,PURPOSE AND PERSPECTIVE OF THE CHAPTER ZZ ZZ ZZ ZZ ZZ




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


in the chapter energy is a basic concept in all science and engineering disciplines. The conce
zz zz zz zz zz zz zz zz zz zz zz zz zz zz zz


pt of energy conservation has also been explained in the chapter. Efforts of energy conserva
zz zz zz zz zz zz zz zz zz zz zz zz zz zz


tion usually concentrate on either change to technology or lifestyle. Increased emphasis on e
zz zz zz zz zz zz zz zz zz zz zz zz zz


nergy conservation is explained with the help of some convincing arguments.
zz zz zz zz zz zz zz zz zz zz




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


ng the environment. Using energy resources may impact the environment, but so can extract
zz zz zz zz zz zz zz zz zz zz zz zz zz


ing those resources, such as through deforestation, oil spillage, forest fires, and destruction
zz zz zz zz zz zz zz zz zz zz zz zz zz


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


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


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


are traditionally broken down into four sectors: transportation, industrial, residential, and com
zz zz zz zz zz zz zz zz zz zz zz


mercial.
Students should learn about energy resources, their limitations, and their uses. Students mus
zz zz zz zz zz zz zz zz zz zz zz zz


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


are difficult to answer because we must make assumptions about future technologies for the
zz zz zz zz zz zz zz zz zz zz zz zz zz zz


extraction of resources, future fuel prices, and consumption growth rates. Understanding ener
zz zz zz zz zz zz zz zz zz zz zz


gy use means also understanding the consequences of its use. This chapter will introduce y
zz zz zz zz zz zz zz zz zz zz zz zz zz zz


ou to the science of energy use and energy technology.
