The current work investigates the exergy analysis of a new system to generate power, heat, and refrigeration. In the proposed system, the heat loss of a gas turbine (GT) is first recovered by a Heat Recovery Steam Generator (HRSD), then by an Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) to generate warm water and additional power, respectively. In the ORC, reheating is used to increase the output power, the req...

The purpose of this paper is multi-objective optimization of refrigeration cycle by optimization of all components of the cycle contains heat exchangers, air condenser, evaporator and super-heater. Studied refrigeration cycle is compression refrigeration cycle of unit 132 Third refineries in south pars that provide chilled water for cooling refinery equipment's. Cycle will be performed by t...

In this paper, exergy and exergoeconomic analysis is performed on the recently proposed process forthe coproduction of liquefied natural gas (LNG) and natural gas liquids (NGL) based on the mixedfluid cascade (MFC) refrigeration systems, as one of the most important and popular natural gasliquefaction processes. To carry out this analysis, at first, the proposed process is sim...

We show in this paper that the common method of specifying ∆Tmin in design of heat exchanger systems may lead to wrong decisions and should be used with care. Although specifying ∆Tmin is reasonable for heat exchanger networks synthesis with given stream data, it should not generally be used for obtaining optimal design data and especially not stream data (temperatures). An alternative simple T...

A dynamic model of a single-effect absorption refrigeration cycle has been developed. Modeling of the cycle performance requires thermodynamic properties which are obtained from equations of state for refrigerant-absorbent mixtures. The transient response of the absorption refrigeration cycle is investigated using mass, momentum and energy balances for the different parts of the system. Some de...

This study presents a thermodynamic analysis of new combined power/refrigeration cycle. The cycle is comprised two innovative cycles: Kalina (KNC) and ejector refrigeration (ERC) for power production, respectively. Recovery heat process involved in the design to rise energetic exergetic efficiencies: emitted by KNC absorbed ERC order generate cooling. Effects variation operational conditions wh...

This study presents a theoretical analysis of a new combined cooling, heating, and power cycle by the novel integration of an organic Rankine cycle (ORC), an ejector refrigeration cycle (ERC), and a heat pump cycle (HPC) for producing cooling output, heating output, and power output simultaneously. Three different working fluids—namely R113, isobutane, and R141b—have been used in power, ref...
