Energy and Processes

Objectifs

At the end of this module, the student will have understood and be able to explain (main concepts):
- the world context of power-generating systems, which produces a net power output from a fossil, nuclear or renewable energy source.
- the legal and technical context of the various forms of renewable energy (wind, solar photovoltaic, biomass ...),
- the different thermodynamic cycles associated to the power generation systems, the refrigeration and heat pump systems and the gas liquefaction.
- the use of energy and exergy balances for these thermodynamic systems in order to optimize their operation



The student will be able to:
- design a given steam power plant, including the choice of working fluid temperatures, pressures and the determination of fluid working flows plus the pre-sizing of compressors and turbines
- design a refrigeration system, including the choice of working fluid temperatures, pressures and the determination of fluid working flows plus the preliminary design of compressors and expansion devices,
- design a gas liquefaction plant
- participate in the implementation of a wind energy area development and a site photovoltaic,
- participate in the implementation of a biogas network.
