Abstract
The supercritical CO₂ cycle is recognized as one of the most promising technologies in the field of high-temperature heat sources due to its compactness and high efficiency. Current research primarily focuses on the optimization and control of supercritical CO₂ cycles, encompassing aspects such as cycle layouts, design parameters, components, dynamic performance, control strategies and control methods. However, all designs are carried out separately without effective summarization. This paper provides a comprehensive review of design and operation aspects in supercritical CO2 cycles. The integration system schemes based on supercritical CO2 cycles are also reviewed, such as combining with energy storage systems, thermodynamic cycle systems, and multigeneration systems. This study provides latest developments, advanced design, key challenges, and future perspectives of supercritical CO2 cycles, inspiring the utilization of machine learning techniques to solve optimization and control issues. It is of great significance for the development and application of supercritical CO2 cycles and the reduction of carbon emissions.
期刊介绍:
International Communications in Heat and Mass Transfer serves as a world forum for the rapid dissemination of new ideas, new measurement techniques, preliminary findings of ongoing investigations, discussions, and criticisms in the field of heat and mass transfer. Two types of manuscript will be considered for publication: communications (short reports of new work or discussions of work which has already been published) and summaries (abstracts of reports, theses or manuscripts which are too long for publication in full). Together with its companion publication, International Journal of Heat and Mass Transfer, with which it shares the same Board of Editors, this journal is read by research workers and engineers throughout the world.
