Kawasaki URA Reheat Turbine Plant for LNG Carriers

FLNG compared to LNG carriers Requirements and recommendations for LNG production facilities and re-gas units Master of Science Thesis

An increasing price and demand for natural gas has made it possible to explore remote gas fields. Traditional offshore production platforms for natural gas have been exporting the partially processed natural gas to shore, where it is further processed to permit consumption by end-users. Such an approach is possible where the gas field is located within a reasonable distance from shore or from a...

Thermodynamic performance evaluation of combustion gas turbine cogeneration system with reheat

This communication presents thermodynamic methodology for the performance evaluation of combustion gas turbine cogeneration system with reheat. The energetic and exergetic efficiencies have been defined. The effects of process steam pressure and pinch point temperature used in the design of heat recovery steam generator, and reheat on energetic and exergetic efficiencies have been investigated....

A comparative study of sloshing in liquefied natural gas (LNG) carriers according the classification codes

This paper assesses the design guidelines of different classification codes for the liquefied natural gas carriers considering the effect of liquid sloshing. With regard the increasing importance of LNG carriers in today’s marine transportation, and also considering that the marine accidents involve significant loss, classification societies by regulating national and international standards ai...

Modeling and Simulation of Main Control Valve Mechanism of LNG Ship Steam Turbine

A mathematical model and simulation analysis on main control valve mechanism of LNG ship steam turbine are carried out. A reasonable modeling division of main control valve mechanism is achieved in accordance with the idea of modular modeling, and all the models are established respectively. The modeling division includes cam lifting mechanism, oil actuator and double-valve body. The state spac...
