Definition of Exergy
Exergy is the amount of work obtainable
when some matter is brought to a state of
thermodynamic equilibrium with the
common components of the natural
surroundings by means of reversible
processes, involving interaction only with
the above mentioned components of
nature [Szargut et al 1988].

The First Law states that in every cyclic
process either work is converted into heat
or heat is converted into work. In this
sense it makes no distinction between
work and heat except to indicate a means
of measuring each in terms of equivalent
units. Once this technique of
measurement is established, work and
heat become entirely equivalent for all
applications of the First Law.
Keenan, 1941 18
Availability
The Second Law, on the other hand,
marks the distinction between these two
quantities by stating that heat from a
single source whose temperature is
uniform cannot be completely converted
into work in any cyclic process, whereas
work from a single source can always be
completely converted into heat.
19
Keenan, 1941
Availability
The efforts of the engineer are very largely
directed toward the control of processes
so as to produce the maximum amount of
work, or so as to consume the minimum
amount of it. The success of these efforts
can be measured by comparing the
amount of work produced in a given
process with the maximum possible
amount of work that could be produced in
the course of a change of state identical
with that which occurs in the process. 20

Entropy is a Property
Entropy is a measure of something lost
S = 0, reversible process
S > 0, irreversible process
T T0
E2 = E1 +Q
B2 = B1 + Q(1-T0/T)
S = (1/T0)(Q Q + Q(T0/T)) = Q/T
S = Q/T
24
Example, Work Interaction
W
E2 = E1 +W
B2 = B1 + W
S = (W - W) = 0

Answers for 1 & 2
Consider the process in two stages; 1) you transfer heat in, and
2) You transfer heat and work out. Use the result from Carnot to
Show that the change in entropy is zero. This leads to the result that
The exergy lost is also zero.

when B = Bph + Bch = 0
this is the dead state
