"Advanced Power Generation Systems" examines the full range of
advanced multiple output thermodynamic cycles that can enable more
sustainable and efficient power production from traditional
methods, as well as driving the significant gains available from
renewable sources. These advanced cycles can harness the
by-products of one power generation effort, such as electricity
production, to simultaneously create additional energy outputs,
such as heat or refrigeration. Gas turbine-based, and industrial
waste heat recovery-based combined, cogeneration, and trigeneration
cycles are considered in depth, along with Syngas combustion
engines, hybrid SOFC/gas turbine engines, and other
thermodynamically efficient and environmentally conscious
generation technologies. The uses of solar power, biomass,
hydrogen, and fuel cells in advanced power generation are
considered, within both hybrid and dedicated systems.
The detailed energy and exergy analysis of each type of system
provided by globally recognized author Dr. Ibrahim Dincer will
inform effective and efficient design choices, while emphasizing
the pivotal role of new methodologies and models for performance
assessment of existing systems. This unique resource gathers
information from thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, heat transfer,
and energy system design to provide a single-source guide to
solving practical power engineering problems.
The only complete source of info on the whole array of multiple
output thermodynamic cycles, covering all the design options for
environmentally-conscious combined production of electric power,
heat, and refrigerationOffers crucial instruction on realizing more
efficiency in traditional power generation systems, and on
implementing renewable technologies, including solar, hydrogen,
fuel cells, and biomass Each cycle description clarified through
schematic diagrams, and linked to sustainable development scenarios
through detailed energy, exergy, and efficiency analysesCase
studies and examples demonstrate how novel systems and performance
assessment methods function in practice
