en Limba Engleză Hardback – 18 ian 2023
This comprehensive guide to sustainable energy builds robust connections between abstract theory and practical applications, providing students with a global perspective on this most timely subject. Includes a succinct refresher on essential thermodynamics, fluid mechanics and heat transfer, giving students a solid foundation on which to build. Introduces technologies for hydropower, biomass, geothermal, ocean, solar and wind energy, and fuel cells, with material on nuclear energy, fossil fuel generation and future energy directions, providing a consistent framework for analyzing past, present and future energy systems. Provides coding examples, and real-world case studies, giving students experience in applying theory to practice. Supported by topics for classroom debate, video solutions, and links to online resources, to interactively engage students and inspire further exploration. With a consistent structure and pedagogy, over 160 end-of-chapter problems, and solutions for instructors, this is the ideal introduction for senior undergraduate and graduate students, and a resource for energy professionals.

Recenzii

'Sustainable Energy provides a solid and timely introduction to different energy technologies and how they are linked to sustainability. It includes comprehensive coverage of alternative energy technologies. The book also introduces the readers to economic concepts necessary to assess and compare the feasibility of different power plants. It is an excellent book for students who want to learn about sustainable energy technologies' technical and economic aspects and see these concepts at work. Sustainable Energy connects theory to practice and presents interesting real-world examples to accomplish this.' Ugur Soytas, Technical University of Denmark
'In these times of global upheaval arising from catastrophic climate events and/or geopolitical conflicts, we have been forced to contend with high prices of fuels and looming energy deficits. Professor Celik's book offers engineering-based solutions for the world's current and future energy needs by transitioning away from major reliance on fossil fuels to clean and renewable technologies.' Sergio Mendez, California State University, Long Beach
