Challenge: A manufacturer of heat exchangers was confronted with a problem. The exchanger had to be delivered without leaks that would create production problems for the customer. ...
The Client The client is an international integrated energy company with operations in 33 countries and are operating and developing their SAGD Assets in the Athabasca oil sands region. As in all SAGD operations the bitumen is brought to the surface mixed with particulate and water. The exchangers that do the initial cooling of this mixture are regularly fouled by the bitumen and particulate. ...
Abstract Pressure retarded osmosis (PRO) can be implemented on a number of water types, using different technologies and achieving various power outcomes. ...
Energy–Utilisation Diagram (EUD) has been used to identify exergy loss in general process units, whereas Power Availability Diagram (PAD) provides the difference between exergy changes of two pressure exchangers. Two modifications of the original PAD are proposed for better exergy loss visualisation. ...
The ecological function is optimised for an irreversible-closed Intercooled-Recuperated (ICR) gas turbine cycle using the theory of Finite-Time Thermodynamics by searching the optimum intercooling pressure ratio and heat conductance distributions among the four heat exchangers for fixed total heat exchanger inventory and the results are compared ...
The relationship between flashing pressure, turbine inlet pressure of the binary cycle and total heat transfer area of the heat exchanger are determined for maximum power output of the combined power plant. According to the results, the optimal flashing pressure of the flash cycle and the optimal inlet pressure ...
