Course description
1. While confirming the basis of thermodynamics, take up the energy use of sunlight and biomass as its application. We will discuss technical issues concerning natural energy utilization and issues for system construction. 2. Express the process related to biomass production and preparation as a mathematical model and understand its analysis and system control.
This subject is offered as a specialized subject in the Department of Agriculture, and is a required compulsory subject for completing the Food and Agriculture Information Engineering Program.
Expected Learning
1-1. Being able to understand the nature and characteristics of solar heat
1-2. Ability to understand biomass energy conversion technology and utilization system
2. Being able to mathematically describe the processes involved in production and environmental control
