OverviewAs the 21st century approaches new demands are being set for more energy production at lower cost and reduced environmental impact. The current power production technology cannot accommodate the new requiremnts, therefore new advanced energy systems, that have been developed within the last decades, have become the mature contender. The development trends are directed at at the change over from basicaqlly steam power technology to combined cycle power plants based on such plants as gas turbines, fuel cells, MHD-generators, as well as the advanced energy systmens based on the utilization of renewable energy sources. This book deals with all those energy systems which have reached a sufficiently mature state of development to conform to the requirment of commercial application before the end of this century. Providing a review of recent energy technology, development trends, and the future of power engineering. It includes end-of-chapter questions for students. A solutions manual is also available.
