| 要約: | This work surveys the latest advances in energy conversion from currently available energy sources. The first part of the book summarizes fundamentals of seven types of energy sources: fossil fuels, biomass energy, nuclear, solar, and wind energy resources, and geothermal energy. The second part of the book describes conventional and advanced energy conversion technologies, such as steam power plants, gas turbines, internal combustion engines, combined cycle power plants, and Stirling engines. Storage technologies are also covered. Subsequent chapters cover renewable energy technologies including solar power, photovoltaics, and waste-to-energy combustion. Unconventional energy systems still under development, including nuclear fusion, ocean energy, and direct energy conversion by thermionic methods, are covered as well. Goswami is affiliated with the Clean Energy Research Center at the University of South Florida. Kreith is affiliated with the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Colorado. |
