Avaliação energética e exergética do processo psicrométrico: resfriamento evaporativo.

Abstract

Through a Psychrometric Processes System Generator (SIGEP); it was realized the energetic and exergetic evaluations of the evaporative air cooling psychrometric process by using the comparison between the 1st Law, and the 1st and 2st Law combined thermodynamic efficiencies. It was also observed that the psychrometric efficiency, very common among agricultural engineers, it is not an appropriate parameter to evaluate this psychrometric process.
