This paper proposes a method of thermoeconomic diagnosis based on the concepts of the fuel impact formula and the analytical reconciliation method. Such a method is able to detect, isolate and quantify individually the causes in terms of the additional fuel consumption, when internal malfunctions or control deviations occur. Commonly, any diagnosis method requires the definition of a Test State Condition...
Increasing concerns about the environmental impact and unreasonable consumption of natural resources for energy production and conversion processes have led to analyze thoroughly the current state of energy systems development. Hence, what is required is not only producing with the maximum cost effectiveness, but also minimizing the emission of pollutants and waste disposals, too. Unavoidably, in...
Among the possible applications of thermoeconomics, the most promising one is perhaps the diagnosis of the operation of actual energy systems. Diagnosis can be considered as the art of discovering and interpreting signs of malfunction and of quantifying their effects in terms of additional consumption of resources. In the sphere of energy systems a good diagnosis requires: (i) the application of...
