LOW-GRADE HEAT OPTIMIZATION OF RECUPERATIVE SUPERCRITICAL CO₂ POWER CYCLES

摘要

The present disclosure provides systems and methods for power production. In particular, the systems and methods utilize the addition of heat to an expanded turbine exhaust stream in order to increase the available quantity of heat for recuperation and use therein for heating a compressed carbon dioxide stream for recycle back to a combustor of the power production system and method.
