This book provides high-quality research results and proposes
future priorities for more sustainable development and energy
security. It covers a broad range of topics on atmospheric changes,
climate change impacts, climate change modeling and simulations,
energy and environment policies, energy resources and conversion
technologies, renewables, emission reduction and abatement, waste
management, ecosystems and biodiversity, and sustainable
development. Gathering selected papers from the 7th Global
Conference on Global Warming (GCGW2018), held in Izmir, Turkey on
June 24-28, 2018, it: Offers comprehensive coverage of the
development of systems taking into account climate change,
renewables, waste management, chemical aspects, energy and
environmental issues, along with recent developments and
cutting-edge information Highlights recent advances in the area of
energy and environment, and the debate on and shaping of future
directions and priorities for a better environment, sustainable
development and energy security Provides a number of practical
applications and case studies Is written in an easy-to-follow
style, moving from the basics to advanced systems. Given its scope,
the book offers a valuable resource for readers in academia and
industry alike, and can be used at the graduate level or as a
reference text for professors, researchers and engineers.
This book covers emerging energy storage technologies and material
characterization methods along with various systems and
applications in building, power generation systems and thermal
management. The authors present options available for reducing the
net energy consumption for heating/cooling, improving the thermal
properties of the phase change materials and optimization methods
for heat storage embedded multi-generation systems. An in-depth
discussion on the natural convection-driven phase change is
included. The book also discusses main energy storage options for
thermal management practices in photovoltaics and phase change
material applications that aim passive thermal control. This book
will appeal to researchers and professionals in the fields of
mechanical engineering, chemical engineering, electrical
engineering, renewable energy, and thermodynamics. It can also be
used as an ancillary text in upper-level undergraduate courses and
graduate courses in these fields.
Thermodynamic Analysis and Optimization of Geothermal Power Plants
guides researchers and engineers on the analysis and optimization
of geothermal power plants through conventional and innovative
methods. Coverage encompasses the fundamentals, thermodynamic
analysis, and optimization of geothermal power plants. Advanced
thermodynamic analysis tools such as exergy analysis,
thermoeconomic analysis, and several thermodynamic optimization
methods are covered in depth for different configurations of
geothermal power plants through case studies. Interdisciplinary
research with relevant economic and environmental dimensions are
addressed in many of the studies. Multiobjective optimization
studies aimed at better efficiency, lower cost, and a lower
environmental impact are also discussed in this book.
