Control of Advanced Reactor-Coupled Heat Exchanger System: Incorporation of Reactor Dynamics in System Response to Load Disturbances

Journal Article Skavdahl, Isaac ; Utgikar, Vivek ; Christensen, Richard ; ... - Nuclear Engineering and Technology

We present an alternative control schemes for an Advanced High Temperature Reactor system consisting of a reactor, an intermediate heat exchanger, and a secondary heat exchanger (SHX) in this paper. One scheme is designed to control the cold outlet temperature of the SHX (T_co) and the hot outlet temperature of the intermediate heat exchanger (T_ho2) by manipulating the hot-side flow rates of the heat exchangers (F_h/F_h2) responding to the flow rate and temperature disturbances. The flow rate disturbances typically require a larger manipulation of the flow rates than temperature disturbances. An alternate strategy examines the control of the cold outletmore »« less

A simplified system model for rapid evaluation of disturbance propagation through a heat exchanger network

Journal Article Yang, Y H ; Gong, J P ; Huang, Y L - Industrial and Engineering Chemistry Research

This paper describes a simplified system model for rapidly evaluating disturbance propagation through a heat exchanger network. The model depicts cause-effect relationships between a set of stream output variables (target temperature fluctuations) and a set of input variables (disturbances of source temperatures and heat capacity flow rates). The model, which consists of a set of linear equations of disturbances, can precisely evaluate the propagation caused by even severe temperature disturbances and/or by moderate heat capacity flowrate fluctuations. It is easy to use, computationally efficient, and particularly helpful in analyzing integrated process systems where disturbance propagation is always a major concern.more »« less

Dynamic simulation of a countercurrent heat exchanger modeling-start-up and frequency response

Journal Article Lakshmanan, C C ; Potter, O E

A numerical model utilizing analytical solutions, has been developed to simulate the dynamic behavior of an ideal, liquid-liquid, concentric pipe, countercurrent heat exchanger. This numerical model is capable of providing time domain solution directly. The details of the numerical model are presented including the frequency-response testing of the model. Frequency of disturbance is varied over a wide range (0.1 cycle/min to 50 cycles/min) and the results are compared with analytically obtained frequency-response using Laplace transforms and trial function approaches.
Linear analytical one-dimensional model describing the frequency response behavior of shell-and-tube type counterflow heat exchangers with respect to primary and secondary inlet temperature and mass flow perturbations

Journal Article Hoeld, A - Nucl. Eng. Des., v. 26, no. 2, pp. 231-241

A linear analytical one-dimensional model is presented. It is used to calculate the frequency response behavior of coolant temperature and/or coolant mass flux, on both (primary and secondary) outlet sides of a counterflow shell- and-tube type heat exchanger with respect to perturbations in the corresponding temperature and mass flow parameters at the inlet to the primary and/or secondary side, respectively. To make the heat exchanger model as comprehensive as possible, mass-flow dependent heat transfer coefficients, an exact solution of the heat conduction through the tube walls, and (at least with respect to the coolant mass flow rates) temperature-dependent coolant densitiesmore »« less
Numerical Simulation of Critical Factors Controlling Heat Extraction from Geothermal Systems Using a Closed-Loop Heat Exchange Method

Conference Oldenburg, Curtis ; Pan, Lehua ; Muir, Mark ; ...

Closed-loop heat exchange for geothermal energy production involves injecting working fluid down a well that extends through the geothermal resource over a significant length to absorb heat by conduction through the well pipe. The well then needs to return to the surface for energy recovery and fluid re-injection to complete the cycle. We have carried out mixed convective-conductive fluid-flow modeling using a wellbore flow model for TOUGH2 called T2Well to investigate the critical factors that control closed-loop geothermal energy recovery. T2Well solves a mixed explicit-implicit set of momentum equations for flow in the pipe with full coupling to the implicitmore »« less
