*课程简介(Description

新能源系统课程将根据所依赖的各项技术来介绍各种能源系统。基于热力学及经济性的原则,对各类能源系统进行分析。同时,对新能源系统使用的背景,包括气候变化、能源可再生等议题,也会有相应的介绍。

*课程简介(Description

New Energy Systems (Credits: 3) - Typical energy systems will be introduced with economic and thermodynamic principles. Various production systems will be analyzed. Sustainability, climate change, and other current energy system topics will also be addressed. The technologies of clean renewable energy such as nuclear power, hydropower, solar energy and wind energy are discussed, followed by a review of the state-of-the-art processes to produce alternative fuels such as biodiesel, bioethanol and biogases. Mobile power packs such as battery technology, hydrogen energy and fuel cells are discussed and the prospects of application in the transportation sector are examined. Lastly, energy sources from the Mother Nature such as geothermal energy, ocean thermal energy, tidal and wave energy for power generation are discussed
