Energy Transfer and Conversion Methods MIT 9/16/2010. Sustainable Energy Fall 2010 Conversion 1. Mission of this Session Introduce the importance and challenges of Energy Conversion Diffuse Energy sources Thermodynamic limits Rate processes 2. Sustainable Energy Fall 2010 Conversion Energy Conversion Energy Conversion is the process of changing Energy from one form to another Energy Energy Useful Source Conversion Energy 3. Sustainable Energy Fall 2010 Conversion Historic Energy Conversion Sequences Biomass heat (esp. cooking). Solar heat , dry clothes, dry food Solar is still main light source, no need for Conversion Solar is source of biomass, wind, hydro, etc. Biomass farm animals horsepower, food Later, people also did these conversions: Coal heat Hydro milling flour, running machinery Wind pump water 4.
• Solar → heat, dry clothes, dry food – Solar is still main light source, no need for conversion – Solar is source of biomass, wind, hydro, etc. • Biomass → farm animals → horsepower, food Later, people also did these conversions: • Coal → heat • Hydro → milling flour, running machinery • Wind → pump water
