This is difficult to decide I think. It has been available for 50 years now - does that make it conventional? It is a well established and reliable energy source.

How do you distinguish between conventional and non conventional energy?

Conventional current represents the flow from positive to negative; following the direction that independent positively-charged particles would travel. (N.B: equal charges repel, opposite charges attract.) Non-conventional current represents the flow in the opposite direction (from negative to positive) and is the direction in which electrons would flow.


What source of energy is not renewable?

Energy from the burning of fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) is non-renewable.


What are the difference between conventional milling machine and CNC milling machine?

Non conventional Machining is a recent development in machining techniques. It is based on unconventional machining techniques using Laser beam, Electron beam, Electric arc etc. Conventional machining involves the direct contact of tool and work -piece, whereas unconventional machining does not require the direct contact of tool and wor piece. Conventional machining has many disadvantages like tool wear which are not present in Non-conventional machining. Examples : Electric arc machining, Laser cutting , electro discharge machining, plasma cutting etc Advantages of Non-conventional machining: 1) High accuracy and surface finish 2) no direct contact of tool and workpiece, so there is less/no wear 3) tool life is more 4 ) quieter operation Disadvantages of non-conventional machining: 1) high cost 2) complex set-up 3) skilled operator required

How convert conveniotional energy into non conventional energy?

You don't. There is no difference in the type of energy, between the "conventional" and "non-conventional" types. What makes energy conventional or non-conventional is the SOURCE - a conventional source being one that has been used for a long time.

Which is a better source of energy conventional and non conventional sources of energy?

Non-conventional sources of energy are generally considered better because they are renewable and have lower environmental impacts compared to conventional sources such as fossil fuels. Non-conventional sources like solar, wind, and hydro power offer sustainable alternatives for the future.

Is atomic energy a non conventional energy?

Yes, atomic energy is considered a non-conventional source of energy. It is derived from nuclear reactions, specifically fission or fusion processes, and is different from conventional sources like fossil fuels or renewable energy sources.


Is solar energy conventional energy?

No it is non conventional energy.


Difference between conventional and non conventional sources of energy?

There is no absolute hard and fast definition. But I would say coal, oil, and natural gas, and hydro are conventional. Wind, solar, tidal, and biomass non-conventional. I'm not sure about nuclear.
