商品描述

The Physics of Energy provides a comprehensive and systematic introduction to the scientific principles governing energy sources, uses, and systems. This definitive textbook traces the flow of energy from sources such as solar power, nuclear power, wind power, water power, and fossil fuels through its transformation in devices such as heat engines and electrical generators, to its uses including transportation, heating, cooling, and other applications. The flow of energy through the Earth's atmosphere and oceans, and systems issues including storage, electric grids, and efficiency and conservation are presented in a scientific context along with topics such as radiation from nuclear power and climate change from the use of fossil fuels. Students, scientists, engineers, energy industry professionals, and concerned citizens with some mathematical and scientific background who wish to understand energy systems and issues quantitatively will find this textbook of great interest.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

《能源物理學》提供了對能源來源、使用和系統的科學原理的全面而系統的介紹。這本權威教科書追蹤了能源從太陽能、核能、風能、水能和化石燃料等來源經過熱機和發電機等設備的轉化,到包括交通、供暖、冷卻和其他應用的使用。能源在地球大氣層和海洋中的流動,以及儲存、電網、效率和節能等系統問題,都以科學的背景呈現,還包括核能輻射和化石燃料使用引起的氣候變化等主題。希望以定量方式了解能源系統和問題的學生、科學家、工程師、能源行業專業人士和關注公民,將對這本教科書感興趣。他們需要具備一定的數學和科學背景。
