A Double Pinch Criterion for Optimization of Regenerative Rankine Cycles: Powerplant Operation and Simulation/Optimization Software Modeling Strategies

Technology Benefits

-Easy to implement in new plants and operating plants-Requires no capital costs to implement and immediately applicable-Criterion is also beneficial for heat exchange and integration where working fluids are not identical-In simulation and optimization software, the criterion reduces time and memory requirements while eliminating errors and failures and avoids convergence to suboptimal local optimum

Technology Application

Optimizing (design and) operation of Rankine cycles

Detailed Technology Description

None
