| dc.description.abstract | This special issue of Journal of Energy Resources Technology presents selected scientific output of the 5th Conference on Contemporary Problems of Thermal Engineering CPOTE 2018, which was held on Sept. 18–21, 2018, in Gliwice, Upper Silesia, Poland.Since its first edition in 1998, the CPOTE Conference has become a cyclic event gathering the most recognized scientists in the areas of thermodynamics, energy and environmental engineering. Compared to other conferences dedicated to thermodynamics and energy, CPOTE focuses on exergy analysis to a larger extent. Instead of convincing nonspecialists that exergy does represent a useful tool for evaluation of thermodynamic quality, the CPOTE Conference provides a dedicated space for advance discussion among the World’s leading experts on exergy. | |
