Book excerpt: Increased availability of natural gas has boosted research and development efforts to further increase gas turbine performance. Performance has been increased remarkably and unit cost reduced due to achievements gained in improving thermodynamic cycles and cooling technologies. However, increased complexity in power industry regulations and fluctuations in fuel price have indicated that all the aforementioned improvements in gas turbine performance could not cope with the increased competition in the gas turbine industrial market. Innovation within the aero-derivative concept has enabled further significant improvement in the performance of industrial gas turbines. It allows a more beneficial approach than developing new designs of industrial gas turbines owing to reduced designing time and cost. Objectives in this project focus on developing a methodology of design and assessing aeroderivative gas turbine engines derived from a 130-seat aircraft engine. Developed methodology includes techno-economic and environmental assessment, conducted through further developments of models based on Techno-economic and Environmental Risk Assessment (TERA) philosophy, to be applied in further industrial applications. Tools used in this investigation include a significant literature research on the development of aero-derivative gas turbine technologies, including thermodynamic cycles and its land-based applications. Turbomatch is a homebased code developed in Cranfield University, used in calculating design point and predicting off-design performance of parent aero-engine and the aeroderivative engines developed. Excel and FORTRAN code are also used in calculating engine's design parameters, and creating a model of life estimation Creep. Moreover, FORTRAN code is used for building emission and economic models for power generation and combined heat and power applications. Finally, MATLAP code is used in creating a small model for generating performance TXT files, and running marine integrated models platform. All models needed to develop the methodology have been created, and calculations of an engine's performance and assessment were conducted based on this developed methodology. Sensible results are generated from the investigated methodology and they show acceptable designs of aero-derivative engines on different thermodynamic cycles. Based on the acceptable level of technology and material thermal barriers, all design and off-design performance limitations of new developed aero-derivative engines have been determined for a wide range of ambient conditions. Techno-economic and environmental assessment performed through implementing the developed aero-derivative engines on power generation and marine applications under different operating scenarios. Results of operating the engines on power generation and marine applications have been investigated and compared. It is observed that engines respond differently when operating under different environmental profiles, depending on the number of units engaged and their thermodynamic cycle as well as mechanical configurations. Also, the selected specific gas turbine engine can be the best economical choice for operating on determined scenario, while it cannot be when operating in different scenarios. Assessment of developed engines on the investigated application shows how the lowest specific cost (small engine size) can constitute important criteria in engine selection.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Natural gas being the cleanest fossil fuel today is receiving tremendous rise in demand for both industrial and domestic energy requirements. The availability of natural gas requires it to be transported from the production area through pipeline in most cases to the consumers; this requires compressor station mostly driven by gas turbine. The development of gas pipeline system requires important data such as appropriate pipe sizes, gas rate, required delivery pressure, appropriate compressor and gas turbine sizes. The investment for the pipeline and compressor station is capital intensive and therefore the techno-economic and environmental risk assessment tool to rapidly assess the pipeline becomes imperative. The objective of this project is to look at advanced pipelines and the close coupling of the compression system with advanced prime mover cycles. The investigation offers a comparative assessment of traditional and novel prime mover options including the design and off-design performance of gas turbine engine and the economic analysis of the system. The originality of the work lies in the technical and economic optimization of gas turbines and fluid movers, based on current and novel cycles for a novel pipeline application in a wide range of climatic conditions. The techno-economic and environmental risk assessment (TERA) tool created is made up of a number of modules, starting with the pipeline and compressor station modules which compute the necessary flow parameters and compressor performance, as well as the required compressor power. The next is the gas turbine performance simulation module, TURBOMATCH software was used to simulate the performance of the selected gas turbine engines at design and off-design conditions and it computes the thermodynamic conditions in the core of the engine. Receiving information from the performance simulation module, the emission module, which is based on combustion equations, estimates the amount of emission over the period of operation of the gas turbine. The economic module, which is essential to the tool, receives information from all the other modules to establish the life cycle cost and use the net present value (NPV) methodology to assess the plant. It also calculates all associated costs, as well as the cost of transporting natural gas. The economic module establishes the economic pipe size for any particular throughput. The electric motor drive module is the parallel arm of the methodology, handling all the modules as explained earlier except the gas turbine performance and emission modules. This allows a comparative assessment of gas turbine and electric motor drives to be carried out under any prevailing conditions. This methodology is unique to natural gas pipeline techno-economic assessment and no previous studies have looked at various aspects of the pipeline project before selecting a prime mover or an economic pipe size. This study further uses a genetic algorithm optimization tool to optimize gas turbine selection and compressor station location along the pipeline, based on total cost objective function. The optimization is limited to a particular pipe size and gas throughput. The use of various pipe sizes as well as varying throughput will be a major area for further studies. The results from the individual models are presented in chapters 3, 4 and 5. The result of the integrated modules under case study one and two shows that the transportation of 0.5 million cubic meter per day of natural gas over long distance interstate pipeline for both prime movers is uneconomical. The economic pipe size for 3.0 million cubic meter per day of natural gas is 609.6 mm (24") pipe size for the two prime movers with transportation cost of $0.063/m3 and $0.056/m3 for gas turbine and electric motors respectively. This is equivalent to $1.46/GJ and $1.30/GJ which agrees with the cost of natural gas transportation in literature. The result of the optimization shows a clear preference for the selection of a 34 MW plant for the pipeline and throughput considered since this presents the minimum cost which is the definition of the genetic algorithm optimizer. It is worth noting that this techno-economic tool, which is made of many modules, can be used to rapidly assess the profitability or otherwise of a natural gas pipeline project.

Download or read book Thermo Economic and Risk Analysis for Advanced Long-range Aero Engines written by and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To conceive and assess engines with minimum global warming impact and lowest cost of ownership in a variety of emission legislation scenarios, emissions taxation policies, fiscal and Air Traffic Management environments a Techno economic and Environmental Risk Assessment (TERA) model is needed. In the first part of this thesis an approach is presented to estimate the cost of maintenance and the direct operating costs of turbofan engines of equivalent thrust rating, both for long and short range applications. The three advanced types of turbofan engines analysed here are a direct drive three spool with ultra high bypass ratio, a geared turbofan with the same fan as the direct drive engine and a turbofan with counter rotating fans. The baseline engines are a three spool for long range (Trent 772b) and a two spool (CFM56-7b) for short range applications. The comparison with baseline engines shows the gains and losses of these novel cycle engines. The economic model is composed of three modules: a lifing module, an economic module and a risk module. The lifing module estimates the life of the high pressure turbine disk and blades through the analysis of creep and fatigue over a full working cycle of the engine. These two phenomena are usually the most limiting factors to the life of the engine. The output of this module is the amount of hours that the engine can sustain before its first overhaul (called time between overhauls). The value of life calculated by the lifing is then taken as the baseline distribution to calculate the life of other important modules of the engine using the Weibull approach. The Weibull formulation is applied to the life analysis of different parts of the engine in order to estimate the cost of maintenance, the direct operating costs (DOC) and net present cost (NPC) of turbofan engines. The Weibull distribution is often used in the field of life data analysis due to its flexibility--it can mimic the behavior of other statistical distributions su.

The baseline engines are athree spool for long range (Trent 772b) and a two spool (CFM56-7b) for shortrange applications. The comparison with baseline engines shows the gainsand losses of these novel cycle engines. The economic model is composed of three modules: a lifing module, aneconomic module and a risk module. The lifing module estimates the life of the high pressure turbine disk andblades through the analysis of creep and fatigue over a full working cycle ofthe engine. These two phenomena are usually the most limiting factors to thelife of the engine. The output of this module is the amount of hours that theengine can sustain before its first overhaul (called time between overhauls). The value of life calculated by the lifing is then taken as the baselinedistribution to calculate the life of other important modules of the engine usingthe Weibull approach. The Weibull formulation is applied to the life analysis ofdifferent parts of the engine in order to estimate the cost of maintenance, thedirect operating costs (DOC) and net present cost (NPC) of turbofan engines. The Weibull distribution is often used in the field of life data analysis due to itsflexibility?it can mimic the behavior of other statistical distributions such as the normal and the exponential. In the present work five Weibull distributionsare used for five important sources of interruption of the working life of theengine: Combustor, Life Limited Parts (LLP), High Pressure Compressor(HPC), General breakdowns and High Pressure Turbine (HPT). The Weibullanalysis done in this work shows the impact of the breakdown of differentparts of the engine on the NPC and DOC, the importance that each module ofthe engine has in its life, and how the application of the Weibull theory canhelp us in the risk assessment of future aero engines. Then the lower of the values of life of all the distributions is taken as timebetween overhaul (TBO), and used into the economic module calculations. The economic module uses the time between overhaul together with the costof labour and the cost of the engine (needed to determine the cost of spareparts) to estimate the cost of maintenance of the engine. The direct operatingcosts (DOC) of the engine are derived as a function of maintenance cost withthe cost of taxes on emissions and noise, the cost of fuel, the cost ofinsurance and the cost of interests paid on the total investment. The DOC ofthe aircraft include also the cost of cabin and flight crew and the cost oflanding, navigational and ground handling fees. With knowledge of the DOCthe net present cost (NPC) for both the engine and the aircraft can beestimated over an operational period of about 30 years. The risk model uses the Monte Carlo method with a Gaussian distribution tostudy the impact of the variations in some parameters on the NPC. Some ofthe parameters considered in the risk scenarios are fuel price, interestpercentage on total investment, inflation, downtime, maintenance labour costand factors used in the emission and noise taxes. The risk analyses theinfluence of these variables for ten thousands scenarios and then acumulative frequency curve is built by the model to understand the frequencyof the most probable scenarios. After the conclusion of the analysis of the VITAL engines as they werespecified by the Original Engine Manufacturer (OEM) (Roll? Royce, Snecmaand MTU), an optimisation work was done in order to try to improve the engines. The optimisation was done using two numerical gradient basedtechniques Firstly the Sequential Quadratic Programming? NLPQL andsecondly the Mixed Integer Optimization? MOST; the objectives of theoptimisation were two: minimum fuel burn and minimum direct operatingcosts. Because the engines were already optimized for minimum fuel burn, the optimization for minimum fuel burn didn?t show any meaningful results;instead the results for minimum DOC showed that the engines can have someimprovements. The ability of the three VITAL configurations to meet the future goals of theEuropean Union to reduce noise and gaseous emission has been assessedand has showed that the three engines cannot fully comply with futurelegislation beyond 2020. In the second part of this thesis three further advanced configurations havebeen studied to determine whether these are potential solutions to meet theACARE goals of 2020. For these more advanced aero engines only a performance and gaseousemissions analysis has been done, because it was no possible to do aneconomic analysis for the new components of these engines. Theseadvanced configurations feature components that have been studied only inlaboratories, like the heat exchangers for the ICR, the wave rotor and theconstant volume combustor, and for these it has not been done a lifinganalysis that is fundamental in order to understand the costs of maintenance, besides in order to do a proper direct operating costs analysis manyoperational flight hours are needed and none of these engine have reachedTRL of 7 and more which is the stage where flight hour tests are conducted. In this thesis a parametric study on three different novel cycles which could beapplied to aircraft propulsion is presented:1. Intercooled recuperative,2. wave rotor and3. Constant volume combustion cycle. These three cycles have been applied to a characteristic next generation longrange aero engine (geared turbofan) looking for a possible future evolutionand searching for benefits on specific thrust fuel consumption and emissions. The parametric study has been applied to Top of Climb conditions, the designpoint, at Mach number 0.82, ISA deviation of 10 degrees and an altitude of10686 m and at cruise condition, considering two possible designs:a) Design for constant specific thrust andb) Design for constant TET or the current technology levelBoth values correspond to the baseline engine. For the intercooled enginealso a weight and drag impact on fuel consumption has been done, in order tounderstand the impact of weight increase on the benefits of the configuration, considering different values of the effectiveness of the heat exchangers, thehigher the values the greater is the technical challenge of the engine. After studying the CVC and Wave rotor separately it has been decided to do aparametric study of an aero engine that comprises both configurations: theinternal combustion wave rotor (ICWR). The ICWR is a highly unsteadydevice, but offers significant advantages when combined with gas turbines. Since it is a constant volume combustion device there is a pressure raiseduring combustion, this will result in having lower SFC and higher thermalefficiency. It is an advanced and quite futuristic, with a technology readinesslevel (TRL) of 6 or higher only by 2025, so only a preliminary performancestudy is done, leaving to future studies the task of a more improved analysis.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book demonstrates the potential of the blended wing body (BWB) concept for significant improvement in both fuel efficiency and noise reduction and addresses the considerable challenges raised for control engineers because of characteristics like open-loop instability, large flexible structure, and slow control surfaces. This text describes state-of-the-art and novel modeling and control design approaches for the BWB aircraft under consideration. The expert contributors demonstrate how exceptional robust control performance can be achieved despite such stringent design constraints as guaranteed handling qualities, reduced vibration, and the minimization of the aircraft’s structural loads during maneuvers and caused by turbulence. As a result, this innovative approach allows the building of even lighter aircraft structures, and thus results in considerable efficiency improvements per passenger kilometer. The treatment of this large, complex, parameter-dependent industrial control problem highlights relevant design issues and provides a relevant case study for modeling and control engineers in many adjacent disciplines and applications. Modeling and Control for a Blended Wing Body Aircraft presents research results in numeric modeling and control design for a large, flexible, civil BWB aircraft in the pre-design stage as developed within the EU FP7 research project ACFA 2020.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aspects of gas turbine design that are explored herein are focussed on reduction or elimination of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions and reduction of noise. There are 3 separate but related investigations. 1. Aero gas turbine engine thermodynamic cycles for subsonic transport aircraft are explored to optimise performance (thus reducing CO2 emissions) and to minimise noise; particular attention is paid to choices of fan pressure ratio, bypass ratio, installation configuration and fan design. Turbofans with long and short cowls are explored, as are propfans of various bypass ratios. The performance and noise comparisons of the engines are made using consistent technology standards; this approach is not apparently available in the literature. It is shown that relative to present day engines, useful improvements in Direct Operating Cost (DOC), fuel burn and noise are possible. It is shown, not surprisingly, that the optimum installed engine cycles for performance and noise are different. 2. The performance effects of using hydrogen fuel in "conventional" aero gas turbine engines are discussed. Also, some novel un-conventional hydrogen fuelled aero gas turbine cycles are examined. Hydrogen fuelled engines create no emissions of CO2; however, this environmental benefit is partly offset by the increased water in the engine contrails. It is shown that "conventional" engines benefit from using hydrogen fuel, measured by the thrust obtained for a given fuel energy input rate. The novel un-conventional configurations that are examined offer useful performance benefits, including significant power increases, by suitable use of the cold "sink" and high pressure of the liquid hydrogen fuel. 3. Two ways of eliminating CO2 emissions from industrial gas turbines are examined. The first is by use of hydrogen-rich fuel. There are performance gains, as with the aero engines; however in the industrial cases, the hydrogen is sometimes produced in such a way that it is mixed with substan.

This book was released on 2022 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The design of aero-derivative gas turbines (AGT) at Siemens Energy is a complex process that requires the use of various software tools for mechanical design, validation and testing. Due to the evolutionary nature of AGT development, changes are incremental and built upon previous models. Therefore, it is preferred to utilize the same tools that were initially developed and adopted decades ago in order to preserve the models and their real world offsets. Executing finite element analysis (FEA) at Siemens Energy is computationally intensive while its legacy tool is designed to be manually deployed onto local desktops and servers in a sequential manner. Consequently, the analysis of multiple AGT designs is a laborious process requiring users to invoke custom tool scripts on a limited pool of local computing resources. Users are responsible for maintaining each computing environment and have to checkpoint each analysis task manually. To address these challenges, I propose to cloudify the legacy FEA software tool by designing and developing an Analysis Tool as a Service (ATaaS) with a distributed microservice architecture that provides automation, scalability and distribution of the FEA software in a hybrid cloud deployment. The thesis contributions include (1) a distributed software architecture for ATaaS, (2) a prototype implementation for ATaaS integrating a legacy FEA tool used at Siemens and (3) various performance estimation models for executing FEA over ATaaS. (4) To validate the proposed architecture, models and prototype implementation, I carry out an experimental evaluation of performance and the functional testing of key components"--
