Modern Power Systems and Units
Topic Information
Dear Colleagues,
The topics include a whole range of issues related to the generation of electricity and heat using fossil fuels, renewable energy sources and nuclear power. Municipal waste disposal and waste energy recovery in industry are also included. In particular, the papers will address the following topics:
- fuels and energy sources
- thermal energy
- energy use,
- economic, ecological, social and legal aspects of energy conversion.
The design, construction and operation of electricity and heat generation systems using renewable energy sources, nuclear energy and fossil fuels will be analysed. In view of the rapid development of renewable energy-based power generation, considerable attention will be given to the cooperation of existing large power units with distributed energy sources. Energy self-sufficient buildings using solar energy (photovoltaic cells, solar collectors) and air and ground source heat pumps are of particular importance to the utilisation of green technology in this field.
Modern heating, ventilating and air conditioning (HVAC) systems will also be among the focuses. New methods will be presented for the mathematical modelling of power and heat generation systems and equipment. Due to large fluctuations in the price of conventional fuels, a lot of attention will be paid to the development directions of power and heat generation systems, mainly with a view to price reduction and independence from a single supplier.
