Energy and exergy analysis of cassava starch drying in continuous vibrated fluidized bed dryer were carried out to assess the performance of the system in terms of energy utilization ratio, energy efficiency, exergy inflow and outflow, exergy loss, and exergetic efficiency. The results showed cassava starch has starch content 87%, degree of whiteness 95%, negative fiber content, sperichal granula with average diameter12.32 μm, orthorhombic crystal structure and crystal size 47.467 nm . Energy utilization and energy utilization ratio increased from 0.08 to 0.20 J/s and 0.35 to 0.4 as the drying temperature  increased from 50 to 70 oC. Energy efficiency increased from 13.80 % to 23.31 %, while exergy inflow, outflow, and losses increased from 4.701 to 14.678, 2.277 to 6.344, and 2.424 to 8.334 J/s respectively in the above temperature range. Exergetic efficiency decreased with increase in drying air temperature, while exergetic improvement potential increased with increased drying air temperature.

This paper took one 330MW unit boiler in one power plant as an example, then doing some research about the boiler system energy change through doing exergy analysis. After this, the exergy flow equation was established, the energy transfer, utilize and loss of the thermal power plant production was revealed, the exergy efficiency of the boiler was defined. So the paper can provide a basis for energy utilization of power plant.

An surface water heat pump (SWHP) system and some solar domestic hot water (SDHW) systems were constructed in a building stock located in Xiangtan for the purpose of energy saving and environmental improvement. This study aims to evaluate the energy and exergy efficiencies of renewable energy utilization based on energy and exergy analysis. We found the energy and exergy efficiencies of the SWHP system in heating mode to be 395% and 17.78%, respectively. The energy and exergy efficiencies for the SDHW systems were found to be 34.96% and 17.5%, respectively. Some measures for the exergy efficiency improvement are discussed in this paper.

This study was motivated by the difficulties to assess the aerothermodynamic effects of heat transfer on the performance of turbocharger turbine by only looking at the global performance parameters, and by the lack of efforts to quantify the physical mechanisms associated with heat transfer. In this study, we aimed to investigate the sensitivity of performance to heat loss, to quantify the aerothermodynamic mechanisms associated with heat transfer and to study the available energy utilization by a turbocharger turbine. Exergy analysis was performed based on the predicted three-dimensional flow field by detached eddy simulation (DES). Our study showed that at a specified mass flow rate, (1) pressure ratio drop is less sensitive to heat loss as compared to turbine power reduction, (2) turbine power drop due to heat loss is relatively insignificant as compared to the exergy lost via heat transfer and thermal irreversibilities, and (3) a single-stage turbine is not an effective machine to harvest all the available exhaust energy in the system.
