,PURPOSE AND PERSPECTIVE OF THE CHAPTER XI XI XI XI XI




The purpose of this chapter is to examine the fundamental concepts of energy. As discussed i
Xi Xi Xi Xi Xi Xi Xi Xi Xi Xi Xi Xi Xi Xi Xi


n the chapter energy is a basic concept in all science and engineering disciplines. The concept
Xi Xi Xi Xi Xi Xi Xi Xi Xi Xi Xi Xi Xi Xi Xi


of energy conservation has also been explained in the chapter. Efforts of energy conservatio

n usually concentrate on either change to technology or lifestyle. Increased emphasis on ener
Xi Xi Xi Xi Xi Xi Xi Xi Xi Xi Xi Xi Xi


gy conservation is explained with the help of some convincing arguments.

Students should learn that the use of our energy resources is one of the major factors affectin

g the environment. Using energy resources may impact the environment, but so can extractin

g those resources, such as through deforestation, oil spillage, forest fires, and destruction of t

he natural landscape and vegetation. Later in the chapter, the worldwide consumption of ener

gy is explained with the help of graphs. Recall from the beginning of this chapter that energy is

not an end in itself but is valued for what we can do with it. The end uses of energy are tradit

ionally broken down into four sectors: transportation, industrial, residential, and commercial.

Students should learn about energy resources, their limitations, and their uses. Students must

know how large each energy resource is and how long it will last. Both of these questions ar

se means also understanding the consequences of its use. This chapter will introduce you to t

he science of energy use and energy technology.
