Course Description
Various energy collection and conversion systems for different utilization environments are introduced. Division standards and evaluation indexes for various categories of energy systems are discussed. The energy efficiency enhancement, environmentally friendly, economically affordable solutions for different energy systems and their underlying physics based mechanisms are presented. Holistic approach for combined objectives is provided. Optimal criteria for combined criterion is proposed for taking the multiple objectives into account to satisfy affordable sustainable green energy systems.
