PWRP 203 Energy Sources and Conversions

Students enrolled in this course will study the various forms of energy and the processes used to convert chemical and potential energy into thermal, mechanical and in some instance’s electrical energy. Energy sources that will be studied include fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas), hydro, wind, fuel cells, and solar, derived fuel, geothermal and nuclear. Combustion and reaction will be discussed in detail for those energy sources that require combustion to convert from one energy form to another.
