In this study, energy and exergy analyses are carried out for the charging period of an ice-on-coil thermal energy storage system. The present model is developed using a thermal resistance network technique. First, the time-dependent variations of the predicted total stored energy, mass of ice,...

In this paper, the performance of wind energy system is assessed thermodynamically, from resource and technology perspectives. The thermodynamic characteristics of wind through energy and exergy analyses are considered and both energetic and exergetic efficiencies are studied. Wind speed is...

An exergy analysis of the Dora II geothermal power plant (DGPP) with 9.5 MW net power output is carried out by using actual plant data to evaluate plant performance and pinpoint the locations of exergy destructions/losses. It aims to determine exergy efficiencies, and exergy destructions in...
