1.4 Conversion Efficiency The efficiency of electric power production by either fossil or fission fuels is governed by the thermodynamics of the heat cycle. The ideal or Carnot efficiency is determined by the temperature of the heat source and by the temperature of the surrounding air or water which acts as a heat sink. The ideal efficiency is given by T E .=l1 TTi ; 100 0i) t sourcei wherethetemperaturesaremeasuredonanabsolutescale. Inallmech- anical and thermodynamic processes, the actual efficiency is less than the ideal. With the present technology of the steam-electric cycle, the actual efficiency is about 60% of the ideal. The basic components of steam-electric generating systems by either fossil or nuclear fuel are shown in Figures 1-1 through 1-4. The components to the right of Section A-A in Figure 1-1 are common to all steam-electric systems and these will be described first. Steam, at high temperature and pressure, enters a turbine where energy in the form of shaft-work is removed. The turbine shaft is coupled to a generator which produces electricity, and the spent steam at low temperature and pressure, enters a condenser. In the condenser, the steam is converted to the liquid phase (water) by the continual removal of heat by means of a separate condenser water circulating system. When waste heat carried by condenser cooling water is discharged into an adjacent water body, transfer to the atmosphere occurs over relatively large areas by evaporation, radiation, convection, and conduc- tion. When cooling towers are used, heat is rejected directly to the 11

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
