Title: Alternative sources of energies


1
Alternative sources of energies
  • return to the
    synopsis

2
SYNOPSIS
  • What renewable energy ?
  • History of various energies
  • Définition
  • return to the synopsis


3
What renewable energy?
  • A renewable energy is a source of energy which
    is renewed rather quickly to be regarded as
    inexhaustible.
  • renewable energies result from regular or
    constant natural phenomena caused by the stars,
    mainly the Sun (radiation), but also the Moon
    (tide) and the Earth (geothermal energies)

4
History of various energies
  • The combustion of wood
  • Hydraulic power
  • Wind power
  • Solar energy passivates
  • Geothermic energy
  • Retour au sommaire

5
The combustion of wood
  • Wood used as a fuel is meant to be
  • heated
  • cooked
  • smoke food
  • return to the synopsis

6
Hydraulic power
  • Today the water power is useful
  • to produce electricity
  • example - that of water mills placed along
    rivers
  • - the
    stopping
  • return to the synopsis

7
wind power
  • Origin
  • - windmills allowed to pump
    water or to actuate grinding stones to grind the
    grain.
  • - wind mills of pumping smaller
    and having more blades than a traditional mill,
    they turn more quickly.
  • return to the synopsis

8
Passive solar energy
  • Solar energy was for a long time used like

  • source of energy in architecture.

  • allowing the realization of solar houses
  • return to the synopsis

9
Geothermic energy
  • Greeks and Romans of antiquity already knew
    the use of geothermal energy, but also wells
    province which they built to air-condition their
    dwellings.
  • return to the synopsis

10
Various environmental technologies
  • Energy of plants
  • Energy of the sun
  • Energy of water
  • Return to the synopsis

11
Energy of the plants
  • It is about solar energy stored under organic
    form thanks to the photosynthesis. This energy is
    exploited(run) by combustion.
  • This energy is considered as renewable if we
    admit that the burned quantities do not
    exceed(irritate) the produced quantities. (Ex
    wood)
  • return to the synopsis

12
Energy of the sun
  • Thermal solar energy heat production, very
    profitable for the heating in the sunny regions.
  • Thermodynamics Energy production of vapor from
    the heat of the sun by concentration, then
    conversion of the vapor in electricity
  • photovoltaic energy electricity production from
    the light, notably by means of solar panels.
  • Solar energy passive Energy direct use of the
    light for the heating
  • return to the synopsis

13
Energy of water
  • Energy of the waves use the tidal power of the
    movement of the waves
  • Energy maremotrice exit of the movement of
    water created by the tides (variations of the sea
    level, currents of tide) 
  • Energy hydrolienne The water turbine use the sea
    currents  
  • Energy marethermic produced by exploiting the
    difference in temperature between surface waters
    and deep water of the oceans 
  • Energy osmotic The ionic diffusion caused by the
    fresh water arriving in the salted water of the
    sea is source of energy.
  • return to the synopsis

14
Définition
  • Photosynthesis  reaction taking place in plants
    in the chloroplasts where the solar energy is
    used to oxydize water and reduce the carbon
    dioxyde to synthesize organic substances
    (carbohydrates).
  • Combustion exothermic reaction between a fuel
    and a combustive.
