RENEWABLE SOURCES OF ENERGY A SEMINAR REPORT Submitted by Mr. SWARN SINGH In partial fulfillment for the award of the degree of MASTER OF TECHNOLOGY IN MACHINE DESIGN AT PTU REGIONAL CENTRE BABA BANDA SINGH BAHADUR ENGINEERING COLLEGE FATEHGARH SAHIB DEC 2011 ABSTRACT The study of renewable energy sources is an important topic in the field of the combustion science. Fuels obtained from biomasses could become a valid alternative to the use of fossil fuels‚ also in the light of

using renewable energy to replace fossil fuel. In addition‚ renewable energy is generated by natural resources such as sunlight‚ wind and biomass which produce less or no pollution when generate energy. Furthermore‚ renewable energy will be demanded for approximately half of the worldwide electricity supplies to reduce CO2 emissions by 2050‚ which it is estimated by The International Energy Agency (Cited in Shi 2010). This essay will focus on two forms of renewable energies which are solar

CONSERVATION OF ENERGY OBJECTIVE The purpose of this experiment is to calculate the gravitational potential energy through experimental values‚ to calculate the theoretical potential energy given the experimental kinetic energy in an isolated system while also using the kinetic energy to find the spring constant‚ and to compare kinetic energies and potential energies in an isolated system to see if they are equivalent. METHOD To calculate the gravitational potential energy through experimental

mysterious dark energy that’s causing the expansion of the universe to accelerate? Is it some form of Einstein’s famous cosmological constant‚ or is it an exotic repulsive force‚ dubbed "quintessence‚" that could make up as much as three-quarters of the cosmos? Scientists from Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) and Dartmouth College believe there is a way to find out. | | | | The SuperNova/Acceleration Probe‚ SNAP‚ is a satellite designed to study dark energy through the discovery

Renewable Energy The use of renewable energy is probably one of the very few solutions for the energy needs of the future. It is considered as a form of safe‚ clean‚ and non terminating energy. In addition to all of that‚ renewable energy always brings marvelous economic benefits to any industry that uses it. Although renewable energy is expensive‚ time consuming‚ and less reliable sometimes‚ yet it still stands out as the solution for the energy needs of the future with respect to a safer environment
