СКАЧАТЬ Efficiency and Power in Energy Conversion and Storage : Basic Physical Concepts БЕСПЛАТНО EPUB - DOC - DJVU - RTF - PDFОписание: This textbook provides fundamental theoretical concepts for the understanding, modelling, and optimisation of energy conversion and storage devices. The discussion is based on the general footing of efficiency-power relations and energy-power relations (Ragone plots). The book is written for engineers and scientists with a bachelor-degree level of knowledge in physics.
It contains:
- An introductory motivation of the topic
- A review on equilibrium thermodynamics
- A primer to linear non-equilibrium thermodynamics and irreversible processes
- An introduction to endo-reversible thermodynamics
- The basics on the theory of Ragone plots
- Derivations of efficiency-power relations or Ragone plots for illustrative examples like heat engines, batteries, capacitors, kinetic energy storage devices, solar power, photodiodes, electro-motors, transformers, and flow turbines
- An excursion to impedance matching and the optimization of technical devices with respect to economic and related objectives
