Abstract
MONROY, Edwin; RODRIGUEZ, Kellys and BASTIDAS, Marlon. Exergetic assessment for technologies applied to non-conventional energy sources. Prospect. [online]. 2016, vol.14, n.1, pp.7-14. ISSN 1692-8261. https://doi.org/10.15665/rp.v14i1.645.
The main efforts for the energetic systems assessment have been focused to conventional technologies, especially for thermal energy systems; with methodologies extensively developed and important results for researchers of this area and the consumer communities. However, emergent energy systems are especially obtained from no thermal systems, taking advantage of Energy Non-conventional Sources (ENCS) derived from renewable resource with low residual generation; that means, there's a huge energetic assessment methodology but it doesn't apply for technologies which use renewable resources. This research shows there's a main topic in the conventional energetic systems assessment, the nonconventional and even hybrid systems. The methodology for assessing thermal systems comes from the exergy, which is generated of an independent way to the kind of conversion technology and the primary energetic resource; therefore exergoeconomic factors can be compared through different kinds of exergetic generation technology. The main result aimed at construction of a theoretical factor which let to involve and compare simultaneously energetic systems independently to the required resource. This factor proposes maturity indicators of the technology based on external information to the system, applied in a same contour for the assessment.
