Introduciton:

In this experiment, three differnet thermodynamic cycle scenaro’s were given. Each was to be determined via tables and graphs: cold air-standard Brayton cycle, an ideal steam Rankine cycle, an an ideal vapor-compression refrigeration cycle. In each question, their would be a constant set to perform different calculations. This was done the desired amount. In the cold air-standard Brayton cycle, the thermal efficiency and net specific work output was needed with constant compressor pressure ratios of 6, 9, 12, and 15; while the turbine inlet temperatures were 800ºC, 1000ºC, 1200ºC, and 1400ºC. Then, the turbine inlet temperatures remained constant at 800ºC, 1000ºC, 1200ºC, and 1400ºC; while the compressor pressure ratios was 6, 9, 12, and 15. After all data was collected, four graphs were to be created by plotting the turbine inlet temperatures and the compressor pressure ratio versus the cycle thermal efficiency and net specific work output. For the ideal steam Rankine cycle, needed was to plot the cycle thermal efficiency by first setting the turbine exhaust pressures at a constant of 10, 50, and 100 kPa; and going through the turbine inlet pressures at 1, 5, and 8 MPa. Secondaly, it was needed to set the turbine exhaust pressures constant and going through a turbine inlet temperature of 300ºC, 500ºC, 700ºC. After all data was collected, two graphs were to be created. The first was plotted: the cycle thermal efficiency versus the turbine inlet temperatures as the exhaust pressures were and turbine inlet pressures were constant. The second was plotted: the cycle thermal efficiency versus the turbine inlet pressure as each exhaust pressure and turbine inlet temperature were constant. Lastly, for the ideal vapor-compression refrigeration cycle, it was required to calculate and plot the COP as the condenser and evaporator pressures effected the COP. In order to do this, it was needed to set the condenser pressures constant and going through the different evaporator pressures. Then a graph was calculated by the condenser pressure versus the COP. Next, remained constant was the evaporator pressures and went through each of the condenser pressures. Also, a graph was calculated by evaporator pressure versus the COP.

Observations:

For the first cycle, cold air-standard Brayton, the thermal efficiency and net specific work output was needed with constant compressor pressure ratios of; while the turbine inlet temperatures cycled. Then the turbine inlet temperatures remained constant, while the compressor pressure ratios was cycled. After all data was collected, four graphs were created by plotting the turbine inlet temperatures and the compressor pressure ratio versus the cycle thermal efficiency and net specific work output. Overlooking the data, as the compressor pressure ratio increased from 6 to 15, the work output also increased. This also occured as the turbine inlet temperatures increased. Also, as the compressor pressure ratio increased, the work of the compressor increased. However, for a pressure ratio of 6 and temperature of 1073 K, the cycle thermal efficiency remained the same. This occured for each of the pressure ratios cycling through the turbine inlet temperatures.
The second cycle was the ideal steam Rankine cycle. The cycle thermal efficiency was needed and two plots were to be determined by the the data. This was done by first setting the turbine exhaust pressures constant and going through the turbine inlet pressures, and secondaly setting the turbine exhaust pressures constant and going through the turbine inlet temperatures. The first was plotted: the cycle thermal efficiency versus the turbine inlet temperatures as the exhaust pressures were and turbine inlet pressures were constant. The second was plotted: the cycle thermal efficiency versus the turbine inlet pressure as each exhaust pressure and turbine inlet temperature were constant. Observing the table, whenever the turbine exhaust pressure would increase, 10 to 100 kPa, the cycle thermal efficiency would decrease. However, as the turbine inlet temperatures increased while the pressures of the turbine at the inlet and exit remained constant, the cycle thermal efficiency increased. Also Qin decreased for every inlet and exhaust pressure; while going through different temperatures.
Last was the ideal vapor-compression refrigeration cycle. It was required to calculate and plot the COP. This was done by setting the condenser pressure constant and going through the different evaporator pressures. A graph was calculated by the condenser pressure versus the COP. Then the evaporator pressure was constant as the condenser pressure was cycled through. Also, a graph was calculated by evaporator pressure versus the COP. Noting from the table, the COP increased as the condenser pressure increased while going through the evaporator pressures. However, the COP decreased for a constant evaporator pressure, while going through the condenser pressure.

Conclusion:

In this experiment, three differnet thermodynamic cycle scenaro’s were given. The first was the ideal, cold air-standard Brayton cycle. It was noted that in order to increase the the work output, the compressor pressure ratios and the turbine inlet temperatures were to be increased. Also, the cycle thermal efficiency would reamin the same as the pressure ratio and temperature were constant. Each of the pressure ratios cycling through the turbine inlet temperatures showed this happening. For the Rankine cycle, the cycle thermal efficiency would decrease whenever the turbine exhaust pressure would increase. Also, in order to increase the cycle thermal efficiency, the turbine inlet temperatures needed to be increased. While cycling through different temperatures, Qin would decreased for every inlet and exhaust pressure. The last cycle was the refrigeration cycle. As the condenser pressure increased while going through the evaporator pressures, the COP would also increase. But, while going through the condenser pressure the COP decreased.

...most proven solar thermal electric technology. This is primarily due to nine large commercial-scale solar power plants, the first of which has been operating in the California Mojave Desert since 1984. These plants, which continue to operate on a daily basis, range in size from 14 to 80 MW and represent a total of 354 MW of installed electric generating capacity. Large fields of parabolic trough collectors supply the thermal energy used to produce steam for a Rankine steam turbine/generator cycle. Figure 1. Solar/Rankine parabolic trough system schematic [1]. Plant Overview Figure 1 shows a process flow diagram that is representative of the majority of parabolic trough solar power plants in operation today. The collector field consists of a large field of single-axis tracking parabolic trough solar collectors. The solar field is modular in nature and is composed of many parallel rows of solar collectors aligned on a north-south horizontal axis. Each solar collector has a linear parabolic-shaped reflector that focuses the sun’s direct beam radiation on a linear receiver located at the focus of the parabola. The collectors track the sun from east to west during the day to ensure that the sun is continuously focused on the linear receiver. A heat transfer fluid (HTF) is heated as it circulates through the receiver and returns to a series of heat exchangers in the power block where the fluid is used to 5-24 SOLAR PARABOLIC TROUGH generate high-pressure superheated steam...

All rights reserved. Copyright © Siemens AG 2009. All rights reserved. 1 Abstract Clean and cost-effective power generation is of paramount importance to cope with the challenges imposed by an increasing energy demand throughout the world. Investment cost and fuel costs are the main contributors to the cost of electricity. In recent years, costs associated with CO2 emissions have attracted more and more attention due to its political awareness. The efficiency of the power plant as one key value affects both the fuel costs and the amount of CO2 emitted to the environment. As coal is more abundant in many parts of the world, coal prices are less volatile and more stable than natural gas prices. But larger CO2 emissions increase the need for more efficient coal-based power generation. Ultra supercritical (USC) steam power plants meet notably the requirements for high efficiencies to reduce both fuel costs and emissions as well as for a reliable supply of electric energy at low cost. Recent developments in steam turbine technology and high-temperature materials allowed for significant efficiency gains. Siemens has more than fifteen years of...

Nuclear Power in the Uae

...Nuclear Power Plant Design for the United Arab Emirates The United Arab Emirates (also referred to as the UAE or the Emirates) is a relatively young country that has established a powerful world economy in a short period of time. After breaking ties from the United Kingdom just over four decades ago, the UAE has quickly developed one of the most appealing economies for foreign investment in Western Asia. The Emirates’ largest cities, Dubai and Abu Dhabi, are significant business gateways between the Middle East, Africa and Asia. Leveraging its prime geographical location and plentiful oil and natural gas reserves, the UAE has endeavored to develop its economy to the point that “today, [the Emirates] feels proud of [its] world-class and highly-ranked sea and air ports, which have strongly positioned the UAE as a main hub for trade and travel worldwide,” according to UAE Prime Minister Sheikh Mohammed. This improvement-centric mindset coupled with strategic reinvestment in infrastructure sets the United Arab Emirates on a path towards long-term global impact in many business indices.

Impact of Nuclear Power Plant in Kudankulam

...NUCLEAR POWER PLANT IN KUDANKULAM What is Nuclear Power?  Nuclear power, or Nuclear energy, is the use of exothermic nuclear processes, to generate useful heat & electricity. The term includes the following heat producing processes – nuclear fission, nuclear decay and nuclear fusion. Uses 1.   Nuclear power is a low carbon method of producing electricity & in 2011 nuclear power provided 10% of the world's electricity. 2.   Many military and some civilian (such as some icebreaker) ships use nuclear marine propulsion, a form of nuclear propulsion. 3.   A few space vehicles have been launched using full-fledged nuclear reactors: the Soviet RORSAT series and the American SNAP -10 A. 4.   Both Fission and fusion appear promising for space propulsion applications, generating higher mission velocities with less reaction mass. (Due to the much higher energy density of nuclear reactions: some 7 orders of magnitude (10,000,000 times) more energetic than the chemical reactions which power the current generation of rockets). 5.   International research is continuing into the use of nuclear fusion, and additional uses of process heat such as hydrogen production (in support of a hydrogen economy), desalinizing sea water, and for use in district heating systems. What is Nuclear Reactor? A nuclear reactor is a device to initiate and control a sustained nuclear chain reaction. Nuclear reactors are used at nuclear power plants for generating...

Renewable Energy

...ABTRACT This project paper studies the potential of hydroelectric energy as a way to effectively generate, use and store renewable energy through the clean gravitational potential energy of stored water. Nuclear and coal fired plants could do change power output to achieve demand but at extremely high maintenance cost. Nuclear plants also being a good source of continuous energy has a high chance of posing hazard to the environment. Coal and fossil fuel fired power plants on the other hand cannot be depended on because the source will diminish someday. Therefore, alternative methods have to be explored in order to find a renewable and sustainable energy for the future generations. This project paper will study the benefits of hydroelectric energy as a potential and important energy source for a sustainable future. INTRODUCTION 1.0 Hydropower Hydropower is a renewable energy source based on the natural water cycle. Hydropower is the most mature, reliable and cost-effective renewable power generation technology available. Hydropower schemes often have significant flexibility in their design and can be designed to meet base-load demands with relatively high capacity factors, or have higher installed capacities and a lower capacity factor, but meet a much larger share of peak demand. Hydropower is the largest renewable energy source, and it produces around 16 % of the world’s...
