INTRODUCTION
TO
ENERGY SCIENCE
ENERGY
 Energy is defined as the ability to do work.

 Energy can be found in many things and can


take different forms.

 For example, kinetic energy is the energy of


motion, and potential energy is energy due to an
object's position or structure.

 Energy is never lost, but it can be converted


from one form to another.
ENERGY
Sources of Energy
 Sun (Solar Energy)
 Wind
 Water
 Fossil Fuels

Types of Energy Sources


 Renewable energy sources
 Non renewable energy sources
ENERGY
 Heat energy, obtained by burning fuels like
wood, coal, kerosene or LPG is used for
cooking food.

 Energy obtained from petrol & diesel is used


to run vehicles.

Energy Efficiency

 Efficiency signifies a peak level of performance that


uses the least amount of inputs to achieve
the highest amount of output.

 Energy efficiency, means using less energy to perform


the same task.

methods and technologies used to store
electricity.

 There are many different forms of energy


storage.

 Natural Gas
FOSSIL FUELS
COAL

 Coal is a fossil fuel created from the remains


of plants that lived and died about 100 to
400 million years ago when parts of the earth
were covered with huge swampy forests.

 Coal is classified as a nonrenewable energy


source because it takes millions of years to
form.
FOSSIL FUELS
COAL

 Millions of years ago, dead plant matter fell


into the swampy water and over the years, a
thick layer of dead plants lay decaying at the
bottom of the swamps.

 Over time, the surface and climate of the


earth changed, and more water and dirt
washed in, halting the decay process.
FOSSIL FUELS
COAL

 The weight of the top layers of water and dirt


packed down the lower layers of plant matter.

 Under heat and pressure, this plant matter


underwent chemical and physical changes,
pushing out oxygen and leaving rich
hydrocarbon deposits.
Availability of Coal
 There are an estimated 1.1 trillion tonnes of
proven coal reserves worldwide.

 This means that there is enough coal to last


us around 150 years at current rates of
production.

 In contrast, proven oil and gas reserves are


equivalent to around 50 and 52 years at
current production levels.
Availability of Coal

 Resource: The amount of coal that may be


present in a deposit or coalfield.

 Reserve: Proved & Probable Reserve


Coal Gasification
 Coal gasification is a thermo-chemical process in
which the gasifier's heat and pressure break down
coal into its chemical constituents.

 The resulting "syngas" is comprised primarily of


carbon monoxide and hydrogen, and occasionally
other gaseous compounds.

 Coal gas can also be converted into a transportation


fuel as a substitute for gasoline in vehicles, but it is
far less efficient than the current production and
burning of petroleum-based gasoline.
Coal Gasification
 Coal gasification is said to have greater efficiency
than conventional coal-burning because it can
effectively use the gases twice:

 The coal gases are first cleansed of impurities and


fired in a turbine to generate electricity.

 Then, the exhaust heat from the gas turbine can be


captured and used to generate steam for a steam
turbine-generator.

 This is called a combined cycle.


Alternative for Fossil Fuels
 Solar Energy

 Wind Energy

 Biomass Energy

 Wave & Tidal Energy

 Nuclear Energy

 Hydrogen Energy
Solar Energy
 The Sun (or Sol), is the star at the centre of our
solar system and is responsible for the Earth’s
climate and weather.

 The Sun is an almost perfect sphere with a


difference of just 10km in diameter between
the poles and the equator.

 The average radius of the Sun is 695,508 km


(109.2 x that of the Earth) of which 20–25% is
the core.
Solar Energy
Facts about the Sun
 At its centre the Sun reaches temperatures of

15 million °C.
 The Sun is all the colors mixed together, this

appears white to our eyes.


 The Sun is mostly composed of hydrogen

(70%) and Helium (28%).


 The Sun is a main-sequence G2V star (or

Yellow Dwarf).
 The Sun is 4.6 billion years old.
 The Sun is 109 times wider than the Earth

and 330,000 times as massive.
