Abstract
In this article a study of the energy performance of a distillation system of ylang-ylang essential oil on a wood fire was carried out. To do this an analysis using the first and the second low of thermodynamics was made for each component of the distillation system. The analysis showed that the energy efficiency depends on the fration of oil to be distilled and that the whole system is very deficient. The exergetic and energetic analysis shows that it is in the combustion chamber that has a large amount of destroyed exergy and a strong energetic loss. The velocity of the air entering at the combustion chamber greatly influences the efficiency of the chamber. Indeed it has been found that the destruction of the exergy increases with the velocity of the air incoming air.
