Bastien MICHEL
Contenu(s)
Input, output and energy balances in a biorefinery mill. The Rankine and Brayton cycles, their principles and applications in a biorefinery mill. These cycles and the related equipments and machines are presented and discussed, with their different steps and the different options for cycle modification and improvement, and cycles inter-relations. Calculations of cycles efficiencies are detailed and the practicals sessions are done using EXCEL. A final chapter is devoted to the calculations of fuel combustion temperatures in burners and furnaces.
PrérequisThe basis of the Thermodynamics class at Bachelor level: thermodynamic variables, state functions, energy and entropy, steady-state balances, thermodynamic cycles, The Carnot Cycle, thermodynamic machines.
Contrôle des connaissances
Grading is based on the Project evaluation. The Project is done under EXCEL during the practical class, and completed at home. The deliverable is a Project Report and the EXCEL sheet produced related to the Project report, produced by each student. It cannot give rise to a 2nd session of evaluation.
Grading the Project Report and the practical class attendence and participation. Grading is individual for each student.
