muundamise kasutegur
Usage examples
  • Kütuse sellisel oksüdatsioonil ehk nn külmpõlemisel on keemilise energia elektriks muundamise kasutegur kõrgem (40–90 %) kui soojuselektrijaamades (25–40 %), kus kütuse keemiline energia muundub kõigepealt soojuseks ja alles siis mehaanilise töö vahendusel elektrienergiaks.
