This book presents novel concepts in the development of high-temperature superconducting (HTS) devices and discusses the technologies involved in producing efficient and economically feasible energy technologies around the world.
Providing innovative efficient, clean, and safe solutions and research for interfacing internet technology with energy power grids for smart cities and smart transportation, this new volume discusses the use and automation of electricity infrastructures for energy producers and manufacturers, integrating the implementation of the Internet of Things (IoT) technology for distributed energy systems in order to optimize energy efficiency and wastage.
Advances in Clean Energy: Production and Application supports sustainable clean energy technology and green fuel for clean combustion by reviewing the pros and cons of currently available technologies specifically for biodiesel production from biomass sources, recent fuel modification strategy, low-temperature combustion technology, including other biofuels as well.
Choosing appropriate practices and policies for biofuel production requires an understanding of how soils, climate, farm types, infrastructure, markets and social organisation affect the establishment and performance of these crops.
The design of a hydroelectric plant, along with an installation of transformation of potential energy of water into electricity, is an activity that is not standardized.
*; Details how sacred sites resonate at the same frequencies as both the Earth and the alpha waves of the human brain *; Shows how human writing in its original hieroglyphic form was a direct response to the divine sound patterns of sacred sites *; Explains how ancient hero myths from around the world relate to divine acoustic science and formed the source of religion The Earth resonates at an extremely low frequency.
Our understanding of nature, and in particular of physics and the laws governing it, has changed radically since the days of the ancient Greek natural philosophers.
This proceedings volume brings together selected peer-reviewed papers presented at the 2014 International Conference on Frontier of Energy and Environment Engineering.
During the upgrading of heavy petroleum, asphaltene is the most problematic impurity since it is the main cause of catalyst deactivation and sediments formation.
Biomass and Carbon Fuels in Metallurgy presents contemporary and new insights into the use of carbonaceous (Biomass) fuels in the metallurgical sector.
Heat Recovery with Commercial, Institutional, and Industrial Heat Pumps presents the basic concepts and thermodynamic behavior of mechanical vapor compression and recompression.
This new volume, Design and Construction of Laboratory Gas Pipelines: A Practical Reference for Engineers and Professionals, focuses on design and installation of laboratory gas pipelines.
In this book, an international team of highly qualified experts treats important topics in "e;Acoustic Echo and Noise Control"e; and report the latest developments.
The first complete proof of Arnold diffusion-one of the most important problems in dynamical systems and mathematical physicsArnold diffusion, which concerns the appearance of chaos in classical mechanics, is one of the most important problems in the fields of dynamical systems and mathematical physics.
This book explores the intrinsically multiscale issue of renewable energy transition from a local, national and transnational perspective, and provides insights into current developments in the Upper Rhine Region that can serve as an international model.
The importance of thermodynamics, particularly its Second Principle, to all branches of science in which systems with very large numbers of particles are involved cannot be overstated.
l "Zeit" ist das meistgebrauchte Hauptwort der deutschen Sprache , woraus man schließen könnte, daß es sich um einen wohlverstandenen Begriff han delt.
An increase in the global demand for energy, combined with an increase in the price of energy and energy products, has advanced the growing interest in renewable energy technologies and the wide implementation of renewable energy sources (RES).
This book presents a state-of-the-art overview of the research and development in designing electrode and electrolyte materials for Li-ion batteries and supercapacitors.
This book provides an essential overview of wind science and engineering, taking readers on a journey through the origins, developments, fundamentals, recent advancements and latest trends in this broad field.
This book presents generalized heat-conduction laws which, from a mesoscopic perspective, are relevant to new applications (especially in nanoscale heat transfer, nanoscale thermoelectric phenomena, and in diffusive-to-ballistic regime) and at the same time keep up with the pace of current microscopic research.
This comprehensive reference text discusses simulation with case studies and realworld applications related to energy system models, the large-scale integration of renewable energy systems, electric vehicles, and energy storage systems.
This new edition of A Guide to Energy Management in Buildings begins by asking why we need to control energy use in buildings and proceeds to discuss how the energy consumption of a building can be assessed or estimated through an energy audit.
This short primer offers non-specialist readers a concise, yetcomprehensive introduction to the field of classical fluids providing bothfundamental information and a number of selected topics to bridge the gapbetween the basics and ongoing research.
Energy Geotechnics includes 97 technical papers presented at the 1st International Conference on Energy Geotechnics (ICEGT 2016, Kiel, Germany, 29-31 August 2016).
Functional Analysis is primarily concerned with the structure of infinite dimensional vector spaces and the transformations, which are frequently called operators, between such spaces.
This edited monograph contains the proceedings of the International Shock Interaction Symposium, which emerged as an heir to both the Mach Reflection and Shock Vortex Interaction Symposia.
The ICTCA conference provides an interdisciplinary forum for active researchers in academia and industry who are of varying backgrounds to discuss the state-of-the-art developments and results in theoretical and computational acoustics and related topics.
