Exergy (Availability) - Work potential, maximum useful work The term “availability” was made popular in the States by MIT School of Engineering in the 1940s. An equivalent work “exergy” was introduced in Europe in the 1950s. Dead State A system is said to be in the dead state when it is in thermodynamic equilibrium with its surroundings.
Exergy At the dead state, 1. A system is at the same temperature and pressure of its surroundings (in thermal and mechanical equilibrium). 2. There are no unbalanced magnetic, electrical and surface tension effects between the system and its surroundings (mechanical equilibrium). 3. It has zero kinetic and potential energy relative to its surroundings (zero velocity and zero elevation above a reference level).
Exergy At the dead state, 4. It does not react with the surroundings (chemically inert). Work = f (initial state, process path, final state) To maximize the work output ►the process to be executed is reversible. ►the final state is a dead state.
Exergy A system will deliver the maximum possible work as it undergoes a reversible process from the specified initial state to the state of its surroundings, i.e., the dead state. Exergy does not represent the amount of work that a work-producing device will actually deliver upon installation. Rather, it represents the upper limit on the amount of work a device can deliver without violating any thermodynamic laws.
Exergy The difference between exergy and the actual work delivered by a device represents the room Engineers have for improvement. Exergy of a system at a specified state depends on the conditions of the surroundings (the dead state) as well as the properties of the system. Exergy is a property of the combined system (the system and its surroundings) and not of the system alone.
