energy availability and irreversibility

The sources of energy can be divided into two groups i.e., high grade energy (mechanical work, electrical energy, water power, wind power) and low grade energy (heat or thermal energy, heat derived from nuclear fission or combustion of fossil fuels). That part of the low grade energy which is available for, conversion is referred to as available energy, while the part which is not available is known as unavailable energy.

Availability: When a system is subjected to a process from its original state to dead state the maximum amount of useful work that can be achieved under ideal conditions is known as available energy or availability of the system.

Wmax = AE = Qxy – T0(Sy-Sx)

Unavailable Energy:  UAE = T0(Sy-Sx)

where, Sx and Sy are the entropy at x and y, respectively.

The Available Energy (AE) is also known as exergy and the Unavailable Energy (UAE) as anergy. The energy which cannot be utilised for doing useful work is called unavailable energy. Irreversibility is equivalent to energy destroyed, hence also known as energy destruction consider the example given below.

DECREASE IN AVAILABILITY WHEN HEAT TRANSFER THROUGH FINITE TEMPERATURE DIFFERENCE

Consider a reversible heat engine operating between Tand T0.

Q1 = T1. Δs

W = AE= (T1 – T0)Δs

Let us now consider heat Q1 is transferred through a finite temperature difference.

Q1 = T1 Δs = T’1 . Δs’

Δs’ > Δs

Q2 = T0 Δs → Initial UAE

Q’2 = T0 Δs’ ⇒ Afterward UAE

Q’2 > Q2

W’ =Q’1 – Q’2

W’ = T’1 Δs’ – T0Δs’

W’ = (T’1 – T0) Δs’

W = (T1 – T0) Δs

Hence increase in UAE and the shaded portion represent increase in UAE.

SECOND LAW EFFICIENCY: Second law efficiency is the ratio of the exergy recovered to the exergy spent. OR It is the ratio of actual work produced to the max work produced under reversible condition. Consider the case of heat engine.

The second law efficiency is measure of the performance of a device relative to its performance under reversible conditions.

EXERGY OF A CLOSED SYSTEM : Consider a piston cylinder device that contains a fluid of mass m at temperature T and pressure P. The system is then allowed to undergo a differential change of state during which volume changes by dV and heat  is transferred from the system to surroundings.

For change of exergy from state 1 to state 2.

Φ1 = (E1 – E0) + P0(V1 – V0) – T0(S1 – S0)

Φ2 = (E2 – E0) + P0(V2 – V0) – T0(S2 – S0)

Φ1 – ϕ2 = Energy at state 1 – Energy at state 2

Φ1 – ϕ= (E1 – E2) + P0 (V1 – V2) – T0(S1 – S2)

EXERGY OF OPEN SYSTEM: A flowing fluid has an additional form of energy, called flow energy, which is the energy needed to maintain flow in Pipe.

Wflow = PV

Exergy associated with system is 

Φflowing fluid = ϕnon flow fluid + ϕflow

Φflowing fluid = (E1 – E0) + P0(V1 – V0) – T0(S1 – S0) +P1V1 – P0V0

Φflowing= U1- U0 + (KE)1 - (KE)0 + (PE)1 – (PE)0 + P1V1 – P0V0 – T0 (S1 – S0)

Φflowing fluid = (U1 + P1V1) – (U0 + P0V0) – T0(S1 – S0) + (KE)1 – (KE)0 + (PE)1 – (PE)0

Φflowing = (H1 – H0) – T0 (S1 – S0) + (KE)1 – (KE)0 + (PE)1 – (PE)2
