10 results about "Exergy" patented technology

In thermodynamics, the exergy of a system is the maximum useful work possible during a process that brings the system into equilibrium with a heat reservoir, reaching maximum entropy. When the surroundings are the reservoir, exergy is the potential of a system to cause a change as it achieves equilibrium with its environment. Exergy is the energy that is available to be used. After the system and surroundings reach equilibrium, the exergy is zero. Determining exergy was also the first goal of thermodynamics. The term "exergy" was coined in 1956 by Zoran Rant (1904–1972) by using the Greek ex and ergon meaning "from work", but the concept was developed by J. Willard Gibbs in 1873.

Apparatus for thermal performance monitoring and safe operation of a nuclear power plant

This invention relates to the monitoring and diagnosing of the nuclear power plant for both its thermal performance and safety using the Neutronics / calorimetrics / Verification (NCV) Method. A key feature of the NCV Method is its ability to convert nuclear power, dependent on neutron flux, to an energy flow. The descriptive vehicle for nuclear phenomena lies with Second Law exergy analysis, treating its MeV release as a thermodynamic potential. Such potential is a Free Exergy consisting of both recoverable and irreversible portions. In transference to a coolant, the recoverable release produces an exergetic increase, an available power ({dot over (m)}Δg), the fluid exergy's TRef being explicitly computed from an Inertial Conversation Factor (Ξ). Ξ also directly transforms the recoverable nuclear release to an explicit, and consistent, core thermal power ({dot over (m)}Δh).
