4.1 Examples.
Task 4.1. H_2 enters the isobaric heat exchanger at a flow rate m ̇_(H_2 )=0.1 ks⁄s. Initial pressure of hydrogen P_(1H_2 )=3∙10^5 Pa and temperature T_1=448 К. The heat flow removed from hydrogen in the heat exchanger is Q=145.5 kW. After the heat exchanger, the gas enters the adiabatic compressor, where the pressure H_2 increases to P_(3H_2 )=9∙10^5 Pa . The exergy loss rate in the compressor is 〖inD〗_ех=12.8 кВт. The ambient temperature is T_ос=298 К , the gas is calculated according to the MIG with a constant heat capacity, с_p^0 (T)=const.
To define:
Draw up an installation plan.
Compressor technical power, W_23^тex,kW;
η_S- adiabatic compressor efficiency;
η_ex- exergy efficiency of the compressor;
T_2,К- gas temperature at the compressor inlet; T_3,К- gas temperature at the outlet of the compressor.
Solution:
We will draw up an installation scheme
Fig.19 Technological site for preliminary preparation of raw materials.
1-heat exchanger;
2-turbocharger;
m ̇_(H_2 )-flow H_2, entering the heat exchanger.
T_1,P_1- temperature and pressure H_2 at the inlet from the heat exchanger;
T_2,P_2=P_1- temperature and pressure H_2 at the outlet of the heat exchanger;
T_3,〖 P〗_3- temperature and pressure H_2 at the outlet of the compressor;
Q ̇_12- heat flow removed from H_2 in the heat exchanger.
Let us represent the total energy balance equations (2.2) for the compression zone
∂Э/∂τ=∑_i▒m ̇_i (h_i+(v ̅_i^2)/2+gφ_i )+Q ̇+H ̇-W ̇^tex=0
Let us analyze equation (2.2) for the considered example:
а) Components (m_i v_i^2)/2=0, ∑_i▒〖m_i gφ_i 〗=0- since there is no change in kinetic and potential energy;
b) Q ̇=0 compressor is adiabatic, there is no heat exchange with the environment;
c) H ̇=0- there is no diffusion flow, no mass transfer transformations occur
Therefore, equation (2.2) takes the following form:
m ̇(h_2-h_3 )-W ̇_23^tex=0, whence the power consumed by the compressor is equal to the loss of gas enthalpy flow:
W ̇_23^tex=m ̇(h_2-h_3 )=m ̇c_p^0 (T_2-T_3 )
where:
T_2-gas temperature H_2 at the compressor inlet, К.
T_3- gas temperature H_2 at the outlet of the compressor, К.
Cp_(H_2)^0=3.5 Rm (MIG - model of an ideal gas,i.e.the number of degrees of freedom H_2 is 5 (j=5),because it is a diatomic gas).
To determine the temperature T_2 we compose the total energy balance equation (2.2) for the heat exchange zone:
∂Э/∂τ=∑_i^n▒m ̇_i (h_i+(v ̅_i^2)/2+gφ_i )+Q ̇+H ̇^ml-W ̇^tex=0
H ̇^ =0 since there is no heat transfer;
W ̇^tex=0- since the technical work in the heat exchanger is not consumed, since the process is isobaric;
∑_i^n▒〖m_i (v ̅_i^2)/2〗=0,∑_i^n▒〖m_i gφ_i 〗=0- there is no change in kinetic and potential energy;
Q ̇=-145.5 kW, since the heat flow is removed from H_2.
Taking into account the above remarks, we obtain the expression for the total energy balance:
m ̇(h_2-h_1 )+Q ̇_12=0
m ̇с_p^0 (T_2-T_1 )=-Q ̇_12
T_2=T_1-Q ̇_12/(m ̇∙с_p^0 )=T_1-Q ̇_12/(m ̇∙2.5R_M )
R_(M_H2 )=R ̃/(MM_H2 )=8314/2.016=4.124 kJ/(kg∙К)
Cp_(H_2)^0=3.5 R_M=3.5∙4.124=14.434 kJ/(kg∙К)
MM_(H_2 )=2.016 kg/kmol
Substituting the data for section 1 (heat exchange) of the technological scheme for T_1 and Q ̇_12, we obtain the value of the temperature H2 at the outlet from the heat exchange zone:
T_2=448-145.5/(0.1∙14.434)=347.19 К.
Now we determine the temperature H_2 at the outlet of the adiabatic compressor stage, T_3S.
T_3S=T_2 (p_3/p_2 )^((k-1)/k)=347.196((9∙10^5)/(3∙10^5 ))^((1,4-1)/1,4)=475.21 К,
where k=1.4 (adiabatic exponent for 2^x atomic gases)
In order to determine the actual gas temperature at the compressor outlet T_3, we write the entropy balance equation (2.5) for the gas compressed in the turbocharger stage:
∂S/∂τ=∑_(i=1)^n▒〖m_i S ̅_i+S ̇^Q+S ̇^mc+inS ̇_23 〗=0
Let's analyze:
Since the compression in the compressor is carried out in the adiabatic mode ( S) ̇^Q=0, i.e. there is no change in entropy due to heat transfer.
S ̇^mc=0- there is no mass transfer in the compressor, i.e. there is no change in entropy due to diffusion.
As a result of the above,expression (2.5)takes the following form:
m ̇(S_2-S_3 )+inS ̇_23=0
Whence the entropy growth rate due to irreversibility for the compression zone can be determined by the following formula:
inS ̇_23=m ̇(C ̇_P ln T_3/T_2 -R_M ln〖p_3/p_2 〗 )
Since the exergy loss rate in the compressor stage is D ̇_23=12.8kW, and the calculation formula for inD ̇_23 is as follows:
(inD) ̇_23=T_(о.с.) m ̇(C_P ln T_3/T_2 -R_M ln〖p_3/p_2 〗 ),
The gas temperature in the actual compression process T3 can be determined by the expression:
C_P ln T_3/T_2 =(inD ̇_23)/(T_(о.с.) m ̇ )+R_M ln〖p_3/p_2 〗=12.8/(298∙0.1)+4.124 ln(9/3)=4.9605 kJ/(kg∙К)
ln〖T_3/T_2 =4.9605/14.434=0.3437〗
Final answer T_3=489.54 К- temperature H_2 at the compressor outlet.
We determine the adiabatic efficiency of the compressor stage (3.1):
η_S=(W ̇_23S^TK)/(W ̇_23^вн )=(m ̇C_p^0 (T_2-T_3s ))/(m ̇C_p^0 (T_2-T_3 ) )
η_S=(T_2-T_3s)/(T_2-T_3 )=(347.196-475.213)/(347.196-489.546)=0.899
We determine the exergy efficiency of the compressor stage:
η_ex=((〖E ̇_x 〗_3-〖E ̇_x 〗_2))/(E ̇_x2 -W ̇_23^вн-E ̇_x2 )
η_ex=(m ̇(e_xвых-e_xтр))/(m ̇(e_xвх-e_xтр)),
where:
e_xвых=e_x3-specific exergy at the compressor outlet
e_тр=me_x2- transit exergy H_2; i.e. that part of the input exergy with which the gas enters the compressor and passes through the compressor zone unchanged.
η_ex=(m ̇(e_x3-e_x2 ))/(-W ̇_13^вн )=(m ̇((h_3-h_2 )-T_(о.с.) (S_3-S_2 )))/(-W ̇_23^вн )
η_ex=(m ̇(C_P (T_3-T_2 )-T_(0.e.) (C_p^ ln〖T_3/T_2 〗-R_M ln〖p_3/p_2 〗 )))/(-m ̇C_p^ (T_3-T_2))
η_ex=1-(inD) ̇_ex23/(-W ̇_23^вн )=1-12.8/(0.1∙14.434(488.546-347.146) )=0.937
The technical power of the compressor W ̇_23^тех, kW is determined by the following relation:
W ̇_23^тех=m ̇C_p^ (T_2-T_3 )=0.1∙14.434∙(347.196-489.546)==-20.402 кВт

1.) Let's write the total energy balance equation for the heat exchanger:

H ̇=0; W ̇^tex=0; ∑_i^n▒〖m_i (v ̅_i^2)/2〗=0; ∑_i^n▒〖m_i gφ_i 〗=0
m ̇C_p^0 (T_1-T_2 )+Q ̇_12=0
∆T_12=T_2-T_1=Q ̇_12/(m ̇C_p^0 )=1600/(4*1.29)=310,08К
where C_p^0 в-х=4.5∙R_M=4.5∙8.314/29=1.29 kJ/(kg∙К)
∆T_12=-310.08 К
T_1=T_2-∆T_12
(inD) ̇_23=T_(о.с.)∙inS ̇_23
inS ̇_23=150/298=0.503355=503.355 Вт/К- entropy production rate
In the turbine:
in S ̇_23=m ̇[C_p^0 ln〖T_3/T_2 〗-R_M ln〖p_3/p_2 〗 ]
where T_3,p_3- pressure and air temperature at the outlet of the turbine; T_2;p_2- pressure and air temperature at the turbine inlet.
C_p^0 ln〖T_3/T_2 〗-R_M ln〖p_3/p_2 〗=(inS ̇_23)/m ̇ ,
C_p^0 ln〖T_3/T_2 〗=(inS ̇_23)/m ̇ +R_M ln〖p_3/p_2 〗,
finally we have:
ln〖T_3/T_2 =(inS ̇_23+m ̇R_M ln〖p_3/p_2 〗)/(m ̇C_p^0 )〗
ln〖T_3/T_2 =(0.503+40.287 ln〖1/5〗)/(4∙1.29)=-0.2606〗
T_3/T_2 =0.7706
T_2=T_3/0.7706=693/0.7706=899.3 К- air temperature at the inlet to the expansion turbine, i.e. at the outlet of the heat exchanger, so
T_1=T_2+∆T_12=899.3-310.08=589.22 К
Let's define η_S:
η=(W ̇_23^вн)/W_23s =(m ̇C_p^0 (T_2-T_3 ))/(m ̇C_p^0 (T_2-T_3s ) )=(T_2-T_3)/(T_2-T_3s )
Therefore, it is necessary to calculate
T_3S- air temperature at the outlet of the turbine in the equilibrium adiabatic process of air expansion:
T_3s=T_2 (p_3/p_2 )^((k-1)/k)=899.3(1/5)^((1.29-1)/1.29),
where k=1.29 (because the number of degrees of freedom of air is j=7)
T_3s=626.29 К,
η_s=(T_2-T_3)/(T_2-T_3s )=(899.3-693)/(899.3-626.29)=0.756
η_ex=1-(inD) ̇_23/W ̇_23 =1-150/(4∙1.29(899.3-693) )=0.86,
where W ̇_p23=m ̇C_p^0 (T_2-T_3 )=4∙1.29(899.3-693)=1064.51 kW-

We determine the polytropic efficiency of the gas flow.
η_пол=(W ̇_12^необр)/(W ̇_12^обр )=(m ̇ n/(n-1) p_1/ρ_1 [1-(p_2/p_1 )^((n-1)/n) ]-ψ ̇_σ)/(m ̇ n/(n-1) p_1/ρ_1 [1-(p_2/p_1 )^((n-1)/n) ] )

In the event that the thermal exergy of the cooling agent is not used, since its value is very small, then the exergy losses are calculated according to the equation:

The gas pressure at the outlet of the compressor 1 is maintained constant and equal to Р2 = 5 bar due to the installation of a control valve 2 on the discharge lines. The compression process is non-equilibrium, it is known that the ratio of the removed heat and internal work is = 0,6. Gas parameters at the outlet of the compressor: Р2 = 5 bar. The compressor capacity is equal to = 1,2 m3/min in terms of compressed gas parameters. To calculate the parameters and functions of the state of nitrogen according to the Bogolyubov-Mayer virial equation of a non-ideal gas in a truncated form [1].

Task 4.7. The turbocharger is used to compress carbon dioxide to a final pressure of Ркон = 20 bar. The state of the gas during suction is determined by the pressure Рнач = 1 bar and temperature Тнач = 280 K. The compression process is adiabatic, non-equilibrium. The compressor capacity is 30 m3/h of compressed gas, the degree of pressure increase in one stage is not allowed more than = 4.
