Abstract

Maximum power performance of an endoreversible non-isothermal chemical engine (NICE) with simultaneous heat and mass transfer is investigated in this paper. The heat and mass transfer processes are assumed to obey Onsager equations in linear irreversible thermodynamics. The power output of the endoreversible NICE as well as the corresponding vector efficiency [See Eq. (13) in this paper for its definition] are obtained analytically. Special cases for an endoreversible Carnot heat engine with the linear phenomenological heat transfer law [q∝Δ(T−1)] and an endoreversible isothermal chemical engine with the linear mass transfer law [g∝Δ(μ)] are further derived based on the general optimization results. Some numerical examples are provided, and the effects of changes of absorbed energy flux rate, mass flux rate, and heat and mass transfer phenomenological coefficients on the optimization results are analyzed. The results show that there are optimal absorbed energy flux rate and optimal mass flux rate for the power output of the endoreversible NICE to approach to its maximum; the relationship between the power output of the endoreversible NICE and its vector efficiency is paraboloid.
