Abstract:
Supercritical CO2 Brayton cycle is a good choice of thermal-to-electric energy conversion system, which owns a high cycle efficiency and a compact cycle configuration. It can be used to many power-generation applications, such as nuclear power, concentrated solar thermal, fossil fuel boilers, shipboard propulsion system. Transient cycle analysis for S-CO2 Brayton cycle is quite important in the area of transient analysis, control strategy study and accident analysis. In this paper, a transient analysis code SCTRAN/CO2 is developed for S-CO2 Brayton Loop based on a homogenous model. Heat conduction model, point neutron power model(which is developed for nuclear power application), turbomachinery model for gas turbine, compressor and shaft model, PCHE recuperator model are all included in this transient analysis code. The verifications and validations were performed for models like heat transfer model, friction model, compressor model. The verification of integrated system transient was also conducted through making comparison with experiment data of SCO2EP of KAIST and IST of Knolls Atomic Power Laboratory. The comparison results show that SCTRAN/CO2 owns the ability to simulate transient process for S-CO2 Brayton cycle. SCTRAN/CO2 will become an important tool for S-CO2 based Bryton cycle development. © 2016 Association for Computing Machinery Inc. All Rights Reserved.
