Abstract:
Coupling supercritical carbon dioxide (S-CO2) Brayton cycle with Gen-IV reactor concepts could bring advantages of high compactness and efficiency. This study aims to design proper simple and recompression S-CO2 Brayton cycles working as the indirect cooling system for a mediate-temperature lead fast reactor and quantify the Brayton cycle performance with different heat rejection temperatures (from 32°C to 55°C) to investigate its potential use in different scenarios, like arid desert areas or areas with abundant water supply. High-efficiency S-CO2 Brayton cycle could offset the power conversion efficiency decrease caused by low core outlet temperature (which is 480°C in this study) and high compressor inlet temperature (which varies from 32°C to 55°C in this study). A thermodynamic analysis solver is developed to provide the analysis tool. The solver includes turbomachinery models for compressor and turbine and heat exchanger models for recuperator and precooler. The optimal design of simple Brayton cycle and recompression Brayton cycle for the lead fast reactor under water-cooled and dry-cooled conditions are carried out with consideration of recuperator temperature difference constraints and cycle efficiency. Optimal cycle efficiencies of 40.48% and 35.9% can be achieved for the recompression Brayton cycle and simple Brayton cycle under water-cooled condition. Optimal cycle efficiencies of 34.36% and 32.6% can be achieved for the recompression Brayton cycle and simple Brayton cycle under dry-cooled condition (compressor inlet temperature equals to 55°C). Increasing the dry cooling flow rate will be helpful to decrease the compressor inlet temperature. Every 5°C decrease in the compressor inlet temperature will bring 1.2% cycle efficiency increase for the recompression Brayton cycle and 0.7% cycle efficiency increase for the simple Brayton cycle. Helpful conclusions and advises are proposed for designing the Brayton cycle for mediate-temperature nuclear applications in this paper.

Abstract:
Gas Brayton cycles have been considered the next promising power cycles for microreactors. Especially the open-air and closed supercritical CO2 (S-CO2) Brayton cycles have received attention due to their high thermal efficiency and compact component sizes when compared to the steam Rankine cycle. In this research, the performances of the open-air and closed S-CO2 Brayton cycle at microreactor power range are compared with polytropic turbomachinery efficiency. When optimizing the cycle, three different optimization parameters are considered in this paper: maximum efficiency, maximum cycle specific work, and maximum of the product of both indicators. For the air Brayton cycle, the maximum of the product of both indicators allows to consider both efficiency and specific work while optimizing the cycle. However, for the S-CO2 Brayton cycle, the best performing conditions follow either maximum efficiency or the maximum cycle specific work conditions. In general, the S-CO2 power cycle should be designed and optimized to maximize the cycle specific work for commercial-scale application. The results show that the air Brayton cycle can achieve near 45% efficiency when it can couple with a microreactor with a core outlet temperature higher than 700 °C. However, the S-CO2 power cycle can still achieve above 30% efficiency when it is coupled with a microreactor with a core outlet temperature higher than 500 °C, whereas the air Brayton cycle cannot even reach breakeven condition.

Abstract:
This article deals with the thermodynamic assessment of supercritical carbon dioxide (S-CO2) Brayton power cycles. The main advantage of S-CO2 cycles is the capability of achieving higher efficiencies at significantly lower temperatures in comparison to conventional steam Rankine cycles. In the past decade, variety of configurations and layouts of S-CO2 cycles have been investigated targeting efficiency improvement. In this paper, four different layouts have been studied (with and without reheat): Simple Brayton cycle, Recompression Brayton cycle, Recompression Brayton cycle with partial cooling and the proposed layout called Recompression Brayton cycle with partial cooling and improved heat recovery (RBC-PC-IHR). Energetic and exergetic performances of all configurations were analyzed. Simple configuration is the least efficient due to poor heat recovery mechanism. RBC-PC-IHR layout achieved the best thermal performance in both reheat and no reheat configurations ( η t h = 59.7% with reheat and η t h = 58.2 without reheat at 850 °C), which was due to better heat recovery in comparison to other layouts. The detailed component-wise exergy analysis shows that the turbines and compressors have minimal contribution towards exergy destruction in comparison to what is lost by heat exchangers and heat source.

Abstract:
A wide range of air-standard Brayton and modified-Brayton power cycles are evaluated to determine their second-law efficiencies and their volume flows per unit output. A cycle with reheating is chosen for further analysis on the basis of its potential for high efficiency through exploitation of its exhaust availability (exergy) and its low volume rates. This exploitation can be had either through a conventional Rankine bottoming cycle, or through injection of the bottoming cycle steam into the Brayton turbine. The Rankine bottoming cycle is superior with respect to second-law efficiency; the cycle augmented by injected steam is superior with respect to volume flows. Examination of irreversibilities illuminates the reasons for the better efficiency of the Rankine bottoming cycle alternative.

Abstract:
Abstract The supercritical carbon dioxide (SCO2) Brayton cycle takes advantage of the special physical properties of carbon dioxide near the critical point (31.1 °C, 7.39MPa), and has higher energy conversion efficiency than the current large-scale steam power cycle. This cycle can be widely used in the field of power generation, but a lot of research work is still needed in terms of component parameters and layout under different working conditions. In this regard, the purpose of this paper is to study the influence of supercritical carbon dioxide Brayton cycle parameters on cycle efficiency and its optimization strategy. Based on the first law of thermodynamics, this paper uses Aspen Plus software to establish S-CO2 Brayton cycle system models with different circulation arrangements. In this paper, the existing algorithm of the simulation system and the newly-built algorithm are used to build the S-CO2 shunt and recompression Brayton cycle system model, and the accuracy of the model is verified with experimental data from literature. Then this paper conducts disturbance experiments on the model to study the influence of heater heating, valve opening and precooler cooling on the system, and analyze the dynamic characteristics of the system. Experimental results show that the thermal efficiency of the simple Brayton cycle is much lower than that of the recompression Brayton cycle and the split recompression Brayton cycle under higher parameters. The compressor outlet pressure and the turbine inlet temperature have an effect on the efficiency of the recompression Brayton cycle. The impact is significant, and the optimal value of the compressor shunt coefficient is between 0.5-0.7, which provides a reference for the layout optimization method of the SCO2 Brayton cycle and the optimization of the same type of power generation cycle.

Abstract:
This work presents a configuration of two regenerators in parallel for a power generation Brayton/Rankine cycle where the output power is 10 MW. The working fluids considered for the Brayton and Rankine cycles are air and water, respectively. The addition of a regenerator with the previous existing cycle of this kind resulted in the addition of a second-stage turbine in the Rankine cycle of reheat. The objective of this modification is to increase the thermal efficiency of the combined cycle. In order to examine the efficiency of the new configuration, it is performed a thermodynamic modelling and numerical simulations for both cases: a regular Brayton/Rankine cycle and the one with the proposed changes. At the end of the simulations, the two cycles are compared, and it is seen that the new configuration reaches a 0.9% higher efficiency. In addition, the vapor quality at the exit of the higher turbine is higher, reducing the required mass flow rate in 14%.

Abstract:
Supercritical CO2 (S-CO2) Brayton cycles have become an effective way in utilizing solar energy, considering their advantages. The presented research discusses a parametrized analysis and systematic comparison of three S-CO2 power cycles coupled with parabolic trough collectors. The effects of turbine inlet temperature and pressure, compressor inlet temperature, and pressure on specific work, overall efficiency, and cost of core equipment of different S-CO2 Brayton cycles are discussed. Then, the two performance criteria, including specific work and cost of core equipment, are compared, simultaneously, between different S-CO2 cycle layouts after gaining the Pareto sets from multi-objective optimizations using genetic algorithm. The results suggest that the simple recuperation cycle layout shows more excellent performance than the intercooling cycle layout and the recompression cycle layout in terms of cost, while the advantage in specific work of the intercooling cycle layout and the recompression cycle layout is not obvious. This study can be useful in selecting cycle layout using solar energy by the parabolic trough solar collector when there are requirements for the specific work and the cost of core equipment. Moreover, high turbine inlet temperature is recommended for the S-CO2 Brayton cycle using solar energy.

Abstract:
The power and efficiency of the open combined Brayton and two parallel inverse Brayton cycles are analysed and optimized based on the model established using finite-time thermodynamics in Part 1 of the current paper by adjusting the compressor inlet pressure of the two parallel inverse Brayton cycles, the mass flowrate and the distribution of pressure losses along the flow path. It is shown that the power output has a maximum with respect to the compressor inlet pressures of the two parallel inverse Brayton cycles, the air mass flowrate or any of the overall pressure drops, and the maximized power output has an additional maximum with respect to the compressor pressure ratio of the top cycle. The power output and the thermal conversion efficiency have the maximum values when the mass flowrates of the first and the second inverse Brayton cycles are the same. When the optimization is performed with the constraints of a fixed fuel flowrate and the power plant size, the power output and thermal conversion efficiency can be maximized again by properly allocating the fixed overall flow area among the compressor inlet of the top cycle and the turbine outlets of the two parallel inverse Brayton cycles. The numerical examples show the effects of design parameters on the power output and heat conversion efficiency.

Abstract:
Comparing the efficiencies of the Carnot, Stirling, Otto, Brayton and Diesel cycles can be a frustrating experience for the student. The efficiency of Carnot and Stirling cycles depends only on the ratio of the temperature extremes whereas the efficiency of Otto and Brayton cycles depends only on the compression ratio. The efficiency of a Diesel cycle is generally expressed in terms of the temperatures at the four turning points of the cycle or the volumes at these turning points. How does one actually compare the efficiencies of these thermodynamic cycles? To compare the cycles, an expression for the efficiency of the Diesel cycle will be obtained in terms of the compression ratio and the ratio of the temperature extremes of the cycle. It is found that for a fixed temperature ratio that the efficiency increases with compression ratio for the Otto, Brayton and Diesel cycles until their efficiency is the same as that of the corresponding Carnot cycle. This occurs at the point where the heat input to the cycles is zero. For a fixed compression ratio the efficiency increases with temperature ratio for the Carnot and Stirling cycles but decreases for the Diesel cycle. This is an important factor in understanding how a Diesel cycle can be made to be more efficient than an Otto cycle.

Abstract:
A combined cycle that combines AWM cycle with a nuclear closed Brayton cycle is proposed to recover the waste heat rejected from the precooler of a nuclear closed Brayton cycle in this paper. The detailed thermodynamic and economic analyses are carried out for the combined cycle. The effects of several important parameters, such as the absorber pressure, the turbine inlet pressure, the turbine inlet temperature, the ammonia mass fraction, and the ambient temperature, are investigated. The combined cycle performance is also optimized based on a multiobjective function. Compared with the closed Brayton cycle, the optimized power output and overall efficiency of the combined cycle are higher by 2.41% and 2.43%, respectively. The optimized LEC of the combined cycle is 0.73% lower than that of the closed Brayton cycle.

Abstract:
This research theme is originated from a development project that is going on in South Africa, for the design and construction of a closed cycle gas turbine plant using gas-cooled reactor as the heat source to generate 115 MW of electricity. South African Power utility company, Eskom, promotes this developmental work through its subsidiary called PBMR (Pebble Bed Modular Reactor). Some of the attractive features of this plant are the inherent and passive safety features, modular geometry, small evacuation area, small infrastructure requirements for the installation and running of the plant, small construction time, quick starting and stopping and also low operational cost. This exercise is looking at the operational aspects of a closed cycle gas turbine, the finding of which will have a direct input towards the successful development and commissioning of the plant. A thorough understanding of the fluid dynamics in this three-shaft system and its transient performance analysis were the two main objectives of this research work. A computer programme called GTSI, developed by a previous Cranfield University research student, has been used in this as a base programme for the performance analysis. Some modifications were done on this programme to improve its control abilities. The areas covered in the performance analysis are Start-up, Shutdown and Load ramping. A detailed literature survey has been conducted to learn from the helium Turbo machinery experiences, though it is very limited. A critical analysis on the design philosophy of the PBMR is also carried out as part of this research work. The performance analysis has shown the advantage, disadvantage and impact of various power modulation methods suggested for the PBMR. It has tracked the effect of the operations of the various valves included in the PBMR design. The start-up using a hot gas injection has been analysed in detail and a successful start region has been mapped. A start-up procedure is also written based on this. The analysis on the normal and emergency load rejection using various power modulation devices has been done and it stress the importance of more control facilities during full load rejection due to generator faults. A computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analysis, using commercial software, has been carried out on some geometry of the PBMR design to find out whether its flow characteristic will have any serious impact on the performance on the cycle during the load control of the plant. The analysis has demonstrated that there will not be much impact on the performance, during load control using pressure level changes, from this geometry. However, some locations in the geometry have been identified as areas where the flow is experiencing comparatively high pressure losses. Recommendations, which include modification in the physical design, were made to improve this. The CFD analysis has extended to a cascade to compare the flow behaviour of Air and Helium with an objective of using air, being inexpensive, to test the helium flow characteristic in a test rig to simulate the behavioural pattern of helium in the PBMR pressure vessel. The specification of a hypothetical test rig and the necessary scaling parameters has been derived from this exercise. This will be useful for designing test rigs during the developmental and operational stage of the PBMR project.

Abstract:
Lately, car manufacturers have been put to a big challenge to reduce the CO2 emission of their entire fleets. Norms of pollutant emissions limit the ways to achieve the desired CO2 emission goals, as some of the solutions that would lead to lower CO2 emission also lead to higher pollutant emission. Waste Heat Recovery (WHR) could be a good solution to lower the CO2 emission of the Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) without increasing the pollutant emission. In the present thesis different WHR strategies are analysed and the results suggested it would be interesting to further study the Brayton cycle machine. Air Brayton Cycle (ABC) represents a way to recover a part of the heat energy of the ICE exhaust gases and transform it into mechanical energy. Recovered mechanical energy would then be returned to the crankshaft of the ICE, thereby reducing the amount of energy that has to be liberated by combustion of fuel which lowers the fuel consumption and CO2 emission. The study of ABC started with an analysis of the ideal cycle in order to obtain the theoretical maximum of the system. The study continued with an analysis of the semi ideal cycle where all losses are taken into account only by two efficiency coefficients. This analysis showed that for the diesel engine efficiency of the ABC is very low because of the low exhaust gas temperature. For the gasoline engine the cycle could be viable when the ICE is working under steady condition and higher load. These conditions could be fulfilled when the vehicle is driven on the highway. Detailed analysis was aimed at determining the cycle main losses. They were determined to be: pumping losses, losses caused by heat transfer and mechanical losses. Taking into account these main losses along with other direct and indirect losses it was concluded that the cycle is not viable for the types of the WHR machines that were considered in this study. In order for the cycle to be viable some other either existing or new machine type should be tested, that would lower the main losses and offer good isentropic and mechanical efficiency for desired conditions.
Últimamente los fabricantes de automóviles se han puesto el gran reto de reducir la emisión de CO2 en la totalidad de sus flotas. Las nuevas normativas para la reducción de las emisiones contaminantes limitan los medios para lograr los objetivos deseados en la emisión de CO2 porque algunas de las soluciones que llevan a la reducción en la emisión de CO2 también dan lugar a un incremento en la emisión de otros contaminantes. La recuperación de calor residual (WHR) podría ser una buena solución para reducir las emisiones de CO2 del motor de combustión interna (ICE) sin poner en peligro la emisión de contaminantes. En la presente Tesis se analizaron diferentes estrategias de WHR y se concluyó que sería interesante estudiar más a fondo la máquina de ciclo Brayton. El Ciclo Brayton de Aire (ABC) permite recuperar una parte del calor de los gases de escape del ICE y transformar este calor en energía mecánica. La energía mecánica recuperada se devuelve al cigüeñal del ICE, reduciendo de ese modo la cantidad de energía que tiene que ser liberada por la combustión del combustible, lo cual permite reducir el consumo de combustible y las emisiones de CO2. En esta Tesis se estudia el ABC mediante un análisis del ciclo ideal con el fin de obtener el máximo teórico del sistema. El modelo se mejora con un análisis del ciclo semi-ideal donde se tienen en cuenta todas las pérdidas mediante el uso de dos coeficientes generales. Este análisis muestra que para el motor diesel la eficiencia del ciclo ABC es muy baja debido a la baja temperatura del gas de escape. Para el motor de gasolina el ciclo podría ser viable cuando el ICE está trabajando bajo condiciones estacionarias y una carga mayor. Estas condiciones se podrían cumplir cuando el vehículo está circulando en autopista. El análisis detallado de este ciclo tiene como objetivo determinar las pérdidas principales de ciclo. Las pérdidas principales se identificaron como: las pérdidas de bombeo, las pérdidas causadas por la transferencia de calor y las pérdidas mecánicas. Teniendo en cuenta estas pérdidas principales junto con otras pérdidas directas e indirectas, se concluyó que el ciclo no es viable para los tipos de máquinas WHR que fueron considerados en este estudio. Para que el ciclo sea viable se tiene que buscar alguna otra máquina existente o un nuevo tipo de máquina que reduzca las principales pérdidas y ofrezca un buen rendimiento isentrópico y mecánico para las condiciones deseadas.
Últimament els fabricants d'automòbils s'han posat el gran repte de reduir l'emissió de CO2 de la totalitat de les seues flotes. Les noves normatives de reducció de les emissions contaminants limiten els mitjans per assolir els objectius desitjats d'emissió de CO2 perquè algunes de les solucions que porten a la reducció en l'emissió de CO2 també donen lloc a un increment a l'emissió de altres contaminants. La recuperació de calor residual (WHR) podria ser una bona solució per reduir les emissions de CO2 del motor de combustió interna (ICE) sense posar en perill l'emissió de contaminants. En la present Tesi s'han analitzat diferents estratègies WHR i es va concloure que seria interessant estudiar més a fons el cicle Brayton. El Cicle Brayton d'Aire (ABC) representa una manera de recuperar una part de la calor dels gasos d'escapament de l'ICE i transformar calor a l'energia mecànica. L'energia mecànica recuperada es retorna al cigonyal de l'ICE reduint d'aquesta manera la quantitat d'energia que ha de ser alliberada per la combustió del combustible permitint la reducció del consum de combustible i les emissions de CO2. En aquesta Tesi s'ha començat estudiant un ABC amb una anàlisi del cicle ideal per tal d'obtenir el màxim teòric del sistema. Este model es millora amb una anàlisi del cicle semiideal on es tenen en compte totes les pèrdues amb tan sols dos coeficients d'eficiència. Aquesta anàlisi va mostrar que per al motor dièsel l'eficiència del cicle ABC és molt baixa a causa de la baixa temperatura del gas d'escapament. Per al motor de gasolina el cicle podria ser viable quan l'ICE està treballant sota condicions estacionàries i una càrrega més gran. Aquestes condicions es podrien complir quan el vehicle està circulant en autopista. L'anàlisi detallada del cicle va tenir com a objectiu determinar les pèrdues principals de cicle. Les pèrdues principals es van identificar com: les pèrdues de bombament, les pèrdues causades per la transferència de calor i les pèrdues mecàniques. Tenint en compte aquestes pèrdues principals juntament amb altres pèrdues directes i indirectes, es va concloure que el cicle no és viable per als tipus de màquines WHR que van ser considerats en aquest estudi. Perquè el cicle puga ser viable s'ha de buscar alguna altra màquina existent o un nou tipus de màquina que puga reduir les principals pèrdues i puga oferir un bon rendiment isentròpic i mecànic per a les condicions desitjades.

Abstract:
A design-point thermodynamic model of the Brayton-cycle gas-turbine under assumptions of perfect chemical equilibrium is described. This approach is novel to the best knowledge of the author. The model uniquely derives an optimum work balance between power turbine and nozzle as a function of flight conditions and propulsor efficiency. The model may easily be expanded to allow analysis and comparison of arbitrary cycles using any combination of fuel and oxidizer. The model allows the consideration of engines under a variety of conditions, from sea level/static to >20 km altitude and flight Mach numbers greater than 4. Isentropic or polytropic turbomachinery component efficiency standards may be used independently for compressor, gas generator turbine and power turbine. With a methodology based on the paper by M.V. Casey, “Accounting for losses” (2007), and using Bridgman’s partial differentials , the model uniquely describes the properties of a gas turbine solely by reference to the properties of the gas mixture passing through the engine. Turbine cooling is modelled using a method put forward by Kurzke. Turboshaft, turboprop, separate exhaust turbofan and turbojet engines may be modelled. Where applicable, optimisation of the power turbine and exhaust nozzle work split for flight conditions and component performances is automatically undertaken. The model is implemented via a VB.net code, which calculates thermodynamic states and controls the NASA CEA code for the calculation of thermodynamic properties at those states. Microsoft Excel® is used as a graphical user interface. It is explained that comprehensive design-point cycle analysis may allow novel approaches to off-design analysis, including engine health management, and that further development may allow the automation of cycle design, possibly leading to the discovery of opportunities for novel cycles.

Includes bibliographical references (p. 159-160).
The supercritical carbon dioxide (SC0₂) power conversion system has been suggested for use with many of the Generation IV nuclear reactors. The SC0₂ cycle is highly attractive because of its low operating temperatures and high efficiency associated with working near the critical point of CO2. Unfortunately, the appealing features of using C0₂ near its critical point create complications in control. The Transient SC0₂ Cycles Code (TSCYCO) has been developed as a transient simulation control design and cycle scoping code for the recompression SC0₂ Brayton cycle. It is based off of the SC0₂ Power Systems (SCPS) code, and incorporates many improvements and modifications. Written in FORTRAN 90, TSCYCO uses a lumped parameter model and a momentum integral model approach. The code uses a semi-implicit solution process and implements Gaussian elimination to solve the system of equations. Transient behavior of the printed circuit heat exchangers is determined via the previously developed code HXMOD. Turbomachinery performance is modeled using the Real Gas Radial Compressor (RGRC) code with a scaling scheme for off-design conditions. Currently, TSCYCO has the capability of modeling several transients, including: loss of external load (LOEL), power load change, and cycle low-temperature change. Simulations show that TSCYCO can be run at quasi-steady state for an indefinite period of time. In the case of a 10% LOEL, the axial turbine experiences choke as a result of shaft overspeed. Turbine choke can be avoided if one bypasses more flow during LOEL.
(cont.) Moreover, one can incorporate more accurate axial turbine performance models to account for shaft speed variation. TSCYCO experiences instabilities when operated too closely to the critical point of C0₂. This could be remedied with a more robust Runge-Kutta solution method.

Abstract:
The rapid development in nuclear technology worldwide has created the need for an efficient power conversion unit to extract the energy from the new generation IV reactors. The generation IV reactor currently under investigation in South Africa is the PBMR–DPP (Pebble Bed Modular Reactor Demonstration Power Plant) based on the High temperature Reactor Modul. This reactor produces 200 MW of thermal energy at inlet/outlet temperatures of 250oC/700oC. Due to the reactor layout and accompanying thermal fluid path design outlet temperatures in the order of 900oC would be possible. This dissertation is aimed at the design and optimisation of a Brayton–Rankine combined cycle for use with a PBMR–DPP. The combination of these two cycles improves the thermal efficiency due to the large difference between the maximum and minimum temperatures. The Brayton and Rankine cycles will be developed independently and optimised to ensure that the best possible efficiency is gained from the combined cycle. The heat energy available in the reactor is the input parameter for the Brayton cycle, After the Brayton cycle's pressure ratio has been optimised the heat rejected to the Rankine cycle will be known. The aim of the design is to determine if 50% combined cycle thermal efficiency is achievable. The initial sizing calculation of the cycle parameters has been done in a software package that has been developed for use in the thermo–hydraulics field. Engineering Equation Solver (EES) makes use of an iterative process to simultaneously solve the set of equations. The results obtained from EES were verified by Microsoft Excel with a specialised macro installed for thermo–hydraulics. A very specific methodology was used to solve the Brayton cycle. Traditionally the Brayton cycle is optimised for maximum cycle efficiency to ultimately obtain the best combined cycle efficiency. Very complex cycles such as reheat and multi–shaft Brayton cycles were used. The solution methodology used in this dissertation is to optimise the simple Brayton cycle for the maximum specific work produced in the cycle. The large amount of heat at the turbine outlet is then transferred to the Rankine cycle. The results obtained from the calculations preformed were that a combined cycle efficiency of 52.914% has been achieved at optimum operating conditions. The combined cycle has been shown to operate above 50% efficiency in a wide variety of load–following conditions.

Abstract:
Model-based fault detection and diagnostic systems have become an important solution (Munoz & Sanz-Bobi, 1998:178) in the industry for preventive maintenance. This not only increases plant safety, but also reduces down time and financial losses. This paper investigates a model-based fault detection and diagnostic system by using neural networks. To mimic process models, a normal feed-forward neural network with time delays is implemented by using the MATLAB@ neural network toolbox. By using these neural network models, residuals are generated. These residuals are then classified by using other neural networks. The main process in question is the Brayton cycle thermal process used in the pebble bed modular reactor. Flownet simulation software is used to generate the data, where practical data is absent. Various training algorithms were implemented and tested during the investigation of modelling and classification concepts on two benchmark processes. The training algorithm that performed best was finally implemented in an integrated concept

Abstract:
The next generation nuclear power plants like the Pebble Bed Modular Reactor (PBMR) permit for the design of advanced health monitoring (fault diagnosis) systems to improve safety, system reliability and operational performance. Traditionally, fault diagnosis has been performed by applying limit value checking techniques. Although simple, the inability of these techniques to model parameter dependencies and detect incipient fault behaviour renders them unfavourable. More recent approaches to fault diagnosis can be attributed to the advances in computational intelligence. Data driven methods like artificial neural networks are more widely used when modelling complex nonlinear systems, using only historical plant data. These methods are however dependent on the quality and amount of data used for model development. The key to developing an advanced fault diagnosis system is to adopt an integrated approach for monitoring the different aspects of the total process. Within this context, this goal is realized by presenting a new integrated architecture for sensor fault diagnosis in addition to the enthalpy-entropy graph approach for process fault diagnosis. The integrated architecture for sensor fault diagnosis named SENSE, exploits the strengths of several existing techniques whilst reducing their individual shortcomings. A novel approach for process fault diagnosis is proposed based on the characteristics inherent in the design of the PBMR. Power control by means of an inventory control system and no bypass valve operation facilitates a reference model that remains invariant over the power range. Consequently, the devised reference fault signatures remain static during steady state and transient variations of the normal process. In the thesis, both single and multiple fault conditions are considered during steady state and transient variations of the normal process. It is demonstrated that by applying SENSE, the fused variable estimates are consistent and more accurate than the individual sensor readings. Test cases corresponding to 32 single and multiple fault conditions confirmed that it is possible to use the enthalpy-entropy graph approach for process fault diagnosis. In addition, the proposed fault diagnosis approach is validated through an application to real data from the prototype Pebble Bed Micro Model (PBMM) plant. This application demonstrated that the proposed approach is ideally suited for early detection of faults and greatly reduces the amount of plant data required for model development.

Abstract:
High-temperature Gas-cooled Reactor Pebble-bed Module (HTR-PM), which is designed by Tsinghua university of China, is under construction in Shidao Bay of China. It will be the world’s first pebble-bed type modular HTGR commercial demonstration plant. In HTR-PM project, steam-Rankine cycle has used in the power conversion system because it represents current state-of-the-art technology. Meanwhile, helium turbine for HTGR has been investigated for many years in Tsinghua University. Mock-up machine for HTR-10GT has been built. Helium turbine for 250MW HTGR, which is based on HTR-PM, has completed conceptual designed. However, supercritical carbon dioxide (S-CO2) Brayton cycle has shown to have great potentials for future HTGR technology in recent years because of its critical properties. Helium turbine cycle and S-CO2 Brayton cycle are both candidates for future HTGR. Therefore, comparative study is conducted in this paper. Comparison is focused on achievable efficiencies for each cycle mentioned above and on cycle layout with respect to simplicity and compactness, which primarily determines capital cost. Firstly, the physical model for helium turbine cycle with recuperator and intercooler is built and cycle performance is analyzed based on the parameters of HTR-PM. Then the model for S-CO2 Brayton cycle with recompression is also built and the cycle efficiency is analyzed with the same parameters of HTR-PM. Secondly, comparison between helium turbine cycle and S-CO2 Brayton cycle is made from the view of thermodynamics. Moreover, parameters optimization of both cycles based on HTR-PM is carried out. At last, advantage and drawback of both cycles are discussed from the engineering point. In conclusion, cycle simplicity and technology maturity of helium turbine cycle are better than S-CO2 Brayton cycle. But on the other side, smaller size equipment and less compression work of S-CO2 Brayton Cycle are more competitive than helium turbine cycle. Helium turbine with higher temperature and S-CO2 Brayton Cycle with higher pressure can achieve higher efficiency than steam Rankine cycle.

Abstract:
Abstract In the present study, a design point analysis of twin-spool turbofan engines is carried out, considering fuel injection of Aviation Turbine Fuel (ATF) in the initial stages of the compressor instead of combustor The two-phase compression brings about intercooling in the modified Brayton cycle, by injecting the atomized fuel directly in the initial stages of axial-flow compressor. The intercooling effect results in reduction of compressor work while reinforcing the enthalpy of combustion of fuel due to change of state of fuel from liquid to vapor state. This brings about an improvement in the thrust and thermal efficiency of the modified cycle. Effect of the intercooling is investigated for different performance parameters namely Fuel flow rate ṁf Total thrust Fs, Thermal efficiency ηth, Overall efficiency ηo and Modified cycle factor MCF over the varying compressor pressure ratio (CPR). Injecting the fuel in the 2nd stage of compression results in percentage increase of total thrust by 21.14%, MCF by 31.35%, ηo by 14.92% and decrease in Fuel flow rate ṁf by 7%. While injecting the fuel in the 5th stage of compression results in increased ηo by 17.54 %, MCF by 37.30%, total thrust by 5.68% and decrease in Fuel flow rate ṁf by 22% at a CPR = 30 and Turbine Inlet Temperature (TIT) = 1260K vis-à-vis conventional cycle. Injecting the fuel in latter stages of compressor brings about a decrease of total thrust as well as efficiency.

Abstract:
Abstract Nowadays, more significant effort is needed to improve power generation efficiency to respond to environmental concerns. Several innovative technological options are under development and, among them, the integration of different energy systems is one remarkable opportunity. In this work, a combination of three different thermodynamic cycles has been proposed and studied: an Inverted Brayton cycle (IBC) is used to exploit the exhaust gas enthalpy of a Brayton-Joule cycle and a Steam Power Plant is bottomed to the Inverted Brayton Cycle, in order to recover the high thermal power wasted in its cooling section. In other words, a quite conventional natural gas combined cycle power plant is repowered introducing the Inverted Brayton Cycle to exploit the gas thermal power between the gas turbine and the heat recovery steam generator. In this integration, each parameter has a strong influence on the overall performance of the system: pressure ratio of the gas cycle, sub-atmospheric pressure of the inverted one, turbines inlet and outlet temperatures and heat recovery grade in the bottom steam section have been investigated in order to optimize the working conditions and find a best operating point. A post combustion opportunity was also considered, exploring for the best position to place it along the gases path and to get the maximum additional power through the repowering intervention.

The modem combined cycle power plants achieved thermal efficiency of 50–55% by applying bottoming multistage Rankine steam cycle. At the same time, the Brayton cycle is an attractive option for a bottoming cycle engine. In the author’s US Patent No. 5,442,904 is described a combined cycle system with a simple cycle gas turbine, the bottoming air turbine Brayton cycle, and the reverse Brayton cycle. In this system, air turbine Brayton cycle produces mechanic power using exergy of gas turbine exhaust gases, while the reverse Brayton cycle refrigerates gas turbine inlet air. Using this system, supercharging of gas turbine compressor becomes possible. In the paper, thermodynamic optimization of the system is done, and the system techno-economic characteristics are evaluated.
