Learning Outcomes
- Be able to apply an exergy balance to any kind of system, open or closed, housing chemical reactions or not.
- Apply the relevant exergy related performance criteria and draw the resulting conclusions about the actual performance of the system and the possible ways to improve it.
Content
• The exergy and anergy concepts and their relation with energy.
• Applications of exergy and energy balances to closed or open systems, housing or not internal reactive processes : heat engines, refrigeration machines, heat exchangers, internal combustion engines, HVAC systems;
• Exergy efficiency and effectiveness of energy systems;
• Environment, sustainability and use of natural resources, from the standpoint of exergy analysis.
