Useful work is extracted during an isobaric expansion process, i.e., without a polytropic gas/vapour expansion accompanied by a pressure decrease typical of state-of-the-art piston engines, turbines, etc. This distinctive feature permits isobaric expansion machines to serve as very simple and inexpensive heat-driven pumps and compressors as well as heat-to-shaft-power converters with desired speed/torque. Commercial application of such machines, however, is scarce, mainly due to a low efficiency. This article aims to revive the long-known concept by proposing important modifications to make IE machines competitive and cost-effective alternatives to state-of-the-art heat conversion technologies. Experimental and theoretical results supporting the isobaric expansion technology are presented and promising potential applications, including emerging power generation methods, are discussed.

One of those is the group of the so called hot air engines. This paper introduces their world, also introduces the new kind of machine that was developed and built at Department of Chemical Machinery, Institute of Energy and Chemical Machinery, University of Miskolc. Emphasizing the novelty of construction and the working principle are explained. Also the mathematical model of this new engine was prepared and compared to the real model of engine. Keywords: Hot, Air, Engine, Mathematical model 1. Introduction There are three types of volumetric heat engines: the internal combustion engines; steam engines; and hot air engines. The first one is well known, because it is on zenith nowadays. The steam machines are also well known, because their time has just passed, even the elder ones could see those in use. But the hot air engines are forgotten. Our aim is to consider that one. The history of hot air engines is 200 years old.

  • Section 15-6: Thermodynamic Cycles
    Answer to Essential Question 15.5: The ideal gas law tells us that temperature is proportional to PV. for state 2 in both processes we are considering, so the temperature in state 2 is the same in both cases. , and all three factors on the right-hand side are the same for the two processes, so the change in internal energy is the same (+360 J, in fact). Because the gas does no work in the isochoric process, and a positive amount of work in the isobaric process, the First Law tells us that more heat is required for the isobaric process (+600 J versus +360 J). 15-6 Thermodynamic Cycles Many devices, such as car engines and refrigerators, involve taking a thermodynamic system through a series of processes before returning the system to its initial state. Such a cycle allows the system to do work (e.g., to move a car) or to have work done on it so the system can do something useful (e.g., removing heat from a fridge). Let’s investigate this idea. EXPLORATION 15.6 – Investigate a thermodynamic cycle One cycle of a monatomic ideal gas system is represented by the series of four processes in Figure 15.15. The process taking the system from state 4 to state 1 is an isothermal compression at a temperature of 400 K. Complete Table 15.1 to find Q, W, and for each process, and for the entire cycle.

  • Thermal Equilibrium State of the World Oceans
    Thermal equilibrium state of the ocean Rui Xin Huang Department of Physical Oceanography Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution Woods Hole, MA 02543, USA April 24, 2010 Abstract The ocean is in a non-equilibrium state under the external forcing, such as the mechanical energy from wind stress and tidal dissipation, plus the huge amount of thermal energy from the air-sea interface and the freshwater flux associated with evaporation and precipitation. In the study of energetics of the oceanic circulation it is desirable to examine how much energy in the ocean is available. In order to calculate the so-called available energy, a reference state should be defined. One of such reference state is the thermal equilibrium state defined in this study. 1. Introduction Chemical potential is a part of the internal energy. Thermodynamics of a multiple component system can be established from the definition of specific entropy η . Two other crucial variables of a system, including temperature and specific chemical potential, can be defined as follows 1 ⎛⎞∂η ⎛⎞∂η = ⎜⎟, μi =−Tin⎜⎟, = 1,2,..., , (1) Te m ⎝⎠∂ vm, i ⎝⎠∂ i ev, where e is the specific internal energy, v is the specific volume, mi and μi are the mass fraction and chemical potential for the i-th component. For a multiple component system, the change in total chemical potential is the sum of each component, dc , where c is the mass fraction of each component. The ∑i μii i mass fractions satisfy the constraint c 1 . Thus, the mass fraction of water in sea ∑i i = water satisfies dc=− c , and the total chemical potential for sea water is wi∑iw≠ N −1 ∑()μμiwi− dc .

Union St, Pasadena CA 91103 *Corresponding author: [email protected] Keywords: Stirling engine, waste heat recovery, concentrating solar power, biomass power generation, low-temperature power generation, distributed generation ABSTRACT This paper covers the design, performance optimization, build, and test of a 25 kW Stirling engine that has demonstrated > 60% of the Carnot limit for thermal to electrical conversion efficiency at test conditions of 329 °C hot side temperature and 19 °C rejection temperature. These results were enabled by an engine design and construction that has minimal pressure drop in the gas flow path, thermal conduction losses that are limited by design, and which employs a novel rotary drive mechanism. Features of this engine design include high-surface- area heat exchangers, nitrogen as the working fluid, a single-acting alpha configuration, and a design target for operation between 150 °C and 400 °C. 1 1. INTRODUCTION Since 2006, Cool Energy, Inc. (CEI) has designed, fabricated, and tested five generations of low-temperature (150 °C to 400 °C) Stirling engines that drive internally integrated electric alternators. The fifth generation of engine built by Cool Energy is rated at 25 kW of electrical power output, and is trade-named the ThermoHeart® Engine. Sources of low-to-medium temperature thermal energy, such as internal combustion engine exhaust, industrial waste heat, flared gas, and small-scale solar heat, have relatively few methods available for conversion into more valuable electrical energy, and the thermal energy is usually wasted.

  • The First Law of Thermodynamics Continued Pre-Reading: §19.5 Where We Are
    Lecture 7 The first law of thermodynamics continued Pre-reading: §19.5 Where we are The pressure p, volume V, and temperature T are related by an equation of state. For an ideal gas, pV = nRT = NkT For an ideal gas, the temperature T is is a direct measure of the average kinetic energy of its 3 3 molecules: KE = nRT = NkT tr 2 2 2 3kT 3RT and vrms = (v )av = = r m r M p Where we are We define the internal energy of a system: UKEPE=+∑∑ interaction Random chaotic between atoms motion & molecules For an ideal gas, f UNkT= 2 i.e. the internal energy depends only on its temperature Where we are By considering adding heat to a fixed volume of an ideal gas, we showed f f Q = Nk∆T = nR∆T 2 2 and so, from the definition of heat capacity Q = nC∆T f we have that C = R for any ideal gas. V 2 Change in internal energy: ∆U = nCV ∆T Heat capacity of an ideal gas Now consider adding heat to an ideal gas at constant pressure. By definition, Q = nCp∆T and W = p∆V = nR∆T So from ∆U = Q W − we get nCV ∆T = nCp∆T nR∆T − or Cp = CV + R It takes greater heat input to raise the temperature of a gas a given amount at constant pressure than constant volume YF §19.4 Ratio of heat capacities Look at the ratio of these heat capacities: we have f C = R V 2 and f + 2 C = C + R = R p V 2 so C p γ = > 1 CV 3 For a monatomic gas, CV = R 3 5 2 so Cp = R + R = R 2 2 C 5 R 5 and γ = p = 2 = =1.67 C 3 R 3 YF §19.4 V 2 Problem An ideal gas is enclosed in a cylinder which has a movable piston.
