Abstract

We are living in the age of the energy crisis. To survive ourselves, it is crucial to find highly efficient technologies and change from the current fossil fuel-heavy energy mix to renewable-based energy generation. The present chapter highlights three main fields: solar and wind energy utilization and combustion. Then the last section briefly discusses the building blocks of thermal power cycles. These selected topics provide a versatile knowledge to the reader to identify the waste heat sources and find a proper solution that harvests it. Each of the first three sections features a deeply discussed, solved thermal problem, and the last section includes the key equations to allow the reader to perform initial calculations on the key components of a thermal cycle.

  2. 2.

    Beyond entropy, another environment-centric evaluation method, the exergy analysis reveals the effect of combustion in greater detail. Its single message is to use the appropriate heat source for a given process [219, 220], i.e., it is highly destructive to produce warm water (\({\sim }\)40–60 \(^\circ \)C) at home by using a natural gas-fired boiler that produces \({\sim } 1000\) \(^\circ \)C flue gas.
