This course covers fundamentals of thermodynamics, chemistry, flow and transport processes as applied to energy systems. Topics include analysis of energy conversion in thermochemical and thermomechanical,processes as seen in existing power and transportation systems, and ways these processes may be improved in the future. Systems utilizing fossil fuels, biofuels, hydrogen, and other chemical energy sources over a range of sizes and scales are discussed. Applications include fuel reforming, hydrogen and synthetic fuel production, combustion, thermal power cycles, fuel cells and catalysis. The course also deals with combustion emissions and environmental impacts,optimal source utilization and fuel-life cycle analysis. Three hours of lecture and three hours of lab per week. 04-01-2023-03-05-2023 Lecture Monday, Wednesday, Friday 01:30PM - 02:20PM, SDU Main Bldg, Room 409
