This book offers an in-depth thermodynamic analysis of the operation of
the main types of thermal power plants. An exergetic analysis adds to and
substantially enriches the basic energetic approach. The first chapter introduces
the concept of exergy, highlights its subtle nature and develops a
methodology to apply it to the analysis of power plant operation. The following
chapters are a series of monographs devoted to steam plants, gas
turbines, combined cycle plants, internal combustion engines and cogeneration
plants. The systematic and comparative presentation of the energy
and exergy balances of these plants constitutes an original approach which
hopefully will prove of interest.
