Power optimization of an endoreversible closed intercooled regenerated Brayton-cycle coupled to variable-temperature heat-reservoirs

In this paper, in the viewpoint of finite-time thermodynamics and entropy-generation minimization are employed. The analytical formulae relating the power and pressure-ratio are derived assuming heat-resistance losses in the four heat-exchangers (hot- and cold-side heat exchangers, the intercooler and the regenerator), and the effect of the finite thermal-capacity rate of the heat reservoirs. The power optimization is performed by searching the optimum heat-conductance distributions among the four heat-exchangers for a fixed total heat-exchanger inventory, and by searching for the optimum intercooling pressure-ratio. When the optimization is performed with respect to the total pressure-ratio of the cycle, the maximum power is maximized twice and a ‘double-maximum’ power is obtained. When the optimization is performed with respect to the thermal capacitance rate ratio between the working fluid and the heat reservoir, the double-maximum power is maximized again and a thrice-maximum power is obtained. The effects of the heat reservoir’s inlet-temperature ratio and the total heat-exchanger inventory on the optimal performance of the cycle are analyzed by numerical examples.     

Maximum power of an endoreversible intercooled Brayton cycle

This paper describes an application of finite‐time thermodynamics to optimize the power output of endoreversible intercooled Brayton cycles coupled to two heat reservoirs with infinite thermal capacitance rates. The effects of intercooling on the maximum power and maximum‐power efficiency of an endoreversible Brayton cycle are examined. With appropriate temperature ratios of turbines and compressors being used, the maximum power output of an endoreversible intercooled Brayton cycle can be higher than that of an endoreversible simple Brayton cycle without lowering the thermal efficiency. New diagrams for maximum power, maximum‐power thermal efficiency, and optimum temperature ratios of turbines and compressors are reported. Copyright © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Power optimization of an endoreversible Brayton gas heat engine

The power output of a simple endoreversible Brayton gas heat engine is analyzed and optimized. The endoreversible engine is defined as a power cycle in which the two processes of heat transfer from and to the surrounding heat reservoirs are the only irreversible processes in the Brayton cycle. A mathematical expression is derived for the power output of the irreversible heat engine. The power optimization provides the basis for designing a real gas heat engine and for a performance comparison with existing Brayton power plants.     

Ecological performance analysis of an endoreversible modified Brayton cycle

An endoreversible closed modified simple Brayton cycle model with isothermal heat addition coupled to variable-temperature heat reservoirs is established using finite-time thermodynamics. Analytical expressions of dimensionless power output, thermal efficiency, dimensionless entropy generation rate and dimensionless ecological function are derived. Influences of cycle thermodynamic parameters on ecological performance and optimal compressor pressure ratio, optimal power output, optimal cycle thermal efficiency and optimal entropy generation rate corresponding to maximum ecological function are obtained and compared with those corresponding to maximum power output. The results show that cycle thermal efficiency improvement and entropy generation rate reduction are obtained at the expense of higher compressor pressure ratio and a little sacrifice of power output at maximum ecological function. The compromises between power output and entropy generation rate and between power output and cycle thermal efficiency, respectively, are achieved.

Endoreversible Joule–Brayton cogeneration cycle has been optimized based on a new criterion, total useful energy-rate (including power output and useful heat output), and the efficiency at maximum total useful energy rate has also been determined. The effects of various cycle parameters on the maximum dimensionless total useful-energy rate and the efficiency at maximum total useful-energy rate have been assessed. Variations of dimensionless total useful-energy rate with respect to efficiency have also been analyzed. The reversible Joule–Brayton power cycle is a special case of the analyzed cycle.     

Power,power density and efficiency optimization of an endoreversible Braysson cycle

The performance optimization of an endoreversible Braysson cycle with heat resistance losses in the hot- and cold-side heat exchangers is performed by using finite-time thermodynamics. The relations between the power output and the working fluid temperature ratio, between the power density and the working fluid temperature ratio, as well as between the efficiency and the working fluid temperature ratio of the cycle coupled to constant-temperature heat reservoirs are derived. Moreover, the optimum heat conductance distributions corresponding to the optimum dimensionless power output, the optimum dimensionless power density and the optimum thermal efficiency of the cycle, and the optimum working fluid temperature ratios corresponding to the optimum dimensionless power output and the optimum dimensionless power density are provided. The effects of various design parameters on those optimum values are studied by detailed numerical examples.

Ecological performance analysis of an endoreversible regenerative Brayton heat-engine

A performance analysis based on an ecological performance criterion has been performed for an endoreversible regenerative Brayton heat-engine. In the model, the heat-transfer irreversibilities were considered and other irreversibilities were neglected. The ecologic objective-function, defined as the power output minus the loss rate of availability is taken as the optimization criterion. The optimum performance parameters that maximize the ecological objective function are investigated. The effect of the regenerator effectiveness on the global and optimal performance have been discussed. The results obtained are compared with those of the maximum-power criterion.

Performance analysis of a closed regenerated Brayton heat pump with internal irreversibilities

This paper analyses the performance of a real heat pump plant via methods of entropy generation minimization or finite‐time thermodynamics. The analytical relations between heating load and pressure ratio, and between coefficient of performance (COP) and pressure ratio of real closed regenerated Brayton heat pump cycles coupled to constant‐ and variable‐temperature heat reservoirs are derived. In the analysis, the irreversibilities include heat transfer‐irreversible losses in the hot‐ and cold‐side heat exchangers and the regenerator, the non‐isentropic expansion and compression losses in the compressor and expander, and the pressure drop loss in the pipe and system. The optimal performance characteristics of the cycle may be obtained by optimizing the distribution of heat conductances or heat transfer surface areas among the two heat exchangers and the regenerator, and the matching between working fluid and the heat reservoirs. The influence of the effectiveness of regenerator, the effectiveness of hot‐ and cold‐side heat exchangers, the efficiencies of the expander and compressor, the pressure recovery coefficient and the temperature of the heat reservoirs on the heating load and COP of the cycle are illustrated by numerical examples.

Exergetic sustainability evaluation and optimization of an irreversible Brayton cycle performance

Owing to the energy demands and global warming issue, employing more effective power cycles has become a responsibility. This paper presents a thermodynamical study of an irreversible Brayton cycle with the aim of optimizing the performance of the Brayton cycle. Moreover, four different schemes in the process of multi-objective optimization were suggested, and the outcomes of each scheme are assessed separately. The power output, the concepts of entropy generation, the energy, the exergy output, and the exergy efficiencies for the irreversible Brayton cycle are considered in the analysis. In the first scheme, in order to maximize the exergy output, the ecological function and the ecological coefficient of performance, a multi-objective optimization algorithm (MOEA) is used. In the second scheme, three objective functions including the exergetic performance criteria, the ecological coefficient of performance, and the ecological function are maximized at the same time by employing MOEA. In the third scenario, in order to maximize the exergy output, the exergetic performance criteria and the ecological coefficient of performance, a MOEA is performed. In the last scheme, three objective functions containing the exergetic performance criteria, the ecological coefficient of performance, and the exergy-based ecological function are maximized at the same time by employing multi-objective optimization algorithms. All the strategies are implemented via multi-objective evolutionary algorithms based on the NSGAII method. Finally, to govern the final outcome in each scheme, three well-known decision makers were employed.

Power and efficiency optimization for combined Brayton and inverse Brayton cycles

A thermodynamic model for open combined Brayton and inverse Brayton cycles is established considering the pressure drops of the working fluid along the flow processes and the size constraints of the real power plant using finite time thermodynamics in this paper. There are 11 flow resistances encountered by the gas stream for the combined Brayton and inverse Brayton cycles. Four of these, the friction through the blades and vanes of the compressors and the turbines, are related to the isentropic efficiencies. The remaining flow resistances are always present because of the changes in flow cross-section at the compressor inlet of the top cycle, combustion inlet and outlet, turbine outlet of the top cycle, turbine outlet of the bottom cycle, heat exchanger inlet, and compressor inlet of the bottom cycle. These resistances control the air flow rate and the net power output. The relative pressure drops associated with the flow through various cross-sectional areas are derived as functions of the compressor inlet relative pressure drop of the top cycle. The analytical formulae about the relations between power output, thermal conversion efficiency, and the compressor pressure ratio of the top cycle are derived with the 11 pressure drop losses in the intake, compression, combustion, expansion, and flow process in the piping, the heat transfer loss to the ambient, the irreversible compression and expansion losses in the compressors and the turbines, and the irreversible combustion loss in the combustion chamber. The performance of the model cycle is optimized by adjusting the compressor inlet pressure of the bottom cycle, the air mass flow rate and the distribution of pressure losses along the flow path. It is shown that the power output has a maximum with respect to the compressor inlet pressure of the bottom cycle, the air mass flow rate or any of the overall pressure drops, and the maximized power output has an additional maximum with respect to the compressor pressure ratio of the top cycle. When the optimization is performed with the constraints of a fixed fuel flow rate and the power plant size, the power output and efficiency can be maximized again by properly allocating the fixed overall flow area among the compressor inlet of the top cycle and the turbine outlet of the bottom cycle.

Thermo-economic optimization of an endoreversible four-heat-reservoir absorption-refrigerator

Based on an endoreversible four-heat-reservoir absorption-refrigeration-cycle model, the optimal thermo-economic performance of an absorption-refrigerator is analyzed and optimized assuming a linear (Newtonian) heat-transfer law applies. The optimal relation between the thermo-economic criterion and the coefficient of performance (COP), the maximum thermo-economic criterion, and the COP and specific cooling load for the maximum thermo-economic criterion of the cycle are derived using finite-time thermodynamics. Moreover, the effects of the cycle parameters on the thermo-economic performance of the cycle are studied by numerical examples.
