Fig. 4. Effect of reference environment temperature on the exergy efficiency of
[1]
major plant components
boiler system where 65% of the fuel exergy input to the cycle
thermodynamically insignificant due to its low quality. In
terms of exergy destruction, the major loss was found in the
was destroyed. The major source of exergy destruction was
the boiler system where chemical reaction is the most
significant source of exergy destruction in a combustion
chamber. Exergy destruction in the combustion chamber is
mainly affected by the excess air fraction and the temperature
of the air at the inlet. The inefficiencies of combustion can be
reduced by preheating the combustion air and reducing the
airfuel ratio. Although the percent exergy destruction and the
exergy efficiency of each component in the system changed
with reference environment temperature, the main conclusion
stayed the same; the boiler is the major source of
irreversibilities in the system.
