This book is intended to serve as a guide for discovering pathways to more efficient energy use. The first part of the book illustrates basic laws of energy conversion and principles of thermodynamics. Laws of energy conservation and direction of energy conversion are formulated in detail, and the types of thermodynamic processes are explained. Also included is the characterization of various types of real energy conversion. The second part of the book discusses types of energy conversion referred to as thermal-energy technologies. The advantages of the co-generation processes and devices operating within the Brayton direct cycle and their adaptively to household energetics are underlined.
- Broad, multidisciplinary discussion of energy technologies
- Covers the applied side of thermal power generation expanded from a theoretical basis.
- Focus on different energy conversions and illustration of the concept on the basis of micro- and macro physics
- The link between processes running at micro level and the TDS state parameters is revealed
- Discusses energy convertible technologies of the engineering community and the various industrial, transport and households end-users
