SANKEY DIAGRAMS
Let's watch this video below to help us understand more about
"Energy Efficiency" and Sankey Diagrams.
A Sankey diagram shows all the energy transfers in a system.
These diagrams show the energy that flows INTO and OUT OF a system as arrows of various sizes.
THICKER arrows mean more energy.
A Sankey diagram can also show waste energy leaving a system.
This energy is shown as a curved arrow pointing in a different direction to useful energy.
EACH SANKEY DIAGRAM WILL SHOW
INPUT ENERGY,
USEFUL OUTPUT ENERGY
& WASTED OUTPUT ENERGY
You can also garner how energy is transformed from them.

THE LAW OF
CONSERVATION OF ENERGY!
by Albert Einstein❤
THE LAW OF CONSERVATION OF ENERGY
STATES THAT ENERGY CAN CHANGE (TRANSFORM) BUT
IT IS NEITHER CREATED NOR DESTROYED.
