Exergy analysis and performance enhancement of isopropanol-acetone-hydrogen chemical heat pump
Exergy loss analysis was conducted to identify the irreversibilityin each component of the isopropanol-acetone-hydrogen chemical heatpump (IAH-CHP). The results indicate that the highest irreversibilityon a system basis occurs in the distillation column. Moreover, theeffect of operating parameters on thermodynamic performances of theIAH-CHP was studied and the optimal conditions were obtained. Finally,the potential methods to reduce the irreversibility of the IAH-CHPsystem were investigated. It is found that reactive distillation isapromising alternative. The enthalpy and exergy efficiency of theIAH-CHP with reactive distillation increases by 24.1% and 23.2%, respectively.
