Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

In the analysis and design of energy systems, techniques are often used which combine scientific disciplines (mainly thermodynamics) with economic disciplines (mainly cost accounting) to achieve optimum designs. For energy conversion devices, cost accounting conventionally considers unit costs based on energy. Costs are better distributed among outputs if cost accounting is based on the thermodynamic quantity exergy, partly because exergy, but not energy, is often a consistent measure of economic value. In this article, we critically review relations between exergy and economics, and exergy-based economic methods (exergoeconomics, thermoeconomics, exergy-based pricing, EXCEM analysis, analysis based on the ratio of thermodynamic loss to capital cost). Most such methods aim to determine appropriate allocations of economic resources for optimal design and operation, and/or economic feasibility and profitability.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
