1.1 PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS OF A RANKINE-GOSWAMI COMBINED CYCLE Improving the efficiency of thermodynamic cycles plays a fundamental role for the development of solar power plants. These plants work normally with Rankine cycles which present some disadvantages due to the thermodynamic behavior of steam at low pressures. These disadvantages can be reduced by introducing alternatives such as combined cycles which combine the best features of each cycle. In the present study a combined Rankine-Goswami cycle is proposed and a thermodynamic analysis is conducted. The Goswami cycle, used as a bottoming cycle, uses ammonia-water mixture as the working fluid and produces power and refrigeration while power is the primary goal. Figure 5 shows a schematic of the Rankine-Goswami cycle. Fig.5 The detailed explanation about the parameters that were used for simulation is given in the paper. Different cases were also considered for parametric studies which are shown below. The thermodynamic properties of water and steam were implemented in Python 2.6 by using the international-standard IAPWS-IF97 steam tables. For the Goswami cycle, the properties of ammonia water were obtained from a Gibbs free energy formulation given by Xu and Goswami. In this study the amount of the electric work obtained from the topping cycle was held constant at 50 MWe while for the bottoming cycle the turbine work was considered as an output parameter. Figure 6 shows the effect of the high pressure side on the rectifier temperature and absorber concentration, In this case, the ammonia concentration range was selected such as the absorber was kept at least under atmospheric pressure. 22 | P a g e

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
