Heater controller 1 and 2 were operating at ~9 mA and 8 mA, respectively. As these are 4-10 mA controllers , we estimate the total power to be ~78. kW. The measured data shown above provide the temperature and pressure at the inlet and outlet of every component in the loop. With this information, it is possible to estimate the enthalpy change and power of that component, given the measured flow rate. The initial results of this analysis are shown in Figure 5-41 and Figure 5-42. The power transferred to the fluid in the heater and the gas chiller is shown in Figure 5-41. Note that the values are nearly identical indicating that initially the system was near steady- state. During the high speed transient the heaters and gas chiller initially began to transfer approximately 300 kW but quickly settled down to approximately 80 kW which is near the electrical heater power. If true steady state conditions were achieved the gas chiller should be rejecting the heater power plus the motor power (~ 10 kW), but this is not observed in this simple analysis. This may simply be, because the mass flow rate was not adjusted to account for leakage flows. Also for the magnitude of the heat being transferred (~80 kW), one could easily envision uncertainties due to transient heat transfer effects on the order of a few kWs which could easily obscure these secondary effects. The estimated power in the turbine (magenta) and the compressor (yellow) are shown in Figure 5-42. Notice that the turbine power nearly equals the compressor power but exceeds the compressor power by a few kW near the end of the transient. This indicates that the turbine was producing more power than the compressor was consuming, which means we were close to break-even conditions. Also note that the motor power (brown) is very close to the windage power (purple), which further indicates near break-even conditions. As mentioned, this analysis is not complete and we have not taken into account the leakage flow rates, nor have we accounted for the heat losses to plumbing due to transient heating and cooling effects. Two other similar transients at lower temperatures were performed (not shown), and they all Heater Control 1 MC FlowValve Water Control Heater Control 2 RPM1 88 Current (Amp) RPM

Infinity Supercritical CO2 10 Liter Extractor Design and Worldwide Rights: The Infinity Supercritical 10L CO2 extractor is for botanical oil extraction, which is rich in terpenes and can produce shelf ready full spectrum oil. With over 5 years of development, this industry leader mature extractor machine has been sold since 2015 and is part of many profitable businesses. The process can also be used for electrowinning, e-waste recycling, and lithium battery recycling, gold mining electronic wastes, precious metals. CO2 can also be used in a reverse fuel cell with nafion to make a gas-to-liquids fuel, such as methanol, ethanol and butanol or ethylene. Supercritical CO2 has also been used for treating nafion to make it more effective catalyst. This NFT is for the purchase of worldwide rights which includes the design. More Info
