The endeavor of this paper is to study the potential offered by the expenditure of a PV/T
(photovoltaic thermal) solar system in Tunisian households. This investigation is performed …

The article discusses the future developments of thermoeconomics, focusing on the current
works of the School of Zaragoza, which integrates the Second Law of Thermodynamics with …

The paper presents a thermoeconomic assessment of an expansion system applied in the
natural gas transportation process. The system consists of two turboexpander stages …

In the present work, the energy and exergy analysis of Kostolac power plant in Serbia is
presented. The primary objectives of this article are to analyze the system components …

Industrial Ecology involves the transformation of industrial processes from linear to closed
loop systems: matter and energy flows which were initially considered as wastes become …

Energy storage is regarded as a key factor to allow significant increase in the percentage of
electricity generation from renewables. One of the most critical aspects related with energy …

Energy, exergy and exergoeconomic analysis are often used for assessing large energy
conversion systems. However exergy and exergoeconomic analysis are rarely used when …

The performance of energy systems usually degrades gradually away from the best
operation conditions during continuous operation. Since the components in an energy …

Thermodynamic diagnostics aim to identify and act upon thermal system devices exhibiting
abnormal behaviour (malfunctions) in order to later, through the use of maintenance …

During continuous operation of energy systems, the performance of components will mostly,
gradually deviate away from the reference conditions due to performance degradation …
