Exergoeconomic evaluation of a ground-source heat pump food dryer at varying dead state temperatures
(Journal of Cleaner Production, 2017)
This study deals with exergoeconomic analysis of a ground-source heat pump food dryer through the specific exergy costing method for the first time. Moreover, variations of the exergetic and exergoeconomic performance ...
Assessment of cost sources and improvement potentials of a ground-source heat pump food drying system through advanced exergoeconomic analysis method
(Energy, 2017)
Advanced exergoeconomic analysis, the so-called new exergetic approach combined with the economic analysis, is applied to a ground-source heap pump (GSHP) drying system in this study. The thermodynamic inefficiencies and ...
Splitting the exergy destructions of an olive oil refining plant into avoidable and unavoidable parts based on actual operational data
(International Journal of Exergy, 2016)
This study focused on assessing the performance of an olive oil refinery plant (with an oil capacity of 5595 kg/h) located in Izmir, Turkey. The analysis was performed with the use of actual operational data of the system ...
Application of conventional and advanced exergy analyses to evaluate the performance of a ground-source heat pump (GSHP) dryer used in food drying
(Energy Conversion and Management, 2014)
Inefficiencies in an energy system can be quantitatively determined through conventional exergy analysis while sources of the irreversibilities and real improvement potential can be deducted using a relatively new method ...
Advanced exergoeconomic evaluation of a heat pump food dryer
(Biosystems Engineering, 2014)
In this study, the results of conventional and advanced exergoeconomic analyses of the performance of a pilot scale air-source heat pump food dryer were compared for the first time. The contributions of the components of ...
Splitting the exergy destruction into avoidable and unavoidable parts of a gas engine heat pump (GEHP) for food drying processes based on experimental values
(Energy Conversion and Management, 2013)
Some limitations in a conventional exergy analysis may be significantly reduced through an advanced exergy analysis. In this regard, the latter is a very useful tool to assess the real potential for improving a system ...
Performance assessment and optimization of industrial pasta drying
(International Journal of Energy Research, 2013)
Drying is a high-energy-intensive operation and an important step in the pasta production. In this study, exergy analysis of a four-step drying system in a farfalle pasta production line using actual operational data ...
Advanced Exergy Analysis of a Heat Pump Drying System Used in Food Drying
(Drying Technology, 2013)
Exergy analysis has been used as a powerful tool to study and optimize various types of energy systems. However, the methodology of splitting the exergy destructions (the so-called advanced exergy analysis) allows for a ...
Enhanced exergetic analysis of an olive oil refining plant: evaluation of the first and second level of exergy destructions
(INDERSCIENCE ENTERPRISES LTD, 2019)
Enhanced exergy analysis is built up as a novel modality to specify the origins of irreversibilities and to concentrate substantial improvement potential of components. The scope of this paper is to apply the enhanced ...
