Engineering Evaluation and
Implementation, 2e
Francis Vanek, Louis Albright,
and Largus Angenent
Published: 3/26/2012
ISBN: 978-0-07-178778-9
Energy Systems Engineering Evaluation and
Implementation, Second Edition presents a
clear, well-organized, and technically useful
look at the timely and many-faceted problem
and challenge of developing and maintaining
energy systems in a fast-changing world. Te
theme of the book is that an understanding
of the three major primary energy sources
renewable, fossil, and nuclear placed on
a common footing and set in comparable
terms can both help you understand
individual technologies and the competitive
context in which these sources exist today.
Treatment of each technological area starts
with information about ecological, social,
and economic context. Te book then uses
the basic science and engineering knowledge
common to most upper-level engineering and
science undergraduates, graduate students,
and professionals to quantitatively evaluate
the function, capacity, efciency, and cost-
efectiveness of the technology in question.
