Summary

Energy transformation occurs if, in contrast to simple energy conversion, a part of the available energy is transformed into a higher quality. The three transformation characteristics introduced here, Carnot-lift, transformation ratio and coefficient of transformation permit a comparison of energetic and exergetic efficiency of syn- and disproportionation processes at the same evaluation scale.
