Use of the exergy method to assess the energy efficiency of technical facilities

Improvement of technical objects and systems energy efficiency, the most widespread which are heat engines, is an urgent task, for solution it necessary to use various methods. The review scientific publications allows single out exergic analysis based on balance power installations different purpose design as one basic universal methods efficiency estimation. Substantiation universality method basis its theoretical preconditions given. reserve increase in thermal engines rational secondary resources. With estimation prospects resources heat-carrying agents cooling systems) calculation pump working a reverse Rankine cycle executed. On executed calculations, conclusion about given devices, including replacement independent boilers ship made. article contains proposals complex with traditional systems. Advantages such approach shown, possibilities perspective fields application determined. data obtained result conducted research shows that recycling turbines pumps modern designs promising increasing fuel utilization factor reciprocating gas turbine engines.
