Synopsis

A great resource for beginner students and professionals alike

Introduction to Energy, Renewable Energy and Electrical Engineering: Essentials for Engineering Science (STEM) Professionals and Students brings together the fundamentals of Carnot's laws of thermodynamics, Coulomb's law, electric circuit theory, and semiconductor technology. The book is the perfect introduction to energy-related fields for undergraduates and non-electrical engineering students and professionals with knowledge of Calculus III. Its unique combination of foundational concepts and advanced applications delivered with focused examples serves to leave the reader with a practical and comprehensive overview of the subject.

The book includes:

• A combination of analytical and software solutions in order to relate aspects of electric circuits at an accessible level
• A thorough description of compensation of flux weakening (CFW) applied to inverter-fed, variable-speed drives not seen anywhere else in the literature
• Numerous application examples of solutions using PSPICE, Mathematica, and finite difference/finite element solutions such as detailed magnetic flux distributions
• Manufacturing of electric energy in power systems with integrated renewable energy sources where three-phase inverter supply energy to interconnected, smart power systems

Connecting the energy-related technology and application discussions with urgent issues of energy conservation and renewable energy - such as photovoltaics and ground-water heat pump resulting in a zero-emissions dwelling - Introduction to Energy, Renewable Energy, and Electrical Engineering crafts a truly modern and relevant approach to its subject matter.

A propos du livre

À propos de l?auteur

EWALD F. FUCHS, Ph.D., has held professional engineering posts for 8 years at Siemens AG in Erlangen and Mülheim/Ruhr, Germany in the areas of control, energy conversion, and power systems, and a tenured faculty position thereafter for 35 years at the University of Colorado, teaching undergraduate and graduate energy conversion/power classes. He holds two U.S. patents on AC machines with increased torque and speed for hybrid/electric propulsion employing compensation of flux weakening (CFW).

HEIDI A. FUCHS is a Senior Scientific Engineering Associate in Energy Technologies Area at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL), with experience in energy use analysis, life-cycle energy and cost assessments, energy management practices, the energy-water nexus, spreadsheet modelling, and technical documentation.
