Exploring Exergy Concepts

When matter flows across the boundary of a control volume, an energy transfer by work, called flow work, occurs. The rate is where , p, and v denote the mass flow rate, pressure, and specific volume, respectively, of the matter crossing the boundary (see Sec. 4.4.2). Show that the exergy transfer accompanying flow work is given by where p₀ is the pressure at the dead state.
