This is the fourth edition of the textbook “Energy” to _ill the need for a comprehensive textbook on energy. Importance of energy and its effect on everyday life are undisputable. Consequently, many institutions today offer either energy minor or energy major programs. And “Energy Engineering” is emerging as one of the recent engineering disciplines. This textbook is an undergraduate textbook for students with diverse backgrounds and interested to know more on energy and pursue a degree on energy. The fourth edition discusses five major aspects of energy that are: energy production, energy conversion, energy storage, energy conservation, and energy coupling in separate chapters. Basic definitions in Chap. 1 and the primary and the secondary energy sources are discussed in Chap. 2. Chapter 3 discusses mechanical and electrical energies that are types of major energies other than heat and work. Chapter 4 discusses internal energy and enthalpy. Chapter 5 discusses mass and energy balance equations, heat of reaction, and heat transfer. Chapter 6 discusses energy production mainly using closed and open cycles of heat engines. Chapter 7 discusses the energy conversion with an emphasis on the ways to improve the energy conversion efficiency. Chapter 8 discusses the energy storage by various means. Chapter 9 discusses the energy conservation and recovery. Chapter 10 briefly introduces energy coupling with examples from biological systems. Chapter 11 focuses on sustainability and life cycle analysis in energy systems to emphasize the implications of the use of energy on the environment, society, and economy. Chapters 12 discusses renewable energy types and some important production processes. Chapter 13 energy management economics discusses the importance of energy balance within the context of energy management and economics. This edition has two new chapters: Chap. 14 discusses decarbonization within the context of climate change. The global efforts in reducing the greenhouse gas emissions in industry and the tools achieving decarbonizations are discussed. In Chap. 15, energy transition is discussed by means of electrification and the role of renewable energy. Most of the chapters contain fully solved example problems and practice problems to support the easy understanding and applications of the topics discussed. It is obvious that the present textbook will mature further in reoccurring editions based on the technological developments and suggestions from the students and colleagues. I want to sincerely thank those who helped me in preparing, developing, and improving this new edition.
