Exergy destruction calculation and analysis for a Coal drying system

open access: yesIOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 2020
Abstract A coal drying system was modelled and the calculation methodology was developed to calculate the system. Then the system performance was obtained and the exergy destruction and loss in the system is 70.5 kW. The reasons of exergy destruction were tried to be explained from the perspective of energy grade.
