  2. 1. Thermodynamic properties of humid air and their application in advanced power generation cycles

    Author : Xiaoyan Ji; Jinyue Yan; Umberto Desideri; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; air-water mixture; humid air; properties; wet cycles; dry air; water; enthalpy; entropy; heat capacity; density; evaporative gas turbine; compressed air energy storage; Chemical engineering; Kemiteknik;

    Abstract : Water or steam is added into the working fluid (often air) in gas turbines to improve the performance of gas turbine cycles. A typical application is the humidified gas turbine that has the potential to give high efficiencies, high specific power output, low emissions and low specific investment. READ MORE

    Abstract : Solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs), working at high temperatures with an incomplete fuel oxidation process, have become an interesting candidate for combination with conventional power generation technology, such as gas turbines, in order to develop power plants that are both functional and efficient. An absolute condition for successful analysis and optimisation of such plants is the existence of reliable simulation tools. READ MORE
