Exergy analysis of a solar photovoltaic module [PDF]
PV energy is the direct conversion of solar radiation into electricity. In this paper, an analysis of the influence of parameters such as global irradiance or temperature in the performance of a PV installation has been carried out.

Exergy efficiency of ammonia production
© 2018 eceee and the authors, Stockholm. The chemical industry is responsible for roughly 6 % of global primary energy consumption and global greenhouse gas emissions, as well as a key fossil-fuel user (Cullen and Allwood 2010). Material and energy efficiency are the focus of industrial and policy decision-makers but are often pursued as separate ...

Exergy Efficiency of Interplanetary Transfer Vehicles [PDF]
In order to optimize systems, systems engineers require some sort of measure with which to compare vastly different system components. One such measure is system exergy, or the usable system work. Exergy balance analysis models provide a comparison of different system configurations, allowing systems engineers to compare different systems configuration

ABSTRACT To alleviate the impact of the instability of renewable energy power generation on the power grid, coal‐fired power plants (CFPPs) have to undertake peak shaving tasks, which puts forward high requirements for the flexibility of CFPPs. To enhance the flexibility of CFPPs to consume more renewable energy, this paper innovatively proposes a ...

Optimum exergy efficiency of solar collectors
An optimum exergy efficiency is derived for flat-plate solar collectors as a ratio of exergy delivery of the collector to the maximum output exergy obtainable. It is a function of the optimum mass flow rate through the collector, which itself is obtained through an optimization of the exergy delivery of the collector.
