Exergy Analysis and Thermoeconomics of Buildings: Design and Analysis for Sustainable Energy Systems

by Jose M Sala-Lizarraga, Ana Picallo, Ana Picallo-Perez

Quantifying exergy losses in the energy supply system of buildings reveals the potential for energy improvement, which cannot be discovered using conventional energy analysis. Thermoeconomics combines economic and thermodynamic analysis by applying the concept of cost (an economic concept) to exergy, as exergy is a thermodynamic property fit for this purpose, in that it combines the quantity of energy with its quality factor.
