Title: A preliminary power consumption estimate for a toroid spoiler magnet proposed for the PWest upgrade

Abstract

The estimate is based on the preliminary magnet design provided by B. Lundberg. The required magnetic field induction in the winding carrying toroid leg is specified as an initial condition. Based on the cross section areas of the toroid legs the induction in all four toroid legs can be calculated. The particular type of steel which will be used is unknown so they used the curve on Fig. 2 for the most wide spread steels to obtain a field strength in the steel. The number of steel plates and accordingly the resulting technological air gap are unknown, therefore the calculation for two different gaps .25 mm and 2.5 mm were preformed. Results of the power consumption calculations for the proposed toroid spoiler magnet for different magnetic field induction values and two different air gaps are given. Operating costs for running the magnet are also given.

  • This section summarizes the significant results of Fluor's work in the Dunn-Nokota Methanol Project Feasibility Study: (1) preliminary design of the process plant and supporting facilities; cost estimates for the facilities and health and safety assessments related to the process plant. In addition to the base case methanol plant design and cost estimates, several alternative cases were investigated in less detail. The plant is designed to convert North Dakota lignite coal into chemical grade A methanol and other marketable by-products. The plant will receive run-of-mine coal at the plant site and will generate sufficient electrical power to meet normal plantmore » and mine requirements. The plant has been designed with sufficient multiple trains, spare equipment and intermediate storage to provide an overall on-steam factor of 95%. In addition, the plant has been designed to be constructed in two phases with each phase having facilities to produce 50% of the total plant capacity. The lignite is crushed and screened and the sized coal is fed to Lurgi gasifiers where it is gasified under pressure in the presence of steam and oxygen to produce a raw synthesis gas. The raw gas is cooled and cleaned in downstream units to remove water, heavy hydrocarbons, sulfur compounds, and carbon dioxide. The purified gas, containing primarily carbon monoxide and hydrogen, is compressed and converted into methanol in the presence of a catalyst. The crude methanol is purified by distillation, producing chemical grade A product. Methane produced in the gasification process is converted into additional synthesis gas and subsequently into methanol. Condensed hydrocarbon and chemical liquids are separated and upgraded into marketable by-products. Sulfur compounds removed from the raw gas are converted into an elemental sulfur by-product. Carbon dioxide removed from the raw gas is purified and compressed for sale.« less
