The study investigates the comprehensive effects of superheat and internal heat exchanger (IHX) on the thermo-economic performance of organic Rankine cycle (ORC). Exergy efficiency, net power output, and electricity production cost (EPC) are compared based on the working fluid properties and heat sources. The results indicate that under a lower heat source temperature and load, exergy efficiency of...
Battery equivalent circuit models (ECMs) are widely employed in online battery management applications. The model parameters are known to vary according to the operating conditions, such as the battery state of charge (SOC). Therefore, online recursive ECM parameter estimation is one means that may help to improve the modelling accuracy. Because a battery system consists of both fast and slow dynamics,...
The cost of heat exchangers account for a large proportion of total investment in organic Rankine cycle (ORC). In this paper, plate heat exchanger (P), shell-and-tube heat exchanger (S) and finned-tube heat exchanger (F) are used as evaporator and condenser of four subcritical ORC configurations: ORC-PP, ORC-SS, ORC-FP and ORC-FS. The thermo-economic models are built and a thermo-economic evaluation...
Co-incineration of sludge in the existing coal-fired utility boilers is a promising sludge disposal approach, but study on the combustion characteristics and the economic impacts of co-firing sludge in full-scale utility boilers is in absence. In this study, a series of full-scale field experiments and numerical experiments were conducted to study the coal-sludge co-combustion characteristic in a...
This paper focuses on modeling and reducing NOX emissions for a coal-fired boilers with advanced machine learning approaches. The novel ELM (extreme learning machine) model was introduced to model the correlation between operational parameters and NOX emissions of the boiler. Approximately ten days of real data from the SIS (supervisory information system) of a 700 MW coal-fired power plant were acquired...
