Waste heat




Waste heat refers to viscosity). Heat production in bearings can be minimised by the use of rolling-element bearings.

Conversion of energy

Whereas mechanical drives can be designed to run smoothly, with little dissipation of energy to heat, machines for Second law of thermodynamics).

The electrical efficiency of cooling tower to reject the waste heat into the atmosphere.

Cogeneration

Waste of the by-product heat is avoided if a cogeneration system is used. Limitations to the use of by-product heat arise due to difficulties in heat transport and heat storage.
