  • Turbocompound Reheat Gas Turbine Combined Cycle 2015
    INFRASTRUCTURE MINING & METALS NUCLEAR, SECURITY & ENVIRONMENTAL OIL, GAS & CHEMICALS Turbocompound Reheat Gas Turbine Combined Cycle 2015 Turbocompound Reheat Gas Turbine Combined Cycle S. Can Gülen Mark S. Boulden Bechtel Infrastructure Power POWER-GEN INTERNATIONAL 2015 December 8 - 10, 2015 Las Vegas Convention Center Las Vegas, NV USA ABSTRACT This paper discusses a new power generation cycle based on the fundamental thermodynamic concepts of constant volume combustion and reheat. The turbo- compound reheat gas turbine combined cycle (TC-RHT GTCC) comprises three pieces of rotating equipment: A turbo-compressor and two prime movers, i.e., a reciprocating gas engine and an industrial (heavy duty) gas turbine. Ideally, the cycle is proposed as the foundation of a customized power plant design of a given size and performance by combining different prime movers with new "from the blank sheet" designs. Nevertheless, a compact power plant based on the TC-RHT cycle can also be constructed by combining off-the-shelf equipment with modifications for immediate implementation. The paper describes the underlying thermodynamic principles, representative cycle calculations and value proposition as well as requisite modifications to the existing hardware. The operational philosophy governing plant start-up, shut-down and loading is described in detail. Also included in the paper is a 110 MW reference power block concept with 57+% net efficiency. The concept has been developed using a pre-engineered standard block approach and is amenable to simple “module-by-module” construction including easy shipment of individual components. POWER-GEN INTERNATIONAL 2015 Page 1 OF 26 INTRODUCTION Brief History Internal combustion engines can be classified into two major categories based on the heat addition portion of their respective thermodynamic cycles: “constant volume” and “constant pressure” heat addition engines (cycles) [1].

  • The TSR-2: a BRITISH STORY with an AUSTRALIAN CHAPTER
    RAAF Radschool Association Magazine – Vol 32 Page 15 The TSR-2: A BRITISH STORY WITH AN AUSTRALIAN CHAPTER With the era of the F-111 coming to a close, it is timely to reflect on the development of this aircraft and the rivals that existed at the time of its selection. The principal competitor was the British Aircraft Corporation’s Tactical Strike and Reconnaissance (TSR-2) aircraft. However, as indicated by Sir Sydney Camm’s comment, the development and subsequent abrupt cancellation of the project in 1965 was politically charged. While it was suggested at the time that Australia played a key role in the demise of the TSR-2, there appears to have been many other contributors to its downfall. From the mid 1950s, the RAF and subsequently the RAAF identified the need to replace the Canberra bomber, focusing on a nuclear-capable aircraft. Given the rapid advances in anti-aircraft weaponry capability, having supersonic strike aircraft that could slip under radar surveillance was seen as a priority. The development of the TSR-2 was also the result of the British Government’s focus in the late 1950s on rationalising the eight main British aircraft manufacturers that then existed. On New Year’s Day 1959, Vickers-Armstrong and English Electric, amalgamated as the new British Aircraft Corporation (BAC), were awarded the contract to combine their earlier individual designs into the TSR-2. Later that year Bristol- Siddeley were awarded the contract for development of the Olympus engines which were to power the aircraft. Like the development of any aircraft, the TSR-2 had its technical problems.

  • The Application Rationale for Applying the Regenerative Rankine Cycle Steam Engine to the Modern Automobile
    THE APPLICATION RATIONALE FOR APPLYING THE REGENERATIVE RANKINE CYCLE STEAM ENGINE TO THE MODERN AUTOMOBILE. The regenerative Rankine cycle positive displacement steam engine is ideal for powering any road vehicle. The engine speed/torque output closely matches vehicle demand; sufficient torque is generated that most vehicles require no transmission. This external combustion engine needs no pollution control hardware or electronics to provide totally clean combustion when burning pure carbon neutral bio fuels. Historically, material limitations have prevented vehicular steam power from receiving the advanced development and higher level of operation needed to compete with internal combustion engines. Only in huge powerhouses has the Rankine steam cycle been taken to the highest level of efficiency possible with existing materials; working with supercritical pressure of 3400-4400 psi and peak superheat temperature of 1400° F. The commercial availability of better materials makes a good reason to reassess the vehicular Rankine cycle steam engine. (Definition: Supercritical steam generators commonly used for electrical power generation typically operate at, or over, the supercritical pressure of 3206 psi at 706°F. At such high pressure and temperature boiling ceases to occur because the pressure is above the critical point where the bubbles form. Supercritical pressure steam generators are classified as “boilers” yet no "boiling" actually occurs.) By James Crank and Ken Helmick 1-25-15 INTRODUCTION. In ancient Greece, Heron of Alexandra used the heat from fire to produce work. Since the 16th Century many working cycles have been invented and used to produce shaft power from heat. The first real steam powered device was invented by Thomas Savery in 1698 to pump water from mines in England.

Photo: Liam Marshall TABLE OF CONTENTS Bombers / Attack Fighters Multirole Helicopters Reconnaissance / Surveillance Trainers OV-101 Enterprise Concorde Aircraft Restoration Hangar Photo: Liam Marshall BOMBERS/ATTACK The basic mission of the aircraft carrier is to project the U.S. Navy’s military strength far beyond our shores. These warships are primarily deployed to deter aggression and protect American strategic interests. Should deterrence fail, the carrier’s bombers and attack aircraft engage in vital operations to support other forces. The collection includes the 1940-designed Grumman TBM Avenger of World War II. Also on display is the Douglas A-1 Skyraider, a true workhorse of the 1950s and ‘60s, as well as the Douglas A-4 Skyhawk and Grumman A-6 Intruder, stalwarts of the Vietnam War.

    2013 DOE Merit Review 2013 KIVA Development David Carrington Los Alamos National Laboratory May 13, 2013 Project ID # ACE014 This presentation does not contain any proprietary, confidential, or otherwise restricted information LA-UR-13-21976 2013 DOE Overview Merit Review Timeline Barriers • Improve understanding of the fundamentals of • 10/01/09 fuel injection, fuel-air mixing, thermodynamic combustion losses, and in-cylinder combustion/ • 09/01/14 emission formation processes over a range of combustion temperature for regimes of interest • 65% complete by adequate capability to accurately simulate these processes • Engine efficiency improvement and engine- Budget out emissions reduction • Minimization of engine technology development • Total project funding to date: – User friendly (industry friendly) software, robust, accurate, more predictive, & quick meshing – 2000K – 640K in FY 12 Partners – Contractor (Universities) share ~40% • University of New Mexico- Dr. Juan Heinrich • University of Purdue, Calumet - Dr. Xiuling • Funding to date for FY13 - 210K Wang • Funding anticipated FY13 – 763K • University of Nevada, Las Vegas - Dr. Darrell W. Pepper 2 2013 DOE FY 09 to FY 14 KIVA-Development Merit Review Objectives • Robust, Accurate Algorithms in a Modular Object-Oriented code– • Relevance to accurately predicting engine processes to enable better understanding of, flow, thermodynamics, sprays, in easy to use software for moderate computer platforms – More accurate modeling requires new algorithms and their correct implementation. – Developing more robust and accurate algorithms • To understand better combustion processes in internal engines – Providing a better mainstay tool • improving engine efficiencies and • help in reducing undesirable combustion products. – Newer and mathematically rigorous algorithms will allow KIVA to meet the future and current needs for combustion modeling and engine design.
