Exergetic Comparison of Bagasse-based Cogeneration Plants

摘要: ABSTRACT Sugar industry employs different cogeneration schemes to satisfy the plant's process steam demand and generate possible surplus power by upgrading inlet parameters. Though, energy efficiencies are most commonly used up now, a thermodynamically more accurate evaluation fair comparison between systems can be based on exergetic efficiency. In light of this, in this article performance three actual heat-matched, bagasse-based plants working in, sugar mills located Belgaum district, Karnataka State, India, namely (i) Hira Works Ltd (HSWL) (ii) Doodhaganga Krishna Sahakari Sakkare Karkhane (DKSSK), (iii) Ugar (USWL) is presented. analysis, addition conventional exergy analysis employed evaluate overall component assess thermodynamic losses. The results indicate that three-cogeneration perform with energ...
