Heat Pump And Heat Engine

POSITIONING Of
Heat Pump & Heat
Engine
When process have significant power demand,
usually in compressor loads,it is normally sound
practice to operate at or near the minimum utility
for heating and cooling.
Townsend and linhoff make recommendations
concerning the positioning of heat engines and
heat pumps relative to pinch.
Fig 1 shown the position of temperature interval above
and below pinch. Fig (a) is above pinch and Fig (b) is
below pinch.
Closed cycle in which condensate, at T1 and Pc
is pumped to T2 and PB and sent to boiler,where
it is superheated vapour at T3 and Pb.
The boiler effluent is expanded across a turbine
to The and Pc, before it is condensed. The net
energy Qb-Qc,is converted to the net power
Wout-Win, typically a thermodynamic efficiency
of about 35%.
In fig (a) heat engine position ed above the
pinch, to satisfy the demand for hot utility
Qhu,QB is required by the boiler and net power
produced is Wout. Wout is produced by
equivalent heat to Qhu.
In fig (c) where heat engine is positioned below
the pinch,the heat that would be rejected to cold
utility,Qcu is sent to boiler.Wout recoverd from
the turbine and the reminder is rejected to the
cold utilities.
In fig (b) heat engine accepting heat above pinch and
rejecting heat below pinch.total utility above the pinch
are incremented by QB and below pinch the cold
utilities are incremented by Qb-Wout.
A typical pump is shown in fig (2),where saturated
vapour at T1 and Pb is compressed to T2 and Pc
and condensed by rejecting it's heat.the
condenser effluent at T3 and Pc.

Is expanded across a valve to reduce its pressure

and temp to Take and Pc, while flashing some of
the liquid.The remaining liquid is vapourized in the
boiler.
 In fig (c) where the heat pump is
positioned across the pinch,heat is
removed from a temp interval below the
pinch and rejected to a temp interval
above the pinch, causing a reduction in
both the hot and cold utility load,but at the
expense of shaft work
 In fig (a) it's compression load Win, reduced the
hot utility load by this amount but does not
reduced the cold utilities load below pinch.
In fig (b) it's compression load,Win increased the
cold utilities load by the some amount without
affecting the hot utility load
Townsend and lihnoff heuristics:
(1) when positioning heat engines,to reduce the
total utility ,place then entirely above or below the
pinch
(2) when positioning heat pumps ,to reduce the
total utility, place than across the pinch.
 Optimum design
Following the heuristics of townsend linhoff design strategies
have been developed.
These involve the following steps.
1). Carry out the temp-imterval method to locate the pitch
temp minimum hot & cold utility load.
2). Lump the temp intervals together above the pitch to
create interval having heat deficits, interval in which more
heat required to heat cold stream than is available from hot
stream to be cooled. Lump the temp intervals together below
the pitch to create interval having negative heat deficits,
interval in which more heat remove from hot stream than it
can be consumed by cold stream.
3). Create a superstructure that includes heat
engine and heat pump. These can be added heat
to lumped interval above the pinch and remove the
heat from lumped interval below the pinch.
4). Formulate NLP to minimize total annualized
cost of heat engine and heat pump. The design
variable include pressure level and flow rate of
working fluid in heat engine and heat pump.
5). Solve the NLP using solver like MINOS with in
GAMS.
