摘要
In the present study a number of expressions determining the irreversible entropy generation in a rotary regenerator are presented. Adding to them formulae: (i) concerning the efficiency of a steam power plant, (ii) describing heat transfer and the pressure losses in a rotary heat exchanger, a computational model has been obtained in order to show how these irreversibilities and the efficiency of a steam power plant depend on the design parameters of a rotary regenerator. Here it was useful to assume an air cycle i-s for flue gas in a steam boiler. The numerical results are presented mainly in graph form making it possible to show the results obtained clearly and to easily draw some conclusions. By first, varying the values of the rotary regenerator matrix height, distribution factor of regenerator flow area on the hot and cold sides, total leakage factor, distribution factor of total leakage on the hot and cold ends and density of gas mass rates flowing through each side of the regenerator, the dependence of the entropy generation rates on the above parameter values is demonstrated. The direct effects of changes in values of the above parameters on a normalized energy measure or irreversibilities and the efficiency of a steam power plant are then evaluated. Having these results presented in juxtaposition, some general and practical conclusions are formulated. © 1990.
