520 # # |a Many people, professionals and non-professionals alike, recognize that it is of critical importance to solve global energy and environmental issues. For this purpose, it is essential to have a scientific understanding of what is meant by the energy issue and the environmental issue. The concept of exergy is a scientific concept that exactly fits. The concept of energy is a scientifically-well established concept, namely to be conserved . Then the question is: what is really consumed? Exergy: Theory and Applications in the Built Environment� is dedicated to answer this fundamental question by discussing the theory of exergy and by demonstrating its use extensively to describe a variety of systems in particular for built-environmental conditioning. Our immediate environmental space works within the flow of energy and matter in an exergy-entropy process, and the built environment can be designed with these energy�and environmental issues in mind. Exergy: Theory and Applications in the Built Environment introduces readers who are not familiar with thermodynamics to the concept of exergy with a variety of discussions on the built-environmental space such as heating, cooling, lighting, and others. Readers, including students, researchers, planners, architects and engineers, will obtain a better picture of a sustainable built environment.
