Thermoeconomic analysis of an irreversible Stirling heat pump cycle [PDF]
The European Physical Journal B - Condensed Matter and Complex Systems, 2006 In this paper an analysis of the Stirling cycle in thermoeconomic terms is developed using the entropy generation. In the thermoeconomic optimization of an irreversible Stirling heat pump cycle the F function has been introduced to evaluate the optimum for the higher and lower sources temperature ratio in the cycle: this ratio represents the value ...
