  1. 1. Evaporative Cycles - in Theori and in Practise

    Author : Per M Rosén; Kraftverksteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Motors and propulsion systems; Trigeneration; Combustion Engines; Gas Turbines; CHAT; HAM; HAT; Evaporative Cycles; EvGT; Motorer; framdrivningssystem; Thermal engineering; applied thermodynamics; Termisk teknik; termodynamik;

    Abstract : The thesis is based on applied research, rather closed to industrial development. The developed simulation model, for pre-design of evaporative gas turbine cycles, has been validated in a 600 kW pilot plant and in rebuilt turbo-charged diesel engines. READ MORE

  2. 2. Advanced Gas Turbine Cycles with Water-Air Mixtures as Working Fluid

    Author : Niklas Ågren; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; gas turbine cycles; HAT cycles; evaporative cycles; power generation;

    Abstract : Since the early 80's, the worldwide utilization of gas turbines for thermal power generation has increased rapidly. They have less pollution than any other major combustion energy converters. READ MORE

  3. 3. Developing Humidified Gas Turbine Cycles

    Author : Michael Bartlett; KTH; []
    Keywords : advanced gas turbine cycles; evaporative; humidified; power; heat and power;

    Abstract : As a result of their unique heat recovery properties,Humidified Gas Turbine (HGT) cycles have the potential todeliver resource-effective energy to society. The EvaporativeGas Turbine (EvGT) Consortium in Sweden has been studying thesetypes of cycles for nearly a decade, but now stands at acrossroads, with commercial demonstration remaining. READ MORE

  4. 4. Humidification in Evaporative Power Cycles

    Author : Farnosh Dalili; KTH; []
    Keywords : Gas Turbines; EvGT; HAT; Humidification; Evaporator; Saturator;

    Abstract : Evaporative gas turbine cycles (EvGT) show an exceptionalexhaust heat recovery potential, which makes them a strongcompetitor to other advanced gas turbine cycles, especiallyfrom small to intermediate sizes. Evaporative gas turbines aredistinguished by humidifying the working fluid beforecombustion at temperatures below the boiling point of water;and the heat required for evaporation of water is partly takenout of the exhaust gas.

  5. 5. 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
