Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of waste heat recovery, and in particular to a device system and an operation method of a sCO2 Brayton cycle coupled with an organic Rankine cycle. Background Art

[0002] The Brayton cycle system can be divided into supercritical carbon dioxide (sCO2) Brayton cycle, air Brayton cycle and helium Brayton cycle according to the difference in working fluid. Among them, the supercritical carbon dioxide Brayton cycle has the advantages of high efficiency, compact structure and low water consumption, and is suitable for various energy systems such as solar energy, fossil fuels, nuclear power, waste heat utilization and geothermal energy. Since the critical point of carbon dioxide is close to the ambient temperature, the supercritical carbon dioxide cycle does not have the condensation phase change process of the steam Rankine cycle in the low temperature zone, and the heat recovery efficiency is higher. At the same time, the turbine inlet of the supercritical carbon dioxide cycle can reach a higher temperature than the steam Rankine cycle, and the system efficiency potential is higher. Compared with other working fluid Brayton cycles, the overall working pressure of the supercritical carbon dioxide cycle is higher than 7.4MPa, the working fluid density is high, the core equipment of the system is compact, the compressor works in the near-critical zone, the compression power consumption is low, and the cycle efficiency is higher. However, there is a large waste heat loss in the Brayton cycle power system alone.

[0003] CN111486067A discloses a geothermal-solar power generation system based on sCO2 Brayton cycle, including sCO2 Brayton cycle, CO2 plume geothermal system and tower solar system as auxiliary heat source. sCO2 Brayton cycle includes: turbine, high temperature regenerator, low temperature regenerator, cooler, main compressor and recompressor. CO2 plume geothermal system includes: injection well, production well and separator. Tower solar system includes solar tower, heliostat field, absorber, high temperature molten salt tank, low temperature molten salt tank, heat exchanger, molten salt pump and the like. The power generation system realizes the combination of CO2 storage system and geothermal exploitation system through the coupling of sCO2 recompression Brayton cycle, CO2 plume geothermal system and tower solar system, and at the same time improves the utilization rate of medium and low temperature geothermal resources and the thermal efficiency of the cycle, and reduces the cost of geothermal exploitation.

[0004] CN211950614U discloses a sCO2 Brayton cycle power generation device and a power generation system, wherein the power generation device comprises: a turbine, a generator, a compressor, a regenerator, a heater, a cooler and a CO2 buffer tank. The power generation device is pre-filled with CO2 for enabling the power generation device to operate at full power. When the power generation device is started, high-pressure CO2 is filled into the power generation device through the CO2 buffer tank to drive the turbine to rotate, thereby driving the compressor to rotate. When the outlet pressure of the compressor is higher than its inlet pressure, the turbine drives the compressor and the generator to rotate simultaneously, and the generator starts to generate electricity, thereby realizing self-starting of the power generation device, greatly reducing the control difficulty of the system, reducing the system's failure points, increasing the system's application scenarios, and increasing the system's adaptability.

[0005] CN113251462A discloses a combined heat and power system and method of Brayton cycle coupled with absorption refrigeration cycle, the system comprises a sCO2 Brayton cycle power generation and heating module and a lithium bromide absorption refrigeration module, the heat before condensation of the sCO2 Brayton cycle is transferred to the lithium bromide absorption refrigeration cycle and utilized in the generator, thereby driving the refrigeration cycle, while a part of the energy of the CO2 working fluid that has done work in the turbine is used for external heat supply; the system can reduce the loss of cold source, improve the energy utilization rate of the system, and achieve the effect of combined heat and power; the system has multiple operating modes such as power generation mode, combined heat and power mode, combined heat and power mode and combined heat and power.
