needed for a certain working output on a given land. The results were pro-cessed and evaluated with computer technology. The whole measurement took place with support of a BEDNAR FMT company.
