Описание: Materials for Ultra-Supercritical and Advanced Ultra-Supercritical Power Plants provides researchers in academia and industry with an essential overview of the stronger high-temperature materials required for key process components, such as membrane wall tubes, high-pressure steam piping and headers, superheater tubes, forged rotors, cast components, and bolting and blading for steam turbines in USC power plants. Advanced materials for future advanced ultra-supercritical power plants, such as superalloys,new martensitic and austenitic steels, are also addressed. Chapters on international research directions complete the volume. The transition from conventional subcritical to supercritical thermal power plants greatly increased power generation efficiency. Now the introductions of the ultra-supercritical (USC) and, in the near future, advanced ultra-supercritical (A-USC) designs are further efforts to reduce fossil fuel consumption in power plants and the associated carbon dioxide emissions. The higher operating temperatures and pressures found in these new plant types, however, necessitate the use of advanced materials.
Описание: Covers the fundamental principles involved in the preparation and characterization of supercritical fluids (SCFs) used in the energy production and other environmental applications. This book features the basics of sub- and supercritical fluids, like thermodynamics of phase and chemical equilibria, mathematical modeling, and process calculations.
Описание: This book provides a complete guide on tools and techniques for modeling of supercritical and subcritical fluid extraction (SSFE) processes and phenomena. It provides details for SSFE from managing the experiments to modeling and optimization. It includes the fundamentals of SSFE as well as the necessary experimental techniques to validate the models. The optimization section includes the use of process simulators, conventional optimization techniques and state-of-the-art genetic algorithm methods. Numerous practical examples and case studies on the application of the modeling and optimization techniques on the SSFE processes are also provided. Detailed thermodynamic modeling with and without co-solvent and non equilibrium system modeling is another feature of the book.
The book consists of seven chapters. Chapter 1 presents an overview of the field of supercritical and subcritical fluid extraction (SSFE) and their importance to food, cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries. Chapter 2 describes the concepts and methodologies for modeling, simulation as well as optimization. It presents conservation laws related to SFE traditional first principle modeling and optimization techniques, statistical modeling as well as advanced artificial intelligence (AI) techniques like genetic algorithm, fuzzy logic and artificial neural network (ANN). The characteristics and physical properties of palm oil as the most referred solute in the book, and descriptions of some existing palm oil industrial processes are presented in Chapter 3. In Chapter 4, the first principle methodology is applied for modeling of properties of palm oil components, mixtures and for the supercritical fluid extraction of palm oil components. Modeling applications involving advanced techniques such as AI, ANN and fuzzy logics and ANFIS are discussed in Chapter 5. Next, Chapter 6 describes experimental design concepts and procedures as well as statistical optimization techniques involving SSFE processes. Finally, optimisation of SSFE using first principle modeling and other advanced techniques are presented in Chapter 7.
