Explores the evaporation process of a water pond near the sea on a summer day, covering heat and mass transfer laws, convective heat transfer, and practical exercises.
Explores the origin and potential of wind energy, including solar energy conversion, Earth's rotation effects, wind circulation, and global wind power capacity.
Explores the large-scale dynamics of the mid-latitude atmosphere, covering topics such as momentum conservation, jet streams, weather fronts, and cyclones.
Explores the efficiency of phase change processes, focusing on evaporation and boiling, differentiating between the two and discussing the various regimes of pool boiling.
Provides an overview of geothermal energy systems, covering thermodynamic principles, heat pump technologies, and the classification of geothermal reservoirs.
Covers stability concepts in structures, including examples of stable and unstable configurations, the role of diagonal bars, and the risk of buckling.
