Thermodynamic Analysis of Combined Power and Cooling Cycle

Abstract

In this study, thermodynamic analysis of the combined power and cooling cycle, which simultaneously provide power and cooling, was performed. In the cycle, which is a combination of absorption cooling cycle and Rankine power cycle, ammonia-water mixture with variable temperature feature during the boiling and condensation process was used as the working fluid. The effects of turbine inlet pressure and boiler temperature on net work and system efficiency were examined for certain cooling loads. And the pressure ranges in which the system could produce net work were determined. According to the results obtained, the ratio of net work to cooling load at 120 110 and 100 oC boiler temperatures are 4.696, 4.088 and 2.978, respectively.

Bileşik Güç ve Soğutma Çevriminin Termodinamik Analizi

Abstract

Bu çalışmada aynı anda güç ve soğutma elde edilebilen bileşik güç ve soğutma çevriminin termodinamik analizi yapılmıştır. Absorbsiyonlu soğutma çevrimi ile Rankine güç çevriminin birleşimi olan çevrimde çalışma akışkanı olarak kaynama ve yoğuşma sürecinde değişken sıcaklık özelliğine sahip amonyak –su karışımı kullanılmıştır. Türbin giriş basıncı ve boyler sıcaklığının net iş ve sistem verimi üzerindeki etkileri belirli soğutma yükleri için incelenmiş ve sistemin net iş üretebildiği basınç aralıkları belirlenmiştir. Net işin soğutma yüküne oranları 120, 110 ve 100 oC boyler sıcaklıklarında sırasıyla 4.696, 4.088 ve 2.978 olarak bulunmuştur.
