Analysis of the dual-fuel combined cycle power plants with a parallel operating scheme efficiency

analysis of power in the network society

اندیشمندان و صاحب نظران علوم اجتماعی بر این باورند که مرحله تازه ای در تاریخ جوامع بشری اغاز شده است. ویژگیهای این جامعه نو را می توان پدیده هایی از جمله اقتصاد اطلاعاتی جهانی ، هندسه متغیر شبکه ای، فرهنگ مجاز واقعی ، توسعه حیرت انگیز فناوری های دیجیتال، خدمات پیوسته و نیز فشردگی زمان و مکان برشمرد. از سوی دیگر قدرت به عنوان موضوع اصلی علم سیاست جایگاه مهمی در روابط انسانی دارد، قدرت و بازتولید...

Environmental-economic evaluation of sugar cane bagasse gasification power plants versus combined-cycle gas power plants

Approximately 2.4 million tons of bagasse are produced each year in Iran, most of which are currently treated as waste adding to serious environmental concerns. Application of bagasse for energy production is a sustainable solution to supply the required energy within the sugar refineries and export the surplus electricity to the grid. Currently, the energy demand in Iranian sugar mills is main...

Semi-batch Chemical-looping Reactors Integrated with Combined Cycle Power Plants Operating at Transient Electricity Demand

Chemical-looping combustion (CLC) is a promising process for power generation with low energy penalty and in-situ CO2 capture. In this work, we focus on the integration of high-pressure, fixed-bed CLC reactors with combined cycle (CC) power plants. We deal with the discontinuous operation of fixedbed reactors and the dynamic simulation of CLC-CC power plants, which is nontrivial. Modern power p...

Thermodynamics of combined-cycle electric power plants

Published data imply an average thermal efficiency of about 0.34 for U.S. electricity generating plants. With clever use of thermodynamics and technology, modern gas and steam turbines can be coupled, to effect dramatic efficiency increases. These combined-cycle power plants now reach thermal efficiencies in excess of 0.60. It is shown how the laws of thermodynamics make this possible. VC 2012 ...
