In this regard, several key topics ranging from the basics of the thermodynamic concepts to advanced exergy analysis techniques in a wide range of applications are covered as outlined in the contents. Offers comprehensive coverage of exergy and its applications, along with the most up-to-date information in the area with recent developments. Connects exergy with three essential areas in terms of energy, environment and sustainable development. Provides a number of illustrative examples, practical applications, and case studies UR - http://repository.fue.edu.eg/xmlui/handle/123456789/4026 ER -
