Isothermal turbines − New challenges. Numerical and experimental investigations into isothermal expansion in turbine power plants
Abstrakt
The efficiency of power plants with steam or gas turbines depends on the efficiencies of a thermodynamic cycle and devices implementing this cycle. In the case of high power outputs, we cannot expect a significant increase in the efficiency of individual devices. Therefore, what remains is to increase the efficiency of the implemented thermodynamic cycle - the complex Rankine cycle in the case of steam turbines or the extended Brayton cycle in gas turbine units. The efficiencies of these cycles depend on the hot reservoir temperatures, limited by the materials used. The solution seems to be the thermodynamic cycles with the highest efficiency within given temperature limits, the „generalized Carnot cycles”. About gas turbines, such a cycle is the Ericsson cycle. The most difficult element of this cycle is carrying out high-temperature expansion. So far, there is no literature data on a technical device implementing this process. In this article, we present a method for designing turbine nozzles for isothermal expansion and the results of experimental tests of the first isothermal turbine. In the case of gas microturbines with a regenerator, isothermal expansion can increase efficiency from 24%-28% up to 36%. An increase in efficiency of several to a dozen percentage points is expected for organic rankine cycle (ORC) turbines. Due to such significant increases in energy generation efficiency, an isothermal turbine may become a future solution for energy systems.
