This book presents recent research in the field of nonconventional and renewable energy, and energy efficiency in the context of thermal power. It addresses energy-efficiency and environmental issues that are critical in the production of thermal power, and also examines various applications, especially air conditioning, internal combustion engines, and solar electric power plants.
This book highlights the present scenario of energy demand and power generation technologies in tropical countries. The tropics are well known to receive direct sunlight. Furthermore, different than four-season countries, tropical countries have a continuous summer-like season, and therefore, they are rich in clean energy sources, like solar and biomass. Home to 40% of the world’s population, the demand for energy in these countries keeps increasing. With the present serious global concern on the environment, the choice of power generation is no doubt the cleanest possible resources. This book delves into the opportunity that various tropical countries have in pursuing environmentally friendly power generation systems.
This book briefly discusses the main provisions of the theory of modeling. It also describes in detail the methodology for constructing computer models of dynamic systems using the Wolfram visual modeling environment, SystemModeler, and provides illustrative examples of solving problems of mechanics and hydraulics. Intended for students and professionals in the field, the book also serves as a supplement to university courses in modeling and simulation of dynamic systems.
This book presents recent science and engineering research in the field of conventional and renewable energy, energy efficiency and optimization, discussing problems such as availability, peak load and reliability of sustainable supply for power to consumers. Such research is imperative since efficient and environmentally friendly solutions are critical in modern electricity production and transmission.
This book provides ideas for implementing Wolfram Mathematica to solve linear integral equations. The book introduces necessary theoretical information about exact and numerical methods of solving integral equations. Every method is supplied with a large number of detailed solutions in Wolfram Mathematica. In addition, the book includes tasks for individual study. This book is a supplement for students studying “Integral Equations”. In addition, the structure of the book with individual assignments allows to use it as a base for various courses.
This book highlights a diverse range of initiatives that have been launched to attain sustainable mobility systems, in particular regarding the energy efficiency aspect. It offers a valuable reference for various stakeholders in transportation systems, while also sharing new ideas on how transportation can meet the challenges of tomorrow.
The tropical zones are dominated by developing countries, which mainly face problematic environmental issues. Different than four-season countries, tropical countries have a continuous summer-like season and therefore they are rich in clean energy sources like solar and biomass. Hence, the mitigations of environment and energy issues in the tropics would require specific understanding and different approach to solutions. This book offers an assortment of studies on scenarios of environment as well as energy demand and power generation technologies in the tropics. Many of the countries within the tropics are highly populated, and this results in various problems related to the environment and...
This book discusses the maintenance aspect of rotating machines, which it addresses through a collection of contributions. Sharing the “hands-on” views of experienced engineers on the aspect of maintenance for rotating machines, it offers a valuable reference guide for practicing engineers in the related industries, providing them a glimpse of some of the most common problems associated with rotating machines and equipment in the field, and helping them achieve maximum performance efficiency and high machine availability.
