The book gives a comprehensive overview of technologies for decentralised power generation (DG technologies), including those based on both renewable energy sources (RES), and on combined heat and power (CHP) technologies, and of relevant policies of the EU and its Member States. ...
Starting from an overview on energy conversion and general concepts for Wind Energy systems, the concept, design and control of the electrical components are treated: generators, converters and storage devices. Much attention is spent on the implementation of Wind turbines and the requirements for power quality are ...
The papers are divided into three sections: high-temperature materials for power generation, including ferritic and austenitic steels; advanced high-temperature materials for the gas turbine engine and advanced processing, including particle metallurgy and directional solidification; and advanced materials ...
Focusing on geothermal energy systems, this unique work in the recently developed CRC series, Energy and the Environment looks at the background, theory, power generation, applications, strengths and weaknesses, and practical techniques for implementing geothermal energy projects. ...
Power Generation from Solid Fuels introduces the different technologies to produce heat and power from solid fossil (hard coal, brown coal) and renewable (biomass, waste) fuels, such as combustion and gasification, steam power plants and combined cycles etc. ...
Six papers review the behavior of petroleum based and phosphate ester type lubricants in turbine service, particularly in power generation. Emphasizes monitoring practices and the control of lubricant quality to protect equipment and ensure long oil service ...
Optimal Control of Wind Energy Systems presents a thoroughgoing review of the main control issues in wind power generation, offering a unified picture of the issues in optimal control of wind power generation. ...
Generation, transmission, distribution. Of the "big three" components of the electricity infrastructure, distribution typically gets the least attention. ...
It looks at the provision of geothermal energy within the framework of sustainable energy development in the developing countries for power generation, rural electrification and direct use to support small-scale industries, like food processing, greenhouse cultivation, ...
Heat transfer enhancement in single-phase and two-phase flow heat exchangers in important in such industrial applications as power generating plant, process and chemical industry, heating, ventilation, air conditioning and refrigeration systems, and the cooling of electronic equipment. ...
Solar electricity is a viable, environmentally sustainable alternative to the world’s energy supplies. In support, Dr. Krauter thoroughly examines the various technical parameters of photovoltaic systems. Study of performance and yield (including optical, thermal, and electrical parameters and interfaces) are analyzed. The net energy balance of photovoltaic systems – from production, operation ...
