In this course, the student gets familiar with the power cycle components/processes and their T - s diagrams
Ideal vs real operation and major performance trends
Skills covered in this course
Description
This course analyses the core power cycle components and processes: compression, combustion and expansion, using air as the working fluid.
What this course covers:
- Compression and expansion for ideal and real operation
- Pressure to temperature relationships and process efficiencies
- Complete combustion at constant pressure with and without heat loss
- Combustion of six fuels: carbon, hydrogen, sulfur, coal, oil and gas
- Enthalpy versus temperature plots, flame temperature and product composition
Tables and plots let you determine the major combustion performance laws and trends.
