A critical technical and economic assessment of MHD power plants with heat recovery

Creators

Description

The flow diagram and the constructional principles of an MHD steam turbine power station with high-temperature pre-heating and steam conversion of the methane fuel and with heat recovery are described. Also discussed are: a) the optimization of the technical data of this type of power station, b) the assessment of the investment costs as a function of various parameters and quantities specific to the power station, and finally, c) the cost specification for every structural component of the plant inclusive of the work done during construction and development.

Abstract (German)

Das Flussdiagramm und der prinzipielle Aufbau eines MHD-Dampfturbinen-Kraftwerkes mit Hochtemperaturvorwaermung und Dampfkonversion des Brennstoffs Methan sowie mit Waermerueckgewinnung werden beschrieben. Die Arbeit widmet sich ferner: a) der Optimalisierung der technischen Daten eines solchen Kraftwerkes, b) der Abschaetzung der Investitionskosten in Abhaengigkeit verschiedener Kraftwerksparameter und -kerngroessen und schliesslich c) der Kostenspezifikation der einzelnen Bauelemente der gesamten Anlage einschliesslich der Bau- und Erschliessungsarbeiten.
