Within the DYNCAP project, the Modelica library ClaRaCCS is being developed. This library will provide a framework to model both steam power plants and carbon capture units in an integrated manner. The current status of the library is presented. The structure of the library and the general model design is outlined. Its user-friendly handling as well as its high flexibility in the modelling of individual complex scenarios are demonstrated by the concrete modelling of a furnace. The scenario of a closed steam cycle coupled to a carbon capture cycle based on an amine gas treatment is described and simulation results are briefly discussed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
