Concentrated Solar Power Systems
Exergy efficiency is a measure of how effectively a system converts available energy into useful work while minimizing energy losses. It reflects the quality and usefulness of energy in performing work, contrasting with energy efficiency which often focuses solely on quantity. In the context of thermodynamic cycles, particularly the Rankine cycle used in concentrated solar power systems, exergy efficiency provides insights into how well the system is functioning and the potential for improvement.
