Some design methods including direct integration using process streams and indirect integration using intermediate-fluid circuits, i.e., steam, dowtherms and hot water, have been proposed during last few decades. Indirect heat integration is preferred when the heat sources and sinks are separated in independent plants with rather long distance. This improves energy efficiency by adaption of intermediate fluid circle which acts as a utility provider for plants in a symbiotic network. However, there are some significant factors ignored in conventional TSHI, i.e. the investment of pipeline, cost of pumping and heat loss. These factors simultaneously determine the possibility and performance of heat integration. This work presents a new methodology for indirect heat integration in low temperature range using hot water circuit as intermediate-fluid medium. The new methodology enables the targeting of indirect heat integration across plants considering the factors mentioned earlier. An MINLP model with economic objective is established and solved. The optimization results give the mass flow rate of intermediate-fluid, diameter of pipeline, the temperature of the circuits and the matches of heat exchanger networks(HENS) automatically. Finally, the application of this proposed methodology is illustrated with a case study.展开更多

In this study, the MRT differences (MRT ratios) between the coarse particles and the fine particles were investigated in a continuous fluidized bed with a side exit by varying the superficial gas velocity, feed composition and particle size ratio, The results show that the MRT ratio increases firstly and then decreases with increasing the gas velocity. By controlling the gas velocity and the feed composi tion of coarse particles, the MRT ratio can be modulated from 1.8 to 10.5 at the gas velocity of 1.0 m-s -1 for the binary mixture with the size ratio of 2.2. The MRT ratio can reach to - 12 at the gas velocity of 1.2 m. s for the particle size ratio of 3.3. The present study has endeavored to obtain fundamental data for an effective plant operation to meet the need of synchronously complete conversion of particles with different sizes during the film diffusion controlling reaction.展开更多

An Aspen Plus simulation has been developed to evaluate the effect of various working fluids on the net heat pump efficiency over a wide range of turbine inlet temperatures between 50℃ and 250℃. One hundred eight (108) refi'igerants were investigated from the environmental classifications of Hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFC), Hydrofluorocarbons (HFC), Chlorofluorocarbons (CFC) and Hydrocarbons (HC) with boiling points between -88.65 ℃ and 110.65℃. Net efficiency, which ranged from 0.1% to 25.8% in this work tends to increases with the temperature of the waste heat. Results of the present study demonstrate that working fluid R41 (with source temperature of 44 ℃) provides the maximum efficiency among those evaluated. Refrigerants R13B1 and R32 provide the best efficiency for waste heat source temperatures ranges 60 - 67 ℃ and 68 - 78℃ respectively. Ammonia shows the highest efficiency from 79℃ to 132 ℃. Refrigerants R31, R21, 17,30 and benzene perform well in the temperature ranges 133-151 ℃, 152-178 ℃, 179-236℃ and 237-250 ℃respectively. The optimal heat pump systems are applied to the hybrid copper sulfate-copper oxide thermochemical cycle for hydrogen production from water. 100.8 MW of electrical energy is produced, which increased the efficiency from 24.1% to 25.9%.展开更多

A recirculation flow type casing treatment is effective for flow range enhancement of centrifugal compressors. Two ring grooves on a suction pipe and a shroud casing wall are connected by means of an annular passage and stable recirculation flow is formed at small flow rates from the downstream groove toward the upstream groove through the annular bypass. The shape of baseline recirculation flow type casing is modified and optimized by using a multi-point optimization code with a metamodel assisted evolutionary algorithm embedding a commercial CFD code CFX from ANSYS. The numerical optimization results give the optimized design of casing with improving adiabatic efficiency in wide operating flow rate range. Sensitivity analysis of design parameters as a function of efficiency has been performed. R is found that the optimized casing design provides optimized recirculation flow rate, in which an increment of entropy rise is minimized at grooves and passages of the rotating impeller.展开更多
