Exergy Analysis and Evaluation of Cryogenic Nitrogen Production Process

초저온 질소생상공정의 Exergy 해석 및 평가

The exergy method is used for analysis and evaluation of the cryogenic nitrogen production process which is operated by expansion turbene and liquid nitrogen. The exergy loss and thermodynamic effeciency are calculated for the each process. Also the operating efficiency and the exergy distribution are examined for each unit of proces. The optimal conditions to minimize the exergy loss of nitrogen column are found that nitrogen recovery ratio is maximum and operating pressure is 5.0 kg/cm2g. The exergy method can be used to design a plant and to evaluate its process.
