Abstract The objective of the paper is to analyse thermodynamical and operational parameters of the supercritical power plant with reference conditions as well as following the introduction of the hybrid system incorporating ORC. In ORC the upper heat source is a stream of hot water from the system of heat recovery having temperature of 90 °C, which is additionally aided by heat from the bleeds of the steam turbine. Thermodynamical analysis of the supercritical plant with and without incorporation of ORC was accomplished using computational flow mechanics numerical codes. Investigated were six working fluids such as propane, isobutane, pentane, ethanol, R236ea and R245fa. In the course of calculations determined were primarily the increase of the unit power and efficiency for the reference case and that with the ORC.

Turnkey and thermal island supply scopes present turbine suppliers with a perfect way to sell their rotating products. The popularity of these plant configurations, along with the recent availability of more holistic test codes, has led to the need for an accurate and reasonable method of determining the thermal performance of the externally-purchased HRSG component. To assess a multiple pressure HRSG, it is advantageous and convenient to have one single criterion for the evaluation of performance, especially when this criterion provides for the compensation of the different outlet energy streams. The so-called Model Steam Turbine method of HRSG evaluation was developed for these reasons. The result of the calculation, a lone performance criterion, is the shaft power of the fictitious Model Steam Turbine.

This study explains the performance analysis of a propulsion system engine of an LNG tanker using a combined cycle whose components are gas turbine, steam turbine, and heat recovery steam generator. The researches are to determine the total resistance of an LNG tanker with a capacity of 125,000 m3 by using the Maxsurf Resistance 20 software, as well as to design the propulsion system to meet the required power from the resistance by using the Cycle-Tempo 5.0 software. The simulation results indicate a maximum power of the system of about 28,122.23 kW with a fuel consumption of about 1.173 kg/s and a system efficiency of about 48.49% in fully loaded conditions. The ship speed can reach up to 20.67 knots.

Thermosyphons are self-actuated heat transport systems in which the circulation of the working fluid is brought about by a combination of gravity and buoyant forces. In the recent years, thermosyphons have been considered for widely diverse heat recovery applications, especially in HVAC systems. In this work, a systematic approach for design and analysis of finned air-air thermosyphon heat exchanger system based on effectiveness-NTU method is presented. Furthermore, the effect of mass flow ratio of the hot and cold air stream, temperature difference between the hot and cold air streams, transverse tube spacing, fin spacing and length of the thermosyphon on the effectiveness of the system is predicted by numerical simulation. In addition, the thermal performance of unfinned thermosyphon heat exchanger system has also been investigated experimentally.

Two operating advanced power plants, a supercritical steam plant and a gas-steam turbine combined cycle, have been analyzed using a methodology of graphical exergy analysis (EUDs). The comparison of two plants, which may provide the detailed information on internal phenomena, points out several inefficient segments in the combined cycle plant: higher exergy loss caused by mixing in the combustor, higher exergy waste from the heat recovery steam generator, and higher exergy loss by inefficiency in the power section, especially in the steam turbine. On the basis of these fundamental features of each plant, we recommend several schemes for improving the thermal efficiency of current advanced power plants.

Citizens Utilities Company’s Kauai Electric Division is the electric utility on the Island of Kauai, fourth largest and westernmost as well as northernmost of the Hawaiian Islands. As a result of growing load requirements, additional generating capacity was required that would afford a high level of reliability and operating flexibility and good fuel economy at reasonable capital investment. To meet these requirements, a combined cycle arrangement was completed in 1978 utilizing one existing gas turbine-generator and one new gas turbine-generator, both exhausting to a new heat recovery steam generator which supplies steam to an existing steam turbine-generator. Damper controlled ducting directs exhaust gas from either gas turbine, one at a time, through the heat recovery steam generator. The existing oil-fired steam boiler remains available to power the steam turbine-generator independently or in parallel with the heat recovery steam generator. The gas turbines can operate either in simple cycle as peaking units or in combined cycle, one at a time, as base load units. This arrangement provides excellent operating reliability and flexibility, and the most favorable economics of all generating arrangements for the service required.
