Key Points

Exergy analysis demonstrates significant variation in thermal efficiency across different hot tank outlet temperatures.
The optimal hot tank outlet temperature improved system performance by 15%, indicating a strong correlation with efficiency.
Analysis of Rankine cycles with solar input shows that integration with LNG enhances viability in thermal applications.
The findings support further exploration of integrated systems for energy efficiency gains across varying temperatures.
