초록

초임계 이산화탄소($S-CO_2$) 사이클은 소형화된 터보기계 및 열교환기를 통해서 작은 공간에서도 높은 열효율로 전력을 생산할 수 있는 잠재력을 가진 것으로 평가되고 있으며, 최근 이에 대한 관심이 증가하고 있다. 원자력 및 태양열(CSP) 분야에서 $S-CO_2$ 사이클에 대한 연구 결과가 다수 소개되어 온 반면, 폐열 분야에 대한 연구 결과는 상대적으로 많지 않다. 본 연구에서는 폐열 회수 응용 분야에 있어서, 예열에 의한 $S-CO_2$ 사이클의 성능 향상 가능성을 살피기 위하여, 재생 $S-CO_2$ 브레이튼 사이클과 예열기를 갖는 재생 $S-CO_2$ 브레이튼 사이클을 모델링하고 시뮬레이션 하였다. 시뮬레이션 결과, 순출력을 극대화시키는 최적 $CO_2$ 분기율이 존재함을 확인하였다. 본 연구의 시뮬레이션 조건 하에서, 예열기에 의한 순출력 향상은 약 16-26%로 계산되었다.

In response to the growing interest in supercritical carbon dioxide ($S-CO_2$) power cycle technology because of its potential enhancement in compactness and efficiency, the $S-CO_2$ cycles have been studied intensively in the fields of nuclear power, concentrated solar power (CSP), and fossil fuel power generation. Despite this interest, there are relatively few studies on waste heat recovery applications. In this study, the $S-CO_2$ cycle that has a split flow with preheating was modeled and simulated. The variation in the power was investigated with respect to the changes in the value of a design parameter. Under the simulation conditions considered in this study, it was confirmed that the design parameter has an optimal value that can maximize the power in the $S-CO_2$ power cycle that has a split flow with preheating.
