- Objective (expected results of study and acquired competences)
-
• You are familiar with the key components of our energy system and can name the contributions made by individual energy sources.
• You can determine the exergy content of different forms of energy (mechanical, electrical, thermal, chemical energy).
• You can quantitatively evaluate energy conversion chains based on exergy analysis.
• You are familiar with examples of practical energy systems and can explain how they work.
• You can discuss different energy conversion paths in a comparative manner.
