Description
- The present invention belongs to the flied of energy and power technology.
- Cold demand, heat demand and power demand are common in human life and production. It is an important way to obtain and provide power by the conversion of thermal energy into mechanical energy. In general, the temperature of heat source reduces and varies with the release of heat. When fossil fuels are used as the primary energy, the heat source has the dual characteristics of both high temperature and variable temperature. Therefore, only one single thermodynamic cycle cannot achieve an ideal efficiency for refrigeration, heating or power generation.
- Take the vapor power device with external combustion for example, its heat source has the dual characteristics of high temperature and variable temperature. For those vapor power devices based on the Rankine cycle, the material's temperature resistance and pressure resistance abilities and safety concerns limit the parameters of the cycle's working medium. Therefore, there is a big temperature difference between the working medium and the heat source, which leads to big irreversible loss and low efficiency.
- Humans need new basic theory of thermal science to use fuel or other high temperature thermal energy simply, actively, efficiently for achieving refrigeration, heating or power. In the basic theory system of thermal science, thermodynamic cycles are the theoretical basis of thermal energy utilization devices, and the core of energy utilization systems. The establishment, development and application of thermodynamic cycles will play an important role in the rapid development of energy utilization and will promote actively for social progress and productivity development.
- Based on the principles of simple, active and efficient utilization of temperature difference, aiming at the power generation application of high temperature heat sources or variable temperature heat sources, and striving to provide theoretical support for the simplification and high efficiency of thermo-power systems, the present invention proposes a single-working-medium vapor combined cycle.
