The ammonia-water based power generation cycle utilizing liquefied natural gas (LNG) as its heat sink has attracted much attention, since the ammonia-water cycle has many thermodynamic advantages in conversion of low-grade heat source in the form of sensible energy and LNG has a great cold energy. In this paper, we carry out thermodynamic performance analysis of a combined power generation cycle which is consisted of an ammonia-water regenerative Rankine cycle and LNG power generation cycle. LNG is able to condense the ammonia-water mixture at a very low condensing temperature in a heat exchanger, which leads to an increased power output. Based on the thermodynamic models, the effects of the key parameters such as source temperature, ammonia concentration and turbine inlet pressure on the characteristics of system are throughly investigated. The results show that the thermodynamic performance of the ammonia-water power generation cycle can be improved by the LNG cold energy and there exist an optimum ammonia concentration to reach the maximum system net work production.

thermodynamic cycle analysis has been performed for the power generation systems to utilize the cold energy of liquefied natural gas (LNG). The power cycle used the air or water at room temperature as a heat source and the LNG at cryogenic temperature as a heat sink. Among manypossible configurations of the cycle. the open Rankine cycle. and the closed Brayton cycle, and the closed Rankine cycle are selected for the basic analysis because of their practical importance. The power output per unit mass of LNG has been analytically calculated for various design parameters such as the pressure ratio. the mass flow rate. the adiabatic efficiency. the heat exchanger effectiveness. or the working fluid. The optimal conditions for the parameters are presented to maximize the power output and the design considerations are discussed. It is concluded that the open Rankine cycle is the most recormmendable both in thermodynamic efficency and in practice.

The thermodynamic second law analysis, which means available energy or exergy analysis, for the indicated performance of Otto cycle engine has been carried out. Each operating process of the engine is simplified and modeled into the thermodynamic cycle. The calculation of the lost work and exergy through each process has been done with the thermodynamic relations and experimental data. The experimental data were measured from the test of single cylinder Otto cycle engine which operated at 2500 rpm, WOT(Wide Open Throttle) and MBT(Minimum advanced spark timing for Best Torque) condition with different fuels: gasoline, methanol and mixture of butane-methanol called M90. Experimental data such as cylinder pressure, air and fuel flow rate, exhaust gas temperature, inlet gas temperature and etc. were used for the analysis. The proposed model and procedure of the analysis are verified through the comparison of the work done in the study with experimental results. The calculated results show that the greatest lost work is generated during combustion process. And the lost work during expansion, exhaust, compression and induction process follows in order.

The recently proposed Kalina based power and cooling cogeneration cycles (KPCCCs) have shown improvement in the energy utilization of the system compared to the basic Kalina cycle. This paper suggests a combined tri-cogeneration system for power, heating and cooling based on the Kalina cycle. And thermodynamic performances of the suggested system based on the first and second thermodynamic laws are parametrically investigated with respect to the ammonia mass fraction and the boiler pressure. Results showed that the thermodynamic performance of the system could be greatly improved compared to the former KPCCCs.

The SI thermochemical cycle process accomplishes water splitting through distinctive three chemical reactions. We focused on thermodynamic models applicable to the process. Recently, remarkable models based on the assumed ionic species have been developed to describe highly nonideal behavior on the liquid phase reactions. ElecNRTL models with ionic reactions were proposed in order to provide reliable process simulation results for phase equilibrium calculations in Section II and III. In this study, the current thermodynamic models of SI thermochemical cycle process were briefly described and the calculation results of the applied ElecNRTL models for phase equilibrium calculations were illustrated for binary systems.

해양온도차발전용 유기랭킨사이클은 해양의 표층수와 심층수사이의 온도차를 이용하여 발전하는 사이클이다. 작동유체는 유기랭킨사이클의 열역학적 성능에 있어 중요한 요소이다. 유기랭킨사이클의 열역학적 분석방법으로 핀치포인트분석이 있다. 본 연구는 열교환기내 핀치포인트온도차의 변화와 열원 및 열침의 출구온도의 변화에 따른 열역학적 성능분석을 수행하였다. 핀치포인트분석법에 따라 설계한 해양온도차발전용 단순랭킨사이클에 7종의 단일 작동유체를 적용하여 열역학적 성능을 분석하였다. 성능분석결과 열교환기에서 핀치포인트온도차와 열원 및 열침의 온도변화가 작을수록 사이클 총 비가역성 및 총 엑서지 파괴인자가 감소하였으며, 제2법칙 효율은 상승하였다. 또한 비가역성은 열역학적 변화가 발생한 곳에서 크게 변화하였다. RE245fa2는 선정한 작동유체 중에서 가장 우수한 열역학적 성능을 보여주었으며, 모든 작동유체의 성능은 유사하였다. 열교환기 및 작동유체 선정에 있어 열역학적 성능과 함께 다양한 요소들에 대해서도 엄밀한 이론적 근거가 필요하다.
