About the Book

The subject of this book is the exergy analysis of the efficiency of processes involving energy and matter transformations. Efficiency is one of the most important criteria used in evaluating the performance of all types of processing plants; in particular those of the energy and chemical industries. The beauty of the exergetic approach to thermodynamic analysis is that it permits a universally applicable definition of efficiency and is free of contradictions in its treatment of numerous and diverse systems. The book provides the reader with the quantitative methods and calculations of efficiency considered to be applicable to different systems and their components. Methods, procedures and instructions for using the efficiency analysis in optimizing the performance of thermal, chemical and other industrial plants are also given. Numerous examples are used in the book to aid the reader in understanding the concepts of efficiency, exergy and their use.

Table of Contents:
1. Coefficients of Energy Transformation (CET) and Exergy Efficiency (CEE) for Different Industrial Systems. Thermodynamic approaches to evaluating system performance. Efficiency of mechanics, hydraulics an electrical technics. Coefficient of energy transformation (CET) and efficiency. 2. The Concepts and Values Needed for Determination of CEE. Energy and exergy. The particularities of the notions of "environment " and "surroundings" in exergy analysis. The exergy of steady matter flow. Chemical exergy and its parts. The exergy of industrial fuels.
