Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first book dedicated to solar gas turbines, providing fundamental knowledge and state-of-the-art developments in the field. A gas turbine is a heat engine in which a mixture of fuel and air is burned in a chamber that is an integral part of the flow circuit of the working fluid. The burnt gas mixture expands and turns the turbine, which can be connected to a generator for electricity production. Solar gas turbines offer an important alternative to conventional gas turbines driven by non-renewable, polluting fossil fuels such as diesel or natural gas. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the topic as well as numerous illustrations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "There is currently no comparable book available that covers both the history and future potential applications of closed-cycle gas turbines. This book is intended for design engineers and engineering managers in the worldwide gas turbine/power generation industry. Upper-level engineering students and schools of engineering would also benefit from this book, as it allows students to work and calculate different cycles and encourages them to make their own innovations."--Jacket.

Download or read book Closed Cycle Gas Turbine Systems in Europe written by Simion C. Kuo and published by . This book was released on 1977 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A review on the status of closed cycle turbine research and development in Europe is given. Closed cycle turbines utilizing air as a working fluid, either coal, gas or oil fired have been used in the past for electricity generation and as additional sources for district heating. The newer developments employ helium as a working fluid. The gas is heated by a large sophisticated gas heater at present. However, the final intention is to use turbines in connection with the high temperature gas cooled nuclear reactors. Marine applications for gas turbines exist and are discussed in the report.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This unique handbook presents both the theory and application of biomass combustion and co-firing, from basic principles to industrial combustion and environmental impact, in a clear and comprehensive manner. It offers a solid grounding on biomass combustion, and advice on improving combustion systems. Written by leading international academics and industrial experts, and prepared under the auspices of the IEA Bioenergy Implementing Agreement, the handbook is an essential resource for anyone interested in biomass combustion and co-firing technologies varying from domestic woodstoves to utility-scale power generation. The book covers subjects including biomass fuel pre-treatment and logistics, modelling the combustion process and ash-related issues, as well as featuring an overview of the current R&D needs regarding biomass combustion.
Download or read book Advanced Gas Turbine Cycles written by J.H. Horlock and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2003-07-18 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Primarily this book describes the thermodynamics of gas turbine cycles. The search for high gas turbine efficiency has produced many variations on the simple "open circuit" plant, involving the use of heat exchangers, reheating and intercooling, water and steam injection, cogeneration and combined cycle plants. These are described fully in the text. A review of recent proposals for a number of novel gas turbine cycles is also included. In the past few years work has been directed towards developing gas turbines which produce less carbon dioxide, or plants from which the CO2 can be disposed of; the implications of a carbon tax on electricity pricing are considered. In presenting this wide survey of gas turbine cycles for power generation the author calls on both his academic experience (at Cambridge and Liverpool Universities, the Gas Turbine Laboratory at MIT and Penn State University) and his industrial work (primarily with Rolls Royce, plc.) The book will be essential reading for final year and masters students in mechanical engineering, and for practising engineers.

This book was released on 2019 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The growth of demand for energy is increasing rapidly, and the most current power generation methods are heavily dependent on fossil fuels. Using fossil fuels for power generation is not secure for two reasons. First, the fossil fuels' combustion production significantly increases greenhouse emission effects by emitting CO2" . Second, the price and availability of fossil fuels are not stable. These two reasons have led researchers, governments, and organizations to seek another source of energy that is available, secure, environmentally friendly, and renewable. Most of these specifications are available with renewable energy. The most important source of energy - also knowns as the "mother of renewable energies" - is solar energy. There are two methods to convert solar irradiation to useful energy: photovoltaic cells and concentrated solar collectors. Because of the low performance and high cost of photovoltaic cells, they are avoided. Therefore, concentrated solar power collectors are the best choice to convert solar energy to heat which can then be used to drive heat engines. There are many engines that are used for power production. A promising one, which also is suitable with renewable energy, is the gas turbine engine. The main advantages of gas turbines are its simplicity, fuel flexibility, low emissions, low maintenance cost, high power density, small size, and low water consumption. Solar energy cannot be a standalone energy source for the heat engine because of solar radiation fluctuation due to weather conditions. Therefore, a hybrid concept is needed to eliminate the disadvantages of both solar energy and fossil fuel combustion. Over the past decade, most research on hybrid solar gas turbines has emphasized using fossil fuels alternatively with solar energy. In the absence of fossil fuels, the solar power generation cannot fulfill the electricity demand. Therefore, seeking another source of renewable energy is valuable to compensate for the shortage of power generation. Using biogas with solar energy instead of fossil fuels like natural gas is the best idea to have electricity from 100% renewable energy sources. That will also eliminate the disadvantages of fossil fuel combustion, such as its cost and CO2 emission. Most studies in the field of hybrid power generation have only focused on either solar or biogas alone. In addition, no research has combined solar and biogas as a form of hybrid power generation or specifically investigated the solar-biogas hybrid micro gas turbine. Additionally, far too little attention has been paid to the potential of using a hybrid of biogas and solar energy for power generation. In this research, the thermodynamic model for the solar-biogas hybrid micro gas turbine is developed and its performance is investigated using Aspen-HYSYS software. The impact of the solar tower technology and the solar share fluctuations on the system performance are studied as well. The energy and exergy analysis for the solar-biogas hybrid micro gas turbine are conducted. The results revealed solar-biogas hybrid micro gas turbine is a future promising technology and it is economically feasible and environmentally friendly.
