Abstract
Plant operation under dynamic conditions has been analysed in previous papers; in this paper an exergetic and exergoeconomic analysis is carried out. The exergetic analysis is intended to identify the steps that mostly affect the overall plant exergy efficiency, so as to propose possible improvements. The exergoeconomic cost accounting is aimed at assigning a monetary value to each energy or material flow, thus providing a rational basis for price assignment. Both the exergetic and exergoeconomic analyses are applied to integral values of energy flows, comparing the results obtained in the summer and winter season. Finally, economic viability of the system in different context scenarios is discussed.
