    Abstract____________________________________________________________________________In this report the assignment for the Thermodynamics and Combustion module for the RMD

    course batch 2012 is been presented. The module leader Ananthesha has given the overview of

    fundamental aspects of Thermodynamics and its role in evolution of engineering designs. Focus

    on explaining the fundamentals of subject based on real life applications was the key of

    discussions in the class room. The assignment is divided into three parts,

    Part A) It is in the form of essay where the topic subject of mathematical modeling of the

    thermal power plant is to be discussed. Mathematical modeling of the Takoradi Thermal power

    plant was published in the paper Thermodynamic Analysis of the gas and steam turbines at

    Takoradi Thermal power station which was provided as a material to refer. In the paper basic

    understanding of the power plant, ways of improving and modeling of the power plant was

    discussed through energy balance equations. Efforts are made to understand the work and

    comment on the work in required aspects of subject.

    Part B) It consisted of understanding the energy requirements for the Karnataka state by the

    year 2020, its resources available for providing energy. A proposal is made of 73MW solar

    power plant which can be integrated with the coal power system. Efforts are made to collect

    lots of data supporting the energy requirement from KREDL, INDIAN commission etc.. and

    also for other sources to justify the scenario of energy resources and a solution of Solar powerplant integrated with coal as alternative resource is provided.

    Part C) It consists of the design of thermodynamic combustion chamber for the given specific

    conditions. This was the most challenging part of the assignment which requires a thorough

    knowledge of the entire process involved in aircraft engines and more specific to the

    combustion process. Efforts are made to understand the combustion process, combustor

    requirement and detail processes, geometry specification governing equations, concept of

    primary, secondary and tertiary flow requirements and a lot of other parameters and their affecton combustion and combustor design.

    I would like to thanks Sir Ananthesha for his knowledge sharing sessions and interactive

    discussions on such advanced topic. At the end of the assignment I have put forward my views

    regarding the beneficial aspects of this assignment.

    PART-A

    Mathematical model of thermodynamics power plantIntroduction- Importance of Electric Energy

    Electricity has become bare essential requirement for mankind, along with food, shelter and

    clothing. The quest to fulfill the need with an cost effective means has driven many change in the

    mankind and has led to the exploitation of all kind of resources that nature Earth has provided us.

    Electricity is the centre for any advancement in technology right from home, home appliances,

    mobiles, irrigation, transportations to development in high end computers that are back bone of

    growth in this advanced era of industries and revolutions. For every resource there is a limit and

    with ever growing population of the planet the need for reliable source of electricity with very

    effective Cost of energy is sought for. Efforts are made in to use all kind of energy Oil, Coal, water,

    air and solar etc so as to meet the ever growing demand for electricity. The role of power plant

    steam, gas, oil cannot be ignored in supplying power till date, but the danger of extinction of these

    resources is forcing mankind to bring innovate and lean approach to continue the supply of reliable

    electricity. In regards to this a concept of combined power plant is discussed wherein emphasis is

    laid that if designed properly the dependence on diminishing Oil resources can be avoided with the

    use of renewable natural gas. A mathematical model for the same has been developed by

    researchers in Ghana, which will be discussed in next sections and described in journal published at

    European Journal of Technology and Advanced Engineering Research [1].

    Parameters affecting the performance of the power plant

    Irreversible Brayton cycle and Rankine cycle using air and water/steam respectively, are analysed

    for mass balance and energy balance. The plants are combined by using the exhaust from the gas

    turbine to raise steam in the HRSG without additional fuel input.

    The table

    No Parameter Description Additional Information

    1 Compressor

    Pressure

    ratio

    It is the ratio of the compressor pressure

    at exit to inlet. It is the main parameter

    affecting the efficiency of the cycle.

    2 Compressor

    Isentropic

    efficiency

    This efficiency is related to the losses in

    the compressor due to friction, heat etc..

    It dictates the efficiency of work that can

    be done to increase the pressure.

    Thermodynamics and Combustion 9

    3 Gas turbine

    Isentropic

    efficiency

    It is the efficiency at which the turbine

    works and is given by,

    4 Turbine

    Inlet

    temperature

    It is the temperature at which the hot

    gases from the combustion are exposed to

    the turbine for extracting work. The

    higher it is the more benefit.

    This is a very critical parameter

    and but due to lack of material

    availability, this temperature is

    restricted to around 1800k.

    5 Pinch

    difference

    temperature

    It the difference in the temperature

    involving the energy exchanges. This

    governs the efficiency of the co plant.

    The value for pinch difference should be

    as less as possible.

    In this process the heat from hot

    gas exhaust is transferred to water

    to convert to steam. The higher it is

    the better efficiency

    6 Steam

    turbine inlet

    temperature

    This temperature is very critical for the

    performance of the steam turbine, the

    higher it is the better.

    In this process of combine plant, it

    is must to ensure that the turbine

    exhaust air is at higher temperature.

    7 Steam

    turbine

    isentropic

    efficiency

    In the turbine the steam expands and

    condenses into water at exit. The more

    expansion of steam, the higher the

    efficiency.

    8 Flow rates The mass of air flowing in the Brayton

    cycle determines the output from gas

    turbine.

    The mass of steam flowing in the

    Rankine cycle determines the

    power output from steam plant.

    9 Pump

    isentropic

    efficiency

    The fluid from the condenser is pumped

    to the boiler through pump. The

    isentropic efficiency of the pump defines

    the mass that can be circulated in the

    boiler.

    Boiler

    condenser

    10 Combustion

    efficiency

    The heat released is critical for the power

    output from the turbine as it determines

    the turbine inlet temperature.

    It depends on, air-fuel ratio,

    condition in the combustion

    chamber etc..

    Authors contribution to the modification to the power plant

    The author has contributed by following

    Understanding the current state of power plant

    Getting the process input required

    Energy calculation at each stage, with relevant approximations.

    Developed the Model solution flow chart which is used to get the decision points and

    calculations done using MATHCAD.

    Assumption of critical parameters to make the mathematical model efficient within certain

    parameter variation.

    Developing mathematical model to predict output taking into account global performance

    factors.

    Identifying the areas of improvement

    Optimizing the power output by using the mathematical model

    Comparison of modeled analysis to actual performance

    Justification to modification to the use of natural gas in place of Light crude oil.

    Comments on Authors conclusion

    The author has described well the functioning of the power plant. The main factors that can be

    commented are

    1) Assumption of steady flow: Flow losses are not taken into account.

    2) Combustion at ideal state: The ideal gas behavior with steady flow condition at higher

    temperature must be justified, which is not done by the author.

    3) Pressured air from compressor to be used for cooling: I think this is the waste of energy over

    which we make the compressor to work. This requires higher output from the turbine

    affecting the overall efficiency.

    4) Variation in inlet temperature is not accounted: The results are for fixed ambient condition

    and may drastically change based on different operating conditions.

    5) Assumption of ideal behavior of fluid: The real conditions must be accounted to have a

    better model of the estimation of power output from gas turbine and steam turbine.

    6) Increase in mass flow rate to increase the power output of the Gas turbine: There must be a

    balance of how much to increase and at what cost. As cost is the main driving factor for this

    design therefore accurate increase in mass must be known.

    7) Use of natural gas (green) compared to Light crude oil (black), due to its higher calorific

    value and low cost is justified by the trend in cost difference shown in Figure 1.

    Modifications required to implement the model to power plant

    The power plant described can be modified to increase the efficiency and for better implementation

    in the following ways

    Better modeling of the ambient conditions by having a wet mast data collection of the

    condition of the place for more than 2 years. This is currently practiced to surveys areas of

    application of wind turbine and regulatory bodies are governing control and design of

    measurement of field data.

    The author mentions that the turbine blades are exposed to hot air after appropriate cooling

    for material requirement. By properly controlling the combustion this can be avoided, as this

    step seems to be waste of energy unlike it is mandatory in aircraft gas turbines. This step

    will also improve the efficiency of the Heat recovery Steam generator (HRGS) by reducing

    the pinch temperature difference.

    Another modification which can be interesting is to use constant volume heat addition

    process as known that the slope of T-S curve for constant volume heat addition is more that

    the constant pressure heat addition. Although it requires the implementation of constant

    volume heat addition process to open cycles.

    Other options is to have HP turbine and LP turbine and reheat system, but this may increase

    the complexity of the entire process

    Conclusion

    Overall a combined cycle power plant where in the Brayton and Rankine cycles has been

    understood and cost efficient ways are given a thought process. But I feel the use of Concentrated

    Solar power plants to heat the water to steam is a best alternative way to reduce cost and

    dependence on the resources which will extinct one day unlike solar energy [3]. This technology is

    being evolved, developed and currently now in implementation phase in US. Bright Energy is one

    of the leading promoters of CSP in the World and is loaded with lot of renewal power plant projectusing the Concentrated Solar Thermal Power plants.

    PART-BPower plant proposal for Karnataka State

    Present power demand and sources of power generation in Karnataka state

    Karnataka has been a pioneer in the power sector having established the very first hydel generating

    station at Shivasamudram in 1902. Karnataka has been in the forefront of adopting innovative

    approaches to the problems of the power sector. Several important steps in restructuring the power

    sector have been taken by Karnataka over the years, including the separation of Generation of

    power from Transmission and Distribution, by setting up the Karnataka Power Corporation in 1970.

    The State is now again on the threshold of vital and far reaching reforms [4].

    The following figures summarize the current resources of energy and their capacity in MWs [5]

    Figure 2 Energy resources in KarnatakaNon renewable

    The installed capacity as on 1st January 2000 both with KEB and KPTCL is 4216 MW. Beside this

    Karnataka has been allocated a share of 761 MW from the central generating stations owned by

    NTPC, NLC, MAPP and Kaiga in the Southern Region. In addition, the State has a captive

    generating capacity of about 1600 MW mostly with large and medium size industrial consumers.

    The unrestricted peak demand of Karnataka is 4482 MW and average daily energy requirement of

    78 MU per day. With the installed capacity and share from the central generating stations,

    Karnataka has met a peak demand of 4060 MW, and highest daily consumption of 84.37 MU

    during January 2000. In addition, Karnataka is presently importing 7.226 MU; of which MSEB

    supplies 2.998 MU and 2.784 MU is being received from the Eastern region by utilising the HVDC

    link between Jeypore in Orissa and Gajuwaka in Andhra Pradesh. M/s Jindal Tracteble is supplying

    1.444 MU. Despite these arrangements which have been operationalized, there is a shortage of 6.30

    MU (average daily shortage).

    With the growth in industries, demand for power will increase and renewable energy must be used.

    The following figure gives the estimation of the available energy and energy used so far.

    Figure 3 Karnataka Renewable Energy

    Under the Industrial Policy 2009 the state has identified areas covering Bidar, Belgaum, Bagalkot,

    Shimoga and Mandya Districts for Sugar and co-gen, power development. Similarly areas covering

    Raichur, Bellary, and Bijapur & Chitradurga Districts for Power Generation sector specific

    industrial zone development. It is proposed under this policy that the Government will keep 10%

    portion of these lands at the disposal of Karnataka Renewable Energy Development Limited to

    develop them for Renewable Energy projects and allied Renewable Energy industries. Further 10%

    of lands will be set apart for Renewable Energy project in all future SEZs to be identified under

    Industrial Policy 2009 and also in the already approved SEZs at Shimoga, Hassan, Bangalore,

    Udupi, Mysore and Bellary. 10% of all SEZ lands will be kept at the disposal of Karnataka

    Renewable Energy Development Limited to develop Renewable Energy projects.[4]

    Proposal for Solar Thermal power plant

    The solar thermal energy systems generate power the same way as traditional power plants by

    creating high temperature steam to turn a turbine. However, instead of using fossil fuels or nuclear

    power to create the steam, suns energy is used. The steam can then be integrated with conventional

    power plant components for electricity generation or for use in industrial process applications. By

    the use of optimized software thousand of tracking mirrors, known as heliostats, can be controlled

    to concentrate the sunlight onto a boiler filled with water that sits at the top a tower. When the

    sunlight hits the boiler, the water inside is heated and creates high temperature steam. Once

    produced, the steam is used either in a conventional turbine to produce electricity.

    Figure 4 Solar -Thermal power plant and representative thermodynamics cycle

    The mirrors in a tower system receive sunlight at a more advantageous angle because they track the

    sun on two axes (i.e., in three dimensions) rather than on only one axis. The tracking advantage is

    particularly important when the sun is relatively low in the sky, such as in winter, or even in the

    early and late daylight hours at other times of the year. This means that a larger proportion of

    sunlight is reflected and ultimately utilized for generating electricity on a yearly basis. The solar

    thermal system design includes:

    Optimization of solar field design to match utility peak generation demand requirements

    Methods to ensure more reliable and consistent power output

    Maximizing the production capability through thermal energy storage and hybridization

    with fossil fuels

    Technical specification of the plant

    I would like to propose the similar solution as done in Mojave Desert to Southern California Edison

    (SCE). Seven solar power towers which has the capacity of 1,300 MW, producing 3.7 billion

    kilowatt-hours per year. The project would cost $2.2 billion. One of the partners from the Ivanpah

    project is Siemens [9]. The Ivanpah Solar Power Facility, could be operating by 2013[6][7][8]. The

    total cost of the Ivanpah project will be $2.2 billion. One of the partners from the Ivanpah project is

    Siemens [9]. In Karnataka, the special energy zones dedicated for solar energy can be seen in North

    Karnataka like Gulbarga district, Bidar, Raichur which are hot zones and are usually affected from

    lack of electricity.

    BrightSource [8], which is apt for the conditions in North Karnataka which can serve upto 1.3GW

    of power per annum. It doesnt have many mechanical parts as traditional combine power plant and

    uses solar energy which is freely available hence the most cost efficient.

    4 Comments on Learning Outcome

    The Thermodynamics and Combustion module, classes were conducted by Ananthesha, and the

    subject being so vast in fundamental application was helpful for me to understand. Thank to Sir that

    he explained many difficult topics covering from basics to advanced topics like combustion.

    The module helped me to enhance my knowledge on

    Laws of Thermodynamics and their importance in day to day applications

    Different power plants used with their thermodynamics process cycles

    Different thermodynamics design process for different power plants

    Introduction to the affect of combustion and its calculations

    Thermodynamic processes and cycles involved in the aircraft turbo machinery, their governing

    factors and limitations

    Different types of combustion process, combustors used and their design process and criteria.

    The learning outcomes were met which were addressed directly/ indirectly in our assignments. The

    ICA assignments were very challenging and addressing towards strengthening the knowledge of

    subject.

    I think for me the subject is so vast and within the stipulated time of three-four weeks, it is not

    sufficient to understand the subject in depth. But the basic building blocks of thermodynamics, feel

    for combustion and combustor design are developed. And I am sure that I can build upon thesecompetencies learned through this module.
