Definition Of

The aim of this work is to demonstrate the capability of an original “modular” simulator tool for the thermoeconomic analysis of thermal-energy systems. The approach employed is based on the Thermoeconomic Functional Analysis (T.F.A.), which, through definition of the “functional productive diagram” and the establishment of the capital cost function of each component, allows the marginal costs and the unit product costs, i.e., the “internal economy,” of the functional exergy flows to be obtained in correspondence to the optimum point. The optimum design of the system is obtained utilizing a traditional optimization technique, which includes both physical structure of the energy system described in terms of thermodynamic variables and cost model (capital cost of the components, maintenance and amortization factors, unit fuel cost, unit electricity cost, etc.). As an application example to show the practicability of the tool, the thermoeconomic analysis of various complex multipressure combined cycles (with or without steam reheating) is carried out. The results are analyzed and discussed in depth.

Assuming that methanol is employed as fuel, the heat released from the gas turbine discharges can be used to cause an endothermic catalytic reaction: CH3 OH + H2 O + heat → 0,5 CO + 0,5 CO2 + 2,5 H2 + 0,5 H2 O; this produces a gaseous fuel, the lower heaving value of which exceeds that of methanol by 18%. Combining both steam reforming of methanol and steam injection in the combustor by using the maximum heat available in the exhaust gases, very interesting cycle characteristics can be achieved (more than 50% efficiency (LHV basis), same capital cost per kW as simple cycle gas turbine (9000E engine), low emissions of NOx and SO2). Reheating the gas during the expansion will improve the efficiency by 2–3 points allowing an increase in power output without increasing the capital cost per kW. At the end of the century, these types of cycles could be applied to all the new, non-nuclear power plants in the French energy system. The annual cumulative duration of such generators will not be greater than 2000 hours.
