Energy Use Efficiency (EUE)

Ratio of total energy output to total energy input.

energy_use_efficiency(energy_out, energy_in, verbose = TRUE)

Arguments

energy_out

Numeric vector. Total energy output (MJ/ha).

energy_in

Numeric vector. Total energy input (MJ/ha).

verbose

Logical. If TRUE, prints informational messages. Default TRUE.

Value

Numeric vector. Energy use efficiency (dimensionless ratio). Values greater than 1 indicate a positive energy balance.

Details

$$EUE = \frac{E_{out}}{E_{in}}$$

Examples

energy_use_efficiency(energy_out = 135000, energy_in = 12000)
#> EUE computed: 1 values.
#> [1] 11.25
