Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Les gradients des variables thermodynamiques intensives, potentiels mécanique et électrique, pression, température et potentiel chimique, constituent des écarts à l’équilibre thermodynamique permettant d’extraire du travail de notre environnement. Les processus de conversion d’énergie utilisant ces sources d’énergies libres sont accompagnés d’une production d’entropie qui dégrade l’efficacité de conversion. Cet ouvrage de Physique de la conversion d’énergie est issu de plusieurs cours enseignés en France et à l’étranger, principalement en M1 et M2 à la Faculté des sciences d’Orsay et à l’École Polytechnique. Il est articulé autour de deux axes principaux : • l’étude des concepts et méthodes de la physique des processus irréversibles, orientée vers l’identification et l’analyse des mécanismes de production d’entropie ; • la description et l’analyse physique des principes et limitations des générateurs magnétohydrodynamiques, thermoélectriques, thermoïoniques, photovoltaïques et électrochimiques. Ce livre vise à offrir aux étudiants de nos facultés, aux élèves de nos écoles et aux chercheurs de nos instituts, une monographie permettant d’aborder les questions de l’efficacité et du rendement des systèmes de conversion d’énergie dans la continuité des cursus de physique appliquée, de physique fondamentale, ou d’ingénierie généraliste, aux niveaux M1-M2-D.

Book excerpt: Le contexte actuel mène les concepteurs vers des systèmes toujours plus complexes et performants, intégrant un grand nombre d’éléments souvent fortement couplés et appartenant à divers champs de la physique énergétique. Après une présentation de l’approche systémique de conception, ce premier volume rassemble les points-clés permettant de modéliser et de caractériser efficacement des systèmes multiphysiques (formalismes graphiques, Bond Graphs, GIC/REM), d’analyser la qualité et la stabilité des réseaux et de contribuer à la robustesse en conception intégrée. La gestion de l’énergie des systèmes énergétiques hybrides incluant du stockage est également largement détaillée et différentes méthodes statistiques permettant de dimensionner les réseaux ou de caractériser leur sûreté de fonctionnement sont proposées (par exemple, la méthode de Monte-Carlo). Les techniques d’analyse, de synthèse et de gestion présentées dans cet ouvrage participent à l’optimisation des systèmes énergétiques. Elles sont complétées par des approches spécifiquement orientées vers la conception par optimisation, objets du second volume.

This book was released on 2012-11-06 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le contexte économique impose des systèmes toujours plus performants, minimisant coûts d’investissement et de possession. Si les méthodes d’analyse, de synthèse et de gestion présentées dans le premier volume Conception systémique pour la conversion d’énergie électrique 1 participent à l’optimisation des systèmes énergétiques, les techniques traitées dans cet ouvrage proposent d’aller encore plus loin dans la performance. La complexité de systèmes multidisciplinaires à fort degré de couplage augmentant, le processus de conception par optimisation consistant à coupler un modèle à un algorithme d’optimisation au sein d’un environnement logiciel devient dès lors indispensable. Ce volume rassemble les points-clés permettant de représenter efficacement et de façon compacte l’environnement système et les profils de mission, mais également les méthodes, modèles et outils dédiés à l’optimisation. Les approches multiniveaux de conception et l’optimisation technico-économique des réseaux électriques sont particulièrement détaillées.

Book excerpt: Thermal transport and energy conversion has remained an active field for at least 200 years, with numerous opportunities for discoveries and new applications. Recently, experiments have advanced researchers' understanding of basic physics, and how new discoveries might translate into applications in energy, materials, quantum technologies, and other areas. The National Academies convened a workshop on April 11, 2019 to identify and assess the frontier of current research in the field of thermal transport and energy conversion. Discussions involved topics related to thermal transport and quasi-particle hydrodynamics, thermal transport beyond the quasiparticle paradigm, the thermal hall effect from neutral spin excitations in frustrated quantum magnets, quantization of the thermal hall conductivity at small hall angles, and thermal spin transport, including spin-seebeck and magnon drag effects. These topics were strategically selected with the goal of uncovering key challenges, opportunities, and issues in order to guide future efforts and investments to advance the field. This publication offers a condensed summary of the discussions and presentations from the workshop, which was unclassified and open to the public.
