Beskrivning

Applied Thermodynamics: Low-Temperature and Renewable Energy Systems pairs key fundamentals with practical applications that support sustainability. After outlining basic concepts and positions of thermodynamics, the book breaks down theory, the classic governing laws of thermodynamics, and overviews thermodynamic processes. The text then shifts to practical application examples, examining open systems, heat power plants, HVAC and power supply systems from renewable sources, methods and the efficiency of thermal systems, and machines and equipment. Geared to students and researchers, the book is packed with solved problems and self-control tests to facilitate understanding.

The text fosters practical innovation in a well-established field by offering readers a contemporary examination of a topic as essential to energy as heat itself. Grounded in classical principles, this contemporary reference considers throughout the context of our current energy mix, applying the critical lens of sustainability and sustainable options for energy conversion.

Explains methods of entropy and exergy analysis
Dissects historical digressions of fundamental provisions of thermodynamics, leading to more complete understanding
Provides practical application examples of energy-conversion processes in power plants, drawn from various energy sources
Addresses the development of both schemes and installations for conversion of various types of energy that contribute to the replacement of fossil fuels and the reduction of CO2 emissions
