Nowadays, thermodynamic cycles are actively studied, in which pure oxygen and fuel are fed into a combustion chamber, and a temperature of a working fluid is regulated by the supply of carbon dioxide and/or water vapor. These cycles are called “oxygen-fuel”. They allow easy to separate CO2, resulting from a fuel combustion, from the working fluid and remove it from the cycle in its pure form. In addition, it has already been shown that an efficiency of electric power generation of such cycles is approaching the best known technologies. However, the efficiency of cogeneration of electricity and heat is more important for many energy systems, especially for Russian, in comparison with the efficiency of electricity generation. The main goal of the study was to analyze the thermal efficiency for cogeneration of electricity and heat of one of the options for the implementation of oxygen-fuel cycles - compressorless combined cycle gas turbine (CCGT) units. A mathematical model of the compressorless CCGT units was developed, which allows to study the thermal performance in a wide range of operating modes. It is conventionally accepted that the system requires a maximum power for power supply of 300 MW, and a maximum power for heat supply of 600 MW. It is assumed that 300 MW of electricity is constantly supplied to the network. In addition, the heat load is provided according to the standard schedule depending on the ambient temperature, and at the same time an averaged data on the temperature of atmospheric air for central Russia over a tenyear period is accepted. The comparison is made with a steam turbine CHP plant and a CCGTCHP plant. The results of the comparison showed a significant advantage of the compressorless CCGT unit.
The article is dedicated to a design of a pilot model of a 60 MW installation, operating according to a new promising compressorless combined cycle. In the course of the study, the weight-size parameters and functional indicators of the main parts of the energy complex were preliminarily determined. The auxiliary components of a compressorless combined cycle unit were selected, such as pumps, heat exchangers, compressors, pipelines and etc. Within a draft elaboration, preliminary weight, size and functional parameters of a turbine unit were defined, solutions were found for two groups of pumping equipment, and a plant prototype was designed. Additionally, the weight and size parameters of the plate heat exchangers were determined and a special design of shell-and-tube heat exchangers was designed to return the heat of combustion products. The results, obtained during the study, make it possible to simulate the behavior (develop dynamic models) of a compressorless combined cycle unit in all operating modes (from start-up to shutdown) under various conditions, as well as to carry out a feasibility study for the creation of such installations.
An article is devoted to the study of the strength properties of interlayer adhesion and determination of Young's modulus by the ball instrumental indentation method for samples, made of various plastics using additive technology under normal conditions. This production method is chosen as the most appropriate for creating lightly stressed parts of complex geometry (up to 30 MPa) in the shortest possible time. One of the possible options for such products is full-size centrifugal wheels layouts of low power gas turbine units (up to 250 kW) for testing them in model conditions. It will ensure the work of the material in the elastic zone. The samples are considered, obtained by FDM method from various polymers such as: acrylonitrile butadiene styrene thermoplastic resin (ABS+), acrylonitrile butadiene styrene thermoplastic resin with addition of carbon fibers (ABS Carbon), nylon with addition of carbon fibers (Nylon Super Carbon), polyethylene terephthalate glycol (PETG) and a compound based on polylactide (PLA HP). Plastics, made by this method, have anisotropic properties. Therefore, in this work, the strength characteristics of the test samples interlayer adhesion under tension are determined.
