Exergetic efficiency as a basis for durability analysis and prognosis
International Journal of Hydrogen Energy, 2011Abstract The present paper provides a thermodynamic foundation and interpretation of the concept of exergetic efficiency. The interpretation focuses on solid oxide fuel cell behavior, specifically the impedance of SOFCs as an indicator of exergetic efficiency.

Exergetic efficiency of comminution of solid substances
Fuel, 1984Abstract Based on literature data, a short description of a method for determining the internal energy increase of material due to enlarging its surface area in a comminution process, is given. An exergy balance of the comminution of a solid substance, has been discussed.

Exergetic efficiency optimization of a refrigeration system with multi-irreversibilities
Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part C: Journal of Mechanical Engineering Science, 2006Exergetic efficiency optimization has been carried out for a refrigeration system with multi-irreversibilities, including finite-rate heat transfer, internal dissipation of the working fluid and heat leak between the heat reservoirs. The exergetic efficiency is defined as the ratio of the rate of exergy output to the rate of exergy input in the ...

Exergetic efficiency optimization for an irreversible Brayton refrigeration cycle
International Journal of Thermal Sciences, 2005Abstract Exergetic efficiency optimization that combines exergy concept and finite-time thermodynamic theory has been carried out for an irreversible Brayton refrigeration cycle. Multi-irreversibilities considered in the system include finite rate heat transfer, internal dissipation of the working fluid and heat leak between heat reservoirs ...

Exergetic efficiency of NF, RO and EDR desalination plants
Desalination, 2016Abstract Exergetic analysis of a 2250 gpm brackish water desalination plant in California was performed using its operational data. The plant contains nanofiltration, reverse osmosis and electrodialysis reversal units subject to the same source water. The correct definition of exergetic efficiency for such systems was discussed.

ASME 2007 Energy Sustainability Conference, 2007 This study investigates thermodynamic parameters and exergetic efficiency of the Salihli geothermal district heating system (SGDHS) in Manisa, Turkey for 2005/2006 heating season. The thermodynamic parameters considered are as follows: (i) fuel depletion rate, (ii) relative irreversibility, (iii) productivity lack, and (iv) exergetic factor.
