This comprehensive book offers a fundamental theoretical framework for comprehending, modelling, and optimizing energy conversion and storage devices. The discussion is rooted in the principles of efficiency-power relations and energy-power relations (Ragone plots). Designed for engineers and scientists with a bachelor's degree in physics, Efficiency and Power in Energy Conversion and Storage: Basic Physical Concepts provides a comprehensive exploration of the topic. It encompasses:
An introductory motivation that highlights the significance of the topic
A comprehensive review of equilibrium thermodynamics
A primer on linear non-equilibrium thermodynamics and irreversible processes
An introduction to endo-reversible thermodynamics
A thorough exploration of the theory of Ragone plots
Derivations of efficiency-power relations or Ragone plots, with illustrative examples spanning heat engines, batteries, capacitors, kinetic energy storage devices, solar power, photodiodes, electro-motors, transformers, and flow turbines
An excursive exploration of impedance matching and the optimization of technical devices with respect to economic and related objectives
By delving into these core concepts, the book equips readers with the knowledge and tools necessary to advance the field of energy conversion and storage. It serves as a valuable resource for students, researchers, and professionals seeking to deepen their understanding of these critical technologies.
