Parametric analysis of the efficiency of the combined gas-steam turbine unit of a hybrid cycle for the FPSO vessel

A thermal diagram of the combined gas-steam turbine unit of a hybrid cycle, which is an energy complex consisting of a base gas turbine engine with a steam turbine heat recovery circuit and a steam-injected gas turbine operating with overexpansion, is proposed. A mathematical model of a power plant has been developed, taking into consideration the features of thermodynamic processes of simple, binary, and steam-injected gas–steam cycles. Thermodynamic investigations and optimization of the parameters of a combined installation of a hybrid cycle for the generation of electrical energy have been carried out. Three-dimensional calculations of the combustion chamber of a steam-injected gas turbine were carried out, which confirmed the low emissions of the main toxic components.

Thermodynamic analysis of triple effect ammonia–water absorption compression (hybrid) cycle

This paper presents the energy analysis of a triple effect absorption compression (hybrid) cycle employing ammonia water as working fluid. The performance parameters such as cooling capacity and coefficient of performance of the hybrid cycle is analyzed by varying the temperature of evaporator from −10 °C to 10 °C, absorber and condenser temperatures in first stage from 25 °C to 45 °C, degassing width in both the stages from 0.02 to 0.12 and is compared with the conventional triple effect absorption cycle. The results of the analysis show that the maximum cooling capacity attained in the hybrid cycle is 472.3 kW, at 10 °C evaporator temperature and first stage degassing width of 0.12. The coefficient of performance of the hybrid cycle is about 30 to 65% more than the coefficient of performance of conventional triple effect cycle.

Efficiency at Maximum Power of the Low-Dissipation Hybrid Electrochemical–Otto Cycle

A novel analytical method was developed for analysis of efficiency at maximum power of a hybrid cycle combining electrochemical and Otto engines. The analysis is based on the low-dissipation model, which relates energy dissipation with energy transfer rate. Efficiency at maximum power of a hybrid engine operating between two reservoirs of chemical potentials is evaluated. The engine is composed of an electrochemical device that transforms chemical potential to electrical work of an Otto engine that uses the heat generated in the electrochemical device and its exhaust effluent for mechanical work production. The results show that efficiency at maximum power of the hybrid cycle is identical to the efficiency at maximum power of an electrochemical engine alone; however, the power is the product of the electrochemical engine power and the compression ratio of the Otto engine. Partial mass transition by the electrochemical device from the high to the low chemical potential is also examined. In the latter case, heat is generated both in the electrochemical device and the Otto engine, and the efficiency at maximum power is a function of the compression ratio. An analysis performed using the developed method shows, for the first time, that, in terms of a maximal power, at some conditions, Otto cycle can provide better performance that the hybrid cycle. On the other hand, an efficiency comparison at maximum power with the separate Otto-cycle and chemical engine results in some advantages of the hybrid cycle.

Smart Operating Control in Hybrid Cycle

As we all know that transportation sector is extremely necessary, current generation all the vehicle are bornagain to electrical vehicles it's the rapid climb in vehicle market conjointly hybrid vehicle conjointly came into the trade having the over one power.The hybrid vehicles work underneath each fuel power and electric power however is pricey and conjointly it's unable to attach to the tiny vehicle like bikes and bicycle, dominant of hybrid power. Therefore troublesome its unable connect for little vehicle attributable to this issue the good operative managementler designed “smart operative control in hybrid cycle".This project in the mainly designed for the medium transportation like two-wheelers, hybrid cycles, this in the main controllers the hybrid power base d on the load and distance to be traveled

Analysis of Hybrid Ejector Absorption Cooling System

In this paper, a hybrid ejector single-effect lithium-bromide water cycle is theoretically investigated. The system is a conventional single-effect cycle activated by an external steam-ejector loop. A mathematical model of the whole system is developed. Simulations are carried out to study the effect of the major parameters of the hybrid cycle on its performances and in comparison with the conventional cycle. The ejector performance is also investigated. Results show that the entrainment ratio rises with steam pressure and condenser temperature, while it decreases with increasing generator temperature. The effect of the evaporator temperature on ejector performance is negligible. It is shown also that the hybrid cycle exhibits better performances than the corresponding basic cycle. However, the performance improvement is limited to a specific range of the operating parameters. Outside this range, the hybrid system behaves similar to a conventional cycle. Inside this range, the COP increases, reaches a maximum, and then decreases and rejoins the behavior of the basic cycle. The maximum COP, which can be as large as that of a conventional double-effect cycle, about 1, is obtained at lower temperatures than in the case of single-effect cycles.
