... Abstract To adapt to a requirement of improving the accuracy and efficiency of calculation, a full or partial implicit scheme is usually employed in solving the conservative equations of the supercritical carbon dioxide (S-CO 2 ) Brayton cycle, and partial derivatives of thermal properties...

... transfer characteristics from different horizontal wires immersed in both liquid and supercritical carbon dioxide are studied. For a wide range of bath temperatures (5 ∼ 60 °C) and pressures (5 ∼ 8 MPa), the heat transfer coefficients were measured with a quasi-steady increase and decrease of the heat...

... with T h . Overall, reheat enhancement method has great potential to improve thermal efficiency and especially net work output of transcritical power cycle using a low-grade geothermal heat source. Transcritical Power Cycle Carbon Dioxide Waste Heat Recovery Economical Analysis...

... 23 02 2010 Reaction behavior of carbon dioxide (CO2) with a liquid sodium pool was experimentally investigated to understand the consequences of boundary tube failure in a sodium-CO2 heat exchanger. In this study, two kinds of experiments were carried out to investigate the reaction...

... 25 11 2008 An experimental apparatus for the investigation of the flow-assisted corrosion of potential fuel cladding and structural materials to be used on a fast reactor cooled by supercritical carbon dioxide has been designed. This experimental project is part of a larger research...
