Газогідратна установка для вироблення електроенергії і опріснення морської води

Abstract

There has been suggested thermodynamic cycle and schematic diagram of gas- hydrate installation utilizing the temperature difference of deep (cold) and surface (warm) seawater to generate electricity and seawater desalination. The inclusion in the scheme of installation of the solar collector allows additional heating of the working fluid (natural gas) before expansion and increases the amount of electricity generated. There have been provided methods for determining energy performance and thermodynamic efficiency of gas hydrate installation indicator selected exergy efficiency and an example of calculations for the conditions of the Black sea.
