The irreversibilities (exergy destruction) within a component of an energy conversion system can be represented by two parts. The first part depends on the inefficiencies of the considered component while the second part depends on the system structure and the inefficiencies of the other...

Splitting the exergy destruction into endogenous/exogenous and unavoidable/avoidable parts has many advantages for the detailed analysis of energy conversion systems. Endogenous is the exergy destruction obtained when all other system components are ideal and the component being considered...

The thermodynamic inefficiencies associated with any energy conversion process are expressed by the exergy destruction and the exergy losses associated with the process. Combustion processes exhibit very high thermodynamic inefficiencies caused by chemical reaction, heat transfer, friction, and...

A conventional exergy analysis can highlight the main components having high thermodynamic inefficiencies, but cannot consider the interactions among components or the true potential for the improvement of each component. By splitting the exergy destruction into endogenous/exogenous and...
