Thermodynamic performance of ammonia in liquefied natural gas precooling cycle

Liquefied Natural Gas Developments Specialreport

A multi-tube, spirally-wound, cryogenic heat exchanger, the main heat exchanger (MHE) is the principal piece of heat-transfer equipment in mixed-refrigerant liquefaction cycles for producing liquefied natural gas (LNG). An MHE unit operation model called the spirally-wound tube-bundle module was developed as an integral component of the dynamic simulation capabilities for a process modeling pac...

Liquefied Natural Gas for Trucks and Buses

Liquefied natural gas (LNG) is being developed as a heavy vehicle fuel. The reason for developing LNG is to reduce our dependency on imported oil by eliminating technical and costs barriers associated with its usage. The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) has a program, currently in its third year, to develop and advance costeffective technologies for operating and refueling natural gas–fueled hea...

Analysis and Simulation of the Effect of Turbine Inlet Temperature on Thermodynamic Performance of the Water – Ammonia Combined Cycle

Due to the importance of power generation cycles including combined cycle, many studies have been done in recent years and many researchers have been tried to optimize these cycles by using of existing methods. In this study, the Water-Ammonia cycle is investigated in the combined-cycle of the Water-Ammonia, working dual Water-Ammonia mixture is used as the works fluid. This cycle can be used f...

Dividing-Wall Column for Fractionation of Natural Gas Liquids in Floating Liquefied Natural Gas Plants

The development of floating liquefied natural gas (FLNG) plants has resulted in a focus on reducing the weight and size of the topside processing facilities for these units. The conventional fractionation of natural gas liquids (NGL) in LNG plants implies a direct sequence of three or more conventional distillation columns requiring different levels of refrigeration. The results of a feasibilit...
