Mechanical Energy Conversion presents twelve application exercises and their answers. They enable the reader to first understand the physical principles of mechanical energy converters and then learn the method for sizing them. The book also reinforces the concepts of fluid mechanics and hydraulic turbo machinery, which are required to solve the exercises. This book aims to instruct readers on how to design an energy system. For each renewable energy source covered - and based on the quantity of energy or power supplied - it describes the production process, explains how it works and calculates the characteristics and dimensions of its components. 4aRenewable Energy964206 4aMaterials for Energy Systems 4aMechanical Engineering - Design99110300amechanical energy conversion; mechanical energy converters; fluid mechanics; hydraulic turbo machinery; renewable energy; wind power; tidal power; hydroelectric power; osmotic energy; ocean thermal energy; wave energy08iPrinted edition:z978178630923540uhttps://doi.org/10.1002/9781394299065aWiley Online Library40uhttps://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/action/showBook?doi=10.1002%2F9781394299065aWiley Online Library423Cover Imageuhttps://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/cms/asset/e80ebe59-8245-45ac-a4a4-df1dbf86a129/9781394299065.cover.gifaWiley Online Library  c67003d67003
