It is found that the variation reference temperature affects the thermoeconomic parameters. The exergetic cost of the system becomes higher at the higher reference conditions as directly proportional to the varying dead state conditions. It also becomes minimum at 8 C reference temperature as 196.96 $/h while it is maximum at 10 C dead-state temperature with 357.60 $/h. Furthermore the maximum capital cost of the equipment is determined for the thermochemical TES as 4.612 $/h. So the better optimization of this equipment may be considered. © 2013 Elsevier Ltd.
