Three‐dimensional modeling method for heat exchange of rotary air preheater in coal‐fired power plant

A numerical modeling method based on a 3‐D heat transfer model and duct models for a dual‐sectional rotary air preheater have been developed in this paper. Owing to different boundary conditions for the heat transfer model obtained by modeling and calculation of the ducts, this method is capable of calculating the 3‐D metal and fluid temperature fields at different radial locations in the rotary air preheater along the rotor height as well as the rotating period, and furthermore, it can calculate temperature and flow field inside the flow passage as well. A case study with a dual‐sectional rotary air preheater of a typical 300 MW_e unit used as the research object is presented in this paper. The calculation results accord well with those obtained by verified numerical methods in published literature. The difference between the calculated and the measured outlet fluid temperature of the rotary air preheater is smaller than 3 °C. The numerical modeling method presented in this paper is proved to have high precision and is beneficial for the secure and economic operation of a rotary air preheater as well as the whole unit. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Exergy analysis of a dual-level binary geothermal power plant

Exergy analysis of a 12.4 MW existing binary geothermal power plant is performed using actual plant data to assess the plant performance and pinpoint sites of primary exergy destruction. Exergy destruction throughout the plant is quantified and illustrated using an exergy flow diagram, and compared to the energy flow diagram. The causes of exergy destruction in the plant include the exergy of the working fluid lost in the condenser, the exergy of the brine reinjected, the turbine-pump losses, and the preheater–vaporizer losses. The exergy destruction at these sites accounts for 22.6, 14.8, 13.9, and 13.0% of the total exergy input to the plant, respectively. Exergetic efficiencies of major plant components are determined in an attempt to assess their individual performances. The exergetic efficiency of the plant is determined to be 29.1% based on the exergy of the geothermal fluid at the vaporizer inlet, and 34.2% based on the exergy drop of the brine across the vaporizer–preheater system (i.e. exergy input to the Rankine cycle). For comparison, the corresponding thermal efficiencies for the plant are calculated to be 5.8 and 8.9%, respectively.

Exergy analysis of two cryogenic air separation processes

Two process designs of a cryogenic ASU (air separation unit) have been evaluated using exergy analysis. The ASU is part of an IGCC (integrated gasification combined cycle); it is supplying oxygen and nitrogen to the gasifier and nitrogen to the gas turbine. The two process designs separate the same feed into products with the same specifications. They differ in the number of distillation columns that are used; either two or three. Addition of the third column reduced the exergy destruction in the distillation section with 31%. Overall, the three-column design destroyed 12% less exergy than the two-column design. The rational exergy efficiency is defined as the desired exergy change divided by the total exergy change; it is 38% for the three-column design and 35% for the two-column design. Almost half of the exergy destruction is located in compressor after-coolers. Using this heat of compression elsewhere in the IGCC can be an important way to increase the IGCC efficiency. It is proposed to use it for the pre-heating of ASU products or for the production of steam, which can be used as part of the steam turbine cycle.

A numerical model for the analyses of heat transfer and leakages in a rotary air preheater

Air preheaters make a considerable contribution to the improved overall efficiency of fossil-fuel-fired power plants. In this study we used a combination of fluid dynamics and a newly developed three-dimensional numerical model for heat transfer as the basis for a theoretical analysis of a rotary air preheater. The model enables studies of the flue-gas flow through the preheater and the adjoining channels as well as the regenerative heat transfer and the resulting temperature distribution in the matrix of the preheater. Special attention was focused on the influences of leakages on the flue-gas parameters in the preheater. The numerical analysis and the experimental results showed an obvious dependence of the flue-gas parameters on various seal settings. Based on the results a method for online monitoring of the tightness of the radial seals is proposed.     

Exergy analysis of two phase change materials storage system for solar thermal power with finite-time thermodynamics

A mathematical model for the overall exergetic efficiency of two phase change materials named PCM1 and PCM2 storage system with a concentrating collector for solar thermal power based on finite-time thermodynamics is developed. The model takes into consideration the effects of melting temperatures and number of heat transfer unit of PCM1 and PCM2 on the overall exergetic efficiency. The analysis is based on a lumped model for the PCMs which assumes that a PCM is a thermal reservoir with a constant temperature of its melting point and a distributed model for the air which assumes that the temperature of the air varies in its flow path. The results show that the overall exergetic efficiency can be improved by 19.0-53.8% using two PCMs compared with a single PCM. It is found that melting temperatures of PCM1 and PCM2 have different influences on the overall exergetic efficiency, and the overall exergetic efficiency decreases with increasing the melting temperature of PCM1, increases with increasing the melting temperature of PCM2. It is also found that for PCM1, increasing its number of heat transfer unit can increase the overall exergetic efficiency, however, for PCM2, only when the melting temperature of PCM1 is less than 1150 K and the melting temperature of PCM2 is more than 750 K, increasing the number of heat transfer unit of PCM2 can increase the overall exergetic efficiency. Considering actual application of solar thermal power, we suggest that the optimum melting temperature range of PCM1 is 1000-1150 K and that of PCM2 is 750-900 K. The present analysis provides theoretical guidance for applications of two PCMs storage system for solar thermal power.

Exergy based performance analysis of a solid oxide fuel cell and steam injected gas turbine hybrid power system

This paper presents exergy analysis of a hybrid solid oxide fuel cell and gas turbine (SOFC/GT) system in comparison with retrofitted system with steam injection. It is proposed to use hot gas turbine exhaust gases heat in a heat recovery steam generator to produce steam and inject it into gas turbine. Based on a steady-state model of the processes, exergy flow rates are calculated for all components and a detailed exergy analysis is performed. The components with the highest proportion of irreversibility in the hybrid systems are identified and compared. It is shown that steam injection decreases the wasted exergy from the system exhaust and boosts the exergetic efficiency by 12.11%. Also, 17.87% and 12.31% increase in exergy output and the thermal efficiency, respectively, is demonstrated. A parametric study is also performed for different values of compression pressure ratio, current density and pinch point temperature difference.

Exergy analysis of a coal‐based 210 MW thermal power plant

In the present work, exergy analysis of a coal‐based thermal power plant is done using the design data from a 210 MW thermal power plant under operation in India. The entire plant cycle is split up into three zones for the analysis: (1) only the turbo‐generator with its inlets and outlets, (2) turbo‐generator, condenser, feed pumps and the regenerative heaters, (3) the entire cycle with boiler, turbo‐generator, condenser, feed pumps, regenerative heaters and the plant auxiliaries. It helps to find out the contributions of different parts of the plant towards exergy destruction. The exergy efficiency is calculated using the operating data from the plant at different conditions, viz. at different loads, different condenser pressures, with and without regenerative heaters and with different settings of the turbine governing. The load variation is studied with the data at 100, 75, 60 and 40% of full load. Effects of two different condenser pressures, i.e. 76 and 89 mmHg (abs.), are studied. Effect of regeneration on exergy efficiency is studied by successively removing the high pressure regenerative heaters out of operation. The turbine governing system has been kept at constant pressure and sliding pressure modes to study their effects. It is observed that the major source of irreversibility in the power cycle is the boiler, which contributes to an exergy destruction of the order of 60%. Part load operation increases the irreversibilities in the cycle and the effect is more pronounced with the reduction of the load. Increase in the condenser back pressure decreases the exergy efficiency. Successive withdrawal of the high pressure heaters show a gradual increment in the exergy efficiency for the control volume excluding the boiler, while a decrease in exergy efficiency when the whole plant including the boiler is considered. Keeping the main steam pressure before the turbine control valves in sliding mode improves the exergy efficiencies in case of part load operation. Copyright © 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Exergy analysis of the energy use in Greece

In this work, an analysis is being done on the concept of energy and exergy utilization and an application to the residential and industrial sector of Greece. The energy and exergy flows over the period from 1990 to 2004 were taken into consideration. This period was chosen based on the data reliability. The energy and exergy efficiencies are calculated for the residential and industrial sectors and compared to the findings of a previous study concerning the exergy efficiency of the Greek transport sector. The residential energy and exergy efficiencies for the year 2003 were 22.36% and 20.92%, respectively, whereas the industrial energy and exergy efficiencies for the same year were 53.72% and 51.34%, respectively. The analysis of energy and exergy utilization determines the efficiency of the economy as a whole. The results can play an important role in the establishment of efficiency standards of the energy use in various economy sectors. These standards could be utilized by energy policy makers.     

Exergy, economic & environmental (3E) analysis of inlet fogging for gas turbine power plant

In the present paper, the effects of inlet fogging system on the first and second law efficiencies are investigated for a typical power plant (Shahid Rajaee) which is located near Ghazvin in Iran. Also a new function is proposed for system optimization that includes the social cost of air pollution for power generating systems. The new function is based on the first law efficiency, energy cost and the external social cost of air pollution for an operational system. Social cost of air pollution is based on the negative effects of air pollution on the health of society and environment. The economic aspect of these effects is called external social cost of air pollution. Other pollution sources such as water, soil, etc. produced by an operational power generation system are ignored. The theoretical results obtained from the model are validated by registered practical performance results from Shahid Rajaee power plant. It is concluded that using of inlet fogging system, increases the average output power production, the first and the second law efficiencies through three months of year (June, July and August) by 7%, 5.5% and 6% respectively and reduces the objective function value by about 4%.

Exergy analysis of hydrogen production by thermochemical water decomposition using the Ispra Mark-10 Cycle

An investigation is reported of the thermodynamic performance of the Ispra Mark-10 thermochemical water decomposition process for hydrogen production. Thermochemical water decomposition has been identified as a potentially important future process for the production of hydrogen, which is currently an important industrial commodity and has significant future potential as a fuel. Exergy analysis is used since energy analysis on its own does not pinpoint true process inefficiencies, and often does not provide rational efficiencies. The analysis indicates that the principle thermodynamic losses occur in the primary water decomposition reactors and are mainly due to internal irreversibilities associated with chemical reaction and heat transfer across large temperature differences, and that the losses associated with effluents (particularly cooling water) are not that significant. Energy and exergy efficiencies are provided and are observed to depend strongly on the main external process inputs, i.e., electricity and process heat, or heat, or the raw resource from which heat and electricity are produced.

Theoretical performance analysis of the multi‐stage gas–solid fluidized bed air preheater

The multi‐stage fluidized bed can be used to preheat the combustion air by recovering the waste heat from the exhaust gas from industrial furnaces. The dilute‐phase fluidized bed may be formed to exclude the excessive pressure drop across the multi‐stage fluidized bed. But, in this case, the solid particles do not reach to the thermal equilibrium due to relatively short residence time in each layer of fluidized bed. In this study, a theoretical analysis on the dilute phase multistage fluidized bed heat exchanger was performed. A parameter related to the degree of thermal equilibrium between gas and solid particles at the dilute‐phase fluidized beds was derived. Using this parameter, a relatively simple expression was obtained for the thermal efficiencies of the multi‐stage fluidized bed heat exchanger and air preheater.
