Overall objective

Discover the stakes of energy production and consumption in the world and in France. Analysis of the combined cycle of electricity production from natural gas (CCG). Introduction to the global balance equations of momentum, matter and energy

Course content and organisation

Pedagogy according to a Problem-Based Learning (PBL).

All the sessions are involved in the study and analysis of the GCC (combined cycle gas power plant) as an illustration of an electricity production method.

1- short presentation of the department and the GCC. Group study of the GCC, and answer to a question

2- group restitution, discussions.

3- visit of the EDF GCC in Blénod (54)

4 and 5 - Global momentum balances - application to the GCC

6 and 7 - Global balances of matter and energy - application to the GCC and to a process of algae culture (biomass energy production)
