engineering bookfair2015
Includes bibliographical references and index.
Chapter 1 - Introduction -- Chapter 2 - Environmental Characteristics -- Chapter 3 - Solar Energy Collectors -- Chapter 4 - Performance of Solar Collectors -- Chapter 5 - Solar Water-Heating Systems -- Chapter 6 - Solar Space Heating And Cooling -- Chapter 7 - Industrial Process Heat, Chemical Applications, and Solar Dryers -- Chapter 8 - Solar Desalination Systems -- Chapter 9 - Photovoltaic Systems -- Chapter 10 - Solar Thermal Power Systems -- Chapter 11 - Design and Modeling Of Solar Systems -- Chapter 12 - Solar Energy Analysis -- Chapter 13 - Wind Energy Systems
Annotation Solar Energy Engineering: Processes and Systems covers all areas of solar energy engineering, from the fundamental level to the highest level of current research. The book includes subjects such as: Energy-related environmental problemsSolar collectorsSolar water heating, space heating and coolingIndustrial process heatSolar desalinationPhotovoltaicsSolar thermal power systems The book also covers modeling of solar energy systems, including the use of artificial intelligence in modeling and performance prediction. With the threat of global warming and the gradual depletion of petroleum supplies, solar electric power is rapidly becoming a significant part of our energy mix. This book will be a valuable resource for mechanical, electrical and chemical engineers as well as academics, energy consulting companies, and solar energy companies. Environmental consequences of solar energySolar desalination including indirect systemsModeling and performance prediction of solar energy systemsWorked examples and case studies.
