Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More than 60% of the world,Äôs electricity is still produced from fossil-fired power plants. Recovering heat from flue gas, drained water, and exhaust steam which are discharged in power plants by organic Rankine cycles (ORCs) to generate power is an efficient approach to reduce fossil fuel consumption and greenhouse gas emissions. This chapter proposes conceptual ORC systems for heat recovery of drain from continuous blowdown systems, exhaust flue gas from boilers, and exhaust steam from turbines. The waste heat source temperatures range from 30 to 200¬∞C. Environmentally friendly and nonflammable working fluids including R134a, R1234ze, R236ea, R245fa, R1233zd, and R123 were selected as the working fluids. The parameters of ORC systems were optimized, and the thermodynamic performance was analyzed. The suitable ORC layouts for various kinds of heat sources including drained water, flue gas, and steam were discussed with selecting the proper working fluids. The gross power output of a coal-fired power plant can be increased up to 0.4% by an ORC using the waste heat from the boiler flue gas. The ORCs using turbine exhaust steam with the cooling water as low as 5¬∞C can generate 2,Äì3% more power for a power unit.

This book was released on 2017-11-01 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Modelling and Control of Organic Rankine Cycle Based Waste Heat Recovery Systems is a systematic study of modeling and control of ORC-based systems for waste heat recovery, bringing together rapidly developing research in this area. The organic Rankine cycle (ORC) is now commonly accepted as a viable technology to convert low grade heat in the thermal power plant, the diesel engine and the fuel cell. In response to limited reserves, increases in cost and the environmental impact of fossil fuels, the cumulative global capacity of ORC power systems for the conversion of renewable and waste thermal energy is undergoing rapid growth. Recovery utilization for low-grade heat energy has become one of the important energy-saving methods. In addition, technological advancements and cost reduction allow for competitive organic Rankine cycle machines on the market. Chapter 1 introduces the current status of organic Rankine cycle systems and reviews advances and challenges in organic Rankine cycle (ORC) systems modeling and control strategies. Chapter 2 presents the configuration of ORC power systems, analyzes the performance of ORC systems and summarizes their features, including both the operating modes and control objectives of ORC systems. Chapter 3 establishes the physical model for ORC power systems after building basic component models (evaporator, condenser, expander, receiver and pump). The model of an ORC power system is identified using input/output data. Chapter 4 designs controllers for ORC power systems operating on both, following electric power mode and waste heat mode respectively, using optimized set-points of controlled ORC power systems. Chapter 5 focuses on using simulation tools for building development systems that experimentally validate the physical model and control strategies of ORC power systems. Engineers and professionals, as well as recent graduates in the power generation industry will find this a valuable reference. Covers all of the topics related to both modeling and controller design for organic Rankine cycle systems Focuses on the approaches for creating mathematical models and controlling for the ORC systems Illustrates clearly the multi-disciplinary nature of the subject Includes an appendix of MATLAB/Simulink code for modeling and controlling ORC

Download or read book The Development and Application of a Small Scale Organic Rankine Cycle for Waste Heat Recovery written by Tzu-Chen Hung and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Power conversion systems based on organic Rankine cycles have been identified as a potential technology especially in converting low-grade waste heat into electricity as well as in small-scale biomass, solar, or geothermal power plants. The theoretical analysis can guide the ORC design, but cannot predict accurately the system performance. Actually, the operation characteristics of every component have a vital effect on the system performance. This chapter presents the detailed operation characteristic of a small-scale ORC. The effects of the operation parameters, the mixture working fluid and the operation strategy on system overall performance are addressed. It can be concluded that improving the system overall performance should give priority to increase the pressure drop. Whether the mixtures exhibit better thermodynamic performance than the pure working fluids depend on the operation parameters and mass fraction of mixtures. The mixture working fluids obtain a higher expander shaft power but a relatively higher BWR. The expander rotating speed for standalone operation strategy keeps rising from 2320 to 2983 rpm, whereas that of grid connect operation strategy keeps constant of 3600 rpm.
