Abstract

A regenerative plant is examined with respect to cost and thermodynamic optimization using the power-quantity ratio (PQR) and the classical thermal efficiency. The PQR is compared with the thermal efficiency index in adaptive response intended for low carbon footprint in power production. The Dataq PLC is employed for smart embedded PC control. The ranges of values of the vaporizer pressure and temperature are 5–20 MPa and 350 – 580 ^oC, respectively. By specifying the values of the thermodynamic variables in the Engineering Equation Solver (EES) software environment which was used to computerize the thermodynamic relations, the heat input and work output as well as the classical efficiency index are calculated.

发电厂的优化和可扩展低成本控制 - 一种新颖的综合方法

利用功率数量比（PQR）和传统热效率对再生发电厂的成本和热力学优化进行了研究。在旨在实现低碳发电的自适应响应中，PQR 与热效率指数进行了比较。Dataq PLC 用于智能嵌入式 PC 控制。汽化器压力和温度的取值范围分别为 5-20 兆帕和 350 - 580 摄氏度。通过在工程方程求解器（EES）软件环境中指定热力学变量的值，计算出输入热量和输出功以及经典效率指数。

期刊介绍： Journal of Engineering Research (JER) is a international, peer reviewed journal which publishes full length original research papers, reviews, case studies related to all areas of Engineering such as: Civil, Mechanical, Industrial, Electrical, Computer, Chemical, Petroleum, Aerospace, Architectural, Biomedical, Coastal, Environmental, Marine & Ocean, Metallurgical & Materials, software, Surveying, Systems and Manufacturing Engineering. In particular, JER focuses on innovative approaches and methods that contribute to solving the environmental and manufacturing problems, which exist primarily in the Arabian Gulf region and the Middle East countries. Kuwait University used to publish the Journal "Kuwait Journal of Science and Engineering" (ISSN: 1024-8684), which included Science and Engineering articles since 1974. In 2011 the decision was taken to split KJSE into two independent Journals - "Journal of Engineering Research "(JER) and "Kuwait Journal of Science" (KJS).
