Advanced Exergy Analysis for a Solar Double Stage Absorption Chiller
Solar driven absorption chiller technology as an alternative mechanism for cooling has been the focus of tremendous recent interest due to its potential advantages for energy conservation and the environment benefits. However, the comparatively lower coefficient of performance (COP) of these systems compared to the COP of the electric chillers has ...

Thermal analysis and optimization of a heat regenerator composed of two coupled moving bed heat exchangers [PDF]
This work presents a study to optimize the performance of a heat regenerator composed by two coupled moving bed heat exchangers (MBHE). A MBHE is used to recover heat, from a hot gas stream, and the other one is used to preheat an air stream.

Advanced exergy analysis of an electricity-generating facility using natural gas
Abstract This paper deals with the performance assessment of an electricity generation facility located in the Eskisehir Industry Estate Zone in Turkey using advanced exergy analysis method. The exergy efficiency of the system is determined to be 40.2% while the total exergy destruction rate of the system is calculated to be 78.242 MW.
