Course Overview:\u00a0<\/strong>Non Conventional resources include solar energy, wind, falling water, the heat of the earth\u00a0(geothermal), plant materials (biomass), waves, ocean currents, temperature differences in the The policy maker concerned with development of the national grid system will focus\u00a0on those resources that have established themselves commercially and are cost effective for\u00a0on grid applications. Such commercial technologies include hydroelectric power, solar\u00a0energy, fuels derived from biomass, wind energy and geothermal energy. Wave, ocean\u00a0current, ocean thermal and other technologies that are in the research or early commercial\u00a0stage, as well as non-electric Non Conventional energy technologies, such as solar water\u00a0heaters and geothermal heat pumps, are also based on Non Conventional resources, but\u00a0outside the scope of this Manual.<\/p>\n Course Objectives:<\/strong><\/p>\n Course Outcomes:<\/strong><\/p>\n UNIT – I:\u00a0<\/strong>Statistics on conventional energy sources and supply in developing countries, Definition Concepts\u00a0of NCES, Limitations of RES, Criteria for assessing the potential of NCES.\u00a0Classification of NCES – Solar, Wind, Geothermal, Bio-mass, Ocean Energy Sources,\u00a0comparison of these energy sources.<\/p>\n UNIT – II:\u00a0<\/strong>Solar Energy-Energy available form Sun, Solar radiation data, Solar energy conversion into UNIT – III :<\/strong>\u00a0Wind energy conversion, General formula -Lift and Drag- Basis of wind energy conversion –\u00a0Effect of density, frequency variances, angle of attack, and wind speed.
