As a maintenance worker for a spicy rock powered plant, leaks, leaks are going to be a nightmare on a grid size (Gigawatt +) scale.

I didn't realize there was so much still to learn/discover/engineer about turbines. Thanks.

[@THarSul]

with the temperature range involved in keeping co2 supercritical, a system like that, one which could hypothetically generate some level of power from almost any heat source, could change the way we generate power and operate our grids, because if it becomes possible to make small, self contained units, they could be installed in all manner of locations, allowing for the creation of things we can barely even begin to imagine, due to the fact that electricity availability is one of the limiting factors on almost anything we do, and untapped heat sources are abundant in human developments.

[@Mentaculus42]

Ultra-supercritical technology is used at the RDK 8 coal-fired power plant in Karlsruhe, Germany. The plant achieves 47.5% net thermal efficiency while producing 912MW of electricity, making it one of the world’s most efficient hard coal-fired steam power plants. As a note, I suspect that this efficiency number is based on the the Higher Heating Value of coal. Another steam power plant utilizing double-reheat steam cycle and cold seawater for cooling, resulted in a net electrical efficiency of 47% (LHV basis).

[@w8stral]

Yes, coal is the best end user for CO2 turbines due to their lower Temps allowable compared to CO2.

[@Mentaculus42]

@@w8stral Expand upon what u said, I am unsure what u meant. All I was commenting upon was that the most efficient coal plants are better than what the video said. Oxygen combustion has some interesting applications where the working medium is CO2 with natural gas as the fuel.

[@w8stral]

Are you en engineer? If so you should have been able to decipher. If not, what limits Coal efficiency is its maximum temperature as it uses water and water is pressure limited not temperature limited. And no, Coal plants are no more efficient that what video originally said. mid 40% is max due to energy required to turn coal into dust , preheaters, sulphur scrubbers etc. But the biggest problem is Thot of Coal verses natural Gas. Efficiency is ~~~ Thot -Tcold. Changing from water to CO2 allows much higher Delta Thot-Tcold CO2 as a medium helps make smaller turbines due to allowable pressures at higher temps. Does have the big problem that when everything goes tits up, all that high pressure CO2 will kill anyone via asphixiation nearby and therefore will require a giant pressure vessel around the main turbines. CO2 + water can also create acid, but that can be dealt with. @@Mentaculus42

[@Mentaculus42]

@@w8stral Yes I am an ME and it seems like we are talking around “definitionial” issues and I specified ULTRA-SUPERCRITICAL steam plants with reheat and the information was from an authoritative source. One of the articles specified: A USC plant operates with steam conditions above 3,500 psia and 1,100F (593C). For comparison, a conventional supercritical unit operates at steam temperatures of 1,000F to1,050F (538C to 566C) and pressure typically up to 3,500 psia! So are you referencing USC with reheat? I have done test on regular steam turbines and am quite aware of the parameters. As I noted, the issue with using LHV vs HHV & REHEAT & the use of COLD WATER for the condenser. Unless u r directly involved with this industry, I will go with the authoritative sources that might have some marketing hype or leave out some peripheral loses but are consistent between different plants with different equipment.

Co-generation(co-gen) plants have been around for a good while.In the late 90s I helped build and maintain one of these GE engineered projects.It was a natural gas fired turbine,exhausted into a boiler compartment containing a latticework of steam capillaries.They tied into a main steam line that then fed a steam turbine,producing additional power from the gas turbine’s exhaust.I believe its efficiency was just over 60%.I retired from there in 08,cleanest place I ever worked at.

[@chrisoakey9841]

this allows for decentralized power infrastructure. so instead of a few GW power plants then sub stations, you could have many more smaller plants within town or cities.

[@geauxracerx]

This guy gets it

[@CheapSushi]

the government should absolutely focus on this aspect because it's dangerous and a huge vulnerability to have a few massive plants at risk instead of a highly connected but resilient grid with smaller units to pick up slack

[@peoplez129]

If you think the government wants to decentralize power generation, you're not paying attention. They absolutely want to centralize it so the department of energy can easily control everything. They want to shut off entire cities if they want, at a moments notice, even if the people are rising up in civil war, especially if the people are rising up in civil war even. They can't do that if cities are generating all their power locally. This is also why they're banning fuel vehicles, because they can't just remotely shut off a switch on a gas tank. This is why they want everything run on batteries, because those can be shut off remotely, and to really have a battery bank system for the entire energy grid, the only thing that makes sense is a large centralized facility, rather than batteries scattered around all over. They're already experimenting with ways to do this, for example, using coal beds in conjunction with hydrogen gas they can get it to absorb. They use this as a battery to store and pull energy. There are other simple ways that do this too, such as stacking concrete or large heavy objects. What they do is use energy to lift something heavy with a crane system, think like building a pyramid out of large blocks. Then when they want the energy back the crane just unstacks it and lowers it back down, regaining the energy through the crane because it acts like an energy generator when the objects weight provides torque to draw energy from, just like spinning a windmill. And this gives almost as much energy back as it took to stack the thing up. You would need a large dedicated facility to achieve this on any feasible scale. So the government sure as heck wants everything centralized, because they're not getting excess power from local generators for their mega grid battery project. Local means nothing for them to really have absolute control over, and they need absolute control to sink energy into these mega battery systems, not to mention they need it to be local so that the transmission of the energy is localized, which loses less energy. So they literally can't rely on drawing energy for these mega batteries from anything but a centralized generation source. Or in other words, the fact that they want to build these mega batteries, tells you by proxy that they also want a centralized power generation system.

[@AndrewNuttallWearsPants]

This turbine would work well with a closed-loop geothermal system, based on Eavor's design (see their KZbin channel) but dug extremely deep using the particle beam drilling tech from Quaise (also see their KZbin channel). The result would be a true-zero emissions powerplant safe for urban areas with a tiny footprint and a very long lifespan (100+ years). It would provide extremely low-cost electricity in large quantities.

[@stevejeffryes5086]

Quaise provides only a very vague description of what they are developing. Are they working to provide geothermal energy or are they focused on the development of their gyrotron-powered drilling platform? The gyrotron-powered drilling platform has some unexplained details which cause doubt about the technology. What becomes of the vitrified rock within the borehole? They do not suggest that they expect to vaporize the rock ahead of the wave guide. SO, how is the rock, even if molten, removed from the path of the boring tool? At the same time, Eavor refers tp their technology as "scalable". It is one thing for technology to be scalable in principal and another thing to achieve scaling in application.

[@bendover1028]

A young research down here got grant money to build a very small power plant that was to use the techtonic pressures to super heat water being pumped deep underground. When he finally drilled the shaft he was hit by a jet of steam coming straight up. It seems his idea had legs but mother earth got there first, but he did get more interest as he had found water in the part of Australia were there is none (was). That's my smart talk over for another year. Thanks.

[@handleismyhandle]

I think that any kind of deep earth geothermal is dangerous because of the imbalances it would create. 100 years of running a city is going to put some strain on the underlying strata.

[@radomirfilip8741]

The idea of sCO2 power cycles is fairly ancient. The fact that the working 10MWe unit is finally being demonstrated is a great achievement and huge step forward for the technology development. I would just add couple more info. To achieve higher cycle efficiencies, the CO2 is compressed and heated usually up to 250bar and 550C at the turbine inlet. These conditions are also probably the reason why it took so long to develop, but nowadays nickel based alloys can handle that. Another fact is that even though the turbine itself is very compact in size the other components like the heaters and the coolers are standard size as for the steam cycle. So when scaling up, the footprint si rather same as the current power plants minus the turbine hall.

[@Ayvengo21]

If it give you extra 10% efficiency with the same cost for building and maintaining it still make a lot of sense.

[@radomirfilip8741]

@@Ayvengo21 the cost of building would be much higher, since most of the equipment must be build from high grade stainless steel and nickel based alloys. So big power blocks will probably remain running on steam, but I see a big window of oportunity with smaller modular units coupled with thermal storage.

[@BILEAM33]

I thought this was going to be about the Netpower test plant that runs a supercritical CO2 turbine. But nice to know that there are more players trying this idea. :-)

[@cerial0411]

The largest issue with sCO2 is the amount of volume required. The time it takes to heat the sCO2 from liquid to gas then get that gas from the heated surface to the turbine blades causes a loss of pressure along the way. This means that some form of (highly controlled) pulsating injection may be the best method to further improve the efficiency. This of course increases the pump pressure injecting the liquid onto the heated plate and in a closed system this requires increased cooling. It is "tricky" to get sCO2 to perform at peak all the time with varying ambient temps effecting the materials involved.

[@adsfjkasfads]

"sCO2 from liquid to gas" what do you mean? The fluid is supercritical. There is no gas or steam phase. That's one of the main benefits of this cycle because the compression power is much lower compared to steam. Clearly, you missed that part of the video.. Also, sCO2 allows you to go from wet cooling to dry cooling. At the same ambient temperature, sCO2 brayton is more efficient than steam rankine. Therefore, it's equally tricky (if not less) to maintain peak efficiency. The largest issue comes from the heat exchangers in the cycle. The boiler needs to be able to be able to withstand 250 bar and temperatures higher than 800 C.

[@cerial0411]

The Co2 needs to be in a closed system. Once the high pressure is ran through the turbine it is then cooled currently by means of hitting a "plate" cooled by a nearby water source which returns it to it's liquid state. It can then be pumped/spray injected into a heated chamber and turned into a supercritical state. To maintain a more uniform and higher supercritical pressure pulsating injection would be a better method then just spraying it on the heated coils and having that pressure injected immediately against the turbine blades unrestricted. The difficult issue here is finding and maintaining a high pressure pump capable of injecting the liquid into the higher pressure heated chamber and lessening losses up to that pulsating injector. The higher pressure differential before the turbine to after the turbine the higher output is possible. Using gear reduction is another means to lessen these losses having a turbine running at higher rpm. But that also presents problems.

It would seem that small units meant to power only 5 to 10 homes, would be the route to follow. Think how much power loss is involved in current electrical grids during transmission.

There are many parts of the world, even in developed nations, that are off grid, and a multi fuel turbine system would be the answer in many varied environments.

Also wondering about the possibility of hydrogen. Apparently it becomes supercritical around 180 psi, but is there an upper limit to density?

[@dougaltolan3017]

The fun parts about water / steam are... Density, water and steam are heavy, giving higher kinetic energy transport at lower flow rates (bigger pipes can make up for that though..) Specific heat capacity and latent heat of evaporation. Water shifts heat energy very very well.

Pretty sure there would be losses in the heat transfer to the closed loop, so it's probably only a good idea when your system requires a closed loop. Something like solar thermal, geothermal or coal/oil fired.

[@tsclly2377]

Interesting, but you negated to discuss the more traditional Rakine turbines that this essentially is .. The new development is the use of super critical CO2 instead of NH3 or other refrigerant type carbon (fluorine) compounds in heat recovery. I assume that these types of electrical generators are for use in high electrical demand periods of the longer duration.. supplementing the use of NG turbines or on ships that use large multi cylinder diesel type engines (now using more ethanol in their mix) as the secondary power source.. Ideally no reduction would be used, instead separation of the pulsed output directly into the power line as pulsed DC or inverted AC (again taking the heat generated in the coil capacitance to be recycled).. High speed usually means short life..

[@stevejeffryes5086]

Supercritical turbines have definite advantages over purely expansive turbines. Supercritical turbines have been around for decades, but operated with water steam. If supercritical CO₂ turbines operate over a lower temperature range than do steam turbines, then there may be some logistical advantages over the steam turbines. With either steam turbines or CO₂ turbines, you will be adding heat to a medium, then allowing that heat energy to be converted to rotational mechanical energy. I do not see enough in this presentation for me to decide that supercritical CO₂ turbines have an inherent advantage over supercritical steam turbines. Steam turbines are a well known technology, so it will take some very convincing demonstrations b to get the turbine market to make the switch.
