General description of studies In presented theses “Optimization of technical and efficiency parameters for waste

heat recovery system” both effluent gas and cooling media heat recovery possibilities are

thoroughly explored applicably for ship’s purposes. Numerous studies are devoted to

substantiate recovery efficiency both for shipping and shore based industry; therefore this

topic is going to be explored from another point of view in our researches. Since exhaust gas

heat from ship’s main engine is the main constituent of an expected outcome, then the main

constituent of the system will be an exhaust steam boiler (EB), which well-grounded choice is

important with the consideration of construction, thermodynamic layout suitability. The

increase in boiler dimensions would ensure adequate steam cycle efficiency growth; however,

that kind of approach is unacceptable due to direct changes in both initial and maintenance

costs, as well as accompanied power losses in a main engine. Meantime, for some specialized

ships there might be restrictions in power equipment dimensions, especially in height.

Therefore, in order to achieve the highest thermic efficiency of power system substantiated

choice of exhaust boiler (EB) shall be carried out with favorable distribution of convective

heating surfaces at determined equipment height. When heat recovery system is the part of

ship’s electrical plant, then it is utmost important to utilize efficiently additionally generated

energy in dependence on eventual service conditions; therefore electricity supply sufficiency

by turbo-generator should be thoroughly studied out.

Theses consist of six chapters and references (151 publication titles).

Topicality of the theses

Due to World’s economic globalization merchant trade is becoming more developed

and specialized that directly influences ships size, design and technical characteristics. On

another hand fossil fuel oil reserves are limited, already causing some shortage and relevant

continuous price increase, thus coming to the growth in trade costs. In addition more attention

is paid for environmental pollution safety, including continuous reduction in gas emission by

power plants, being supported by different International and local government legislative

requirements and norms. Thus two contradictory factors, as demands in faster and more cargo

supply at increasingly price of fuel oil, are those that will influence on shipping development.

Consequently, just the ship’s propulsion plant is the object of our interests, which should be

efficient and environmentally friendly. Besides main engine development, desired effect could

5

Page 6: RIGA TECHNICAL UNIVERSITY LATVIA MARITIME ACADEMY Arnis ...alephfiles.rtu.lv/TUA01/000024639_e.pdf · riga technical university latvia maritime academy arnis zĀĢeris optimization

be also achieved by comprehensive unused heat regeneration, the main constituent of which is

effluent gases after either diesel or gas turbine, being recovered in way of produced either

power or heat. Then just these so-called Waste Heat Recovery Systems (WHRS) will be the

object of our investigations, the highest output of which should be ensured within possibly

reduced dimension, otherwise uncontrolled equipment size increase will lead into cargo

capacity reduction. Since an exhaust boiler (EB) is the main constituent of the WHRS, then

special thorough attention shall be paid on this equipment in our studies. For some specialized

fast ships restrictions in dimensions of selected power plant are essential, especially their

heights, so that efficient cargo operation is ensured, therefore any big exhaust boiler

installation on top of any main engine might be critical. Despite the fact that slow speed diesel

is dominantly used as ship’s main engine, still another options are becoming more attractive

due to their high compactness at high output rates. First of all aero-derivative gas turbines are

being proven as perspective alternative for specialized cargo and high comfort cruise ships,

where still increased costs due to higher fuel consumption are compensated by higher either

cargo or passenger capacity at significantly lowered maintenance costs in addition.

Achievements in materials science, wide ceramic based metal use in turbine production

including different means for blade and vane cooling, allow industry to ensure further cycle

temperature growth thus adequately reducing fuel consumption. At the same time without

efficient flue gas heat recovery it would be difficult to make gas turbine power plant

competitive enough [3, 6, 7, 13, 17, 18, 22, 23].

To improve applicability of WHRS numerous researches, engineering and technical

retrievals were carried out with the aim to obtain the highest additional output by means of

both different layout introduction and as low as possible gas cooling rate provision. In a result

it comes to definite growth in exhaust boiler (EB) dimensions, i.e. height, what might be not

always acceptable with good reason due to followed rise in initial and service costs versus

additional net outcome. Besides, the big dimension boiler installation will be contrary to

ship’s construction philosophy, when high rated and compact power plant is the choice; but in

some cases it might be unacceptable at all. Therefore it is important to find out and

substantiate the conditions, under which the highest efficiency per one boiler volumetric unit

is achieved.

Objectives of the theses

Based on these considerations following tasks could be classified as below:

6

1. Waste (gas) Heat Recovery System is the object of our investigations, however its

application extent, as well as tasks of theses, will be defined by obtained

thermodynamic efficiency WHRSη , being dependable on chosen main engine type as

follows:

a. Additional efficiency growth within limits around %WHRS 3525÷≈η and

%WHRS 15≈η is provided if either advanced aero-derivative gas turbine or

medium speed four stroke diesel is installed as the main engine. In this case

recovered output by means of separate steam turbine drive is found beneficial to

ensure ship’s propulsion via either reduction gear or electric motor engagement.

In order to produce the highest output of combined gas and steam turbine cycle,

the boiler shall be chosen with respective favorable convective surface set up at

pre-determined and fixed its height [4, 13, 18, 32];

b. %,,WHRS 2553 ÷≈η , when main engine is advanced low speed two stroke diesel

[28, 29]. Here, ship’s propulsion is provided solely by the diesel, while steam

turbo-generator is part of electrical plant, and then the main task of WHRS is:

i. Besides as high as possible fuel oil savings;

ii. To find out conditions, at which diesel generator could be substituted by

steam turbine as long as possible.

2. Thus, based on WHRS applicability, there will be changes in priorities of main tasks of

the theses, however following is important in case of either gas turbine or medium

speed four stroke diesel engine:

a. The equipment should be highly effective within fixed dimensions, especially the

height, being important for some specialized ships;

b. Since an exhaust boiler (EB) is the main and biggest constituent its optimization

method, based on fixed height, shall be elaborated;

c. By means of this method different WHRS parameters shall be thoroughly

optimized to get the highest net output growth within one equipment volume unit;

d. Consequently, it becomes possible to set up convective surfaces so that the

highest output by either steam turbine or power plant in the whole is ensured at

fixed exhaust boiler height.

3. For slow speed diesel engine power plants, where gas potential is considerably lowered,

besides above mentioned tasks following additional ones would be important:

7

Page 8: RIGA TECHNICAL UNIVERSITY LATVIA MARITIME ACADEMY Arnis ...alephfiles.rtu.lv/TUA01/000024639_e.pdf · riga technical university latvia maritime academy arnis zĀĢeris optimization

a. The choice of WHRS and EB surface distribution at determined gas cooling rate;

b. The recovery of cooling media heat shall be considered as alternative for further

WHRS efficiency increase either;

c. Electrical supply provision in dependence on various service conditions with the

aim to ensure favorable electro plant set up by the consideration of eventual and

durable power shortage.

Scientific novelty and main results

In the present dissertation paper there are obtained following main new results:

1. The original method, being represented as the system of non-linear equations, is

elaborated, that allows to find out WHRS efficiency characteristics at pre-determined

boiler dimensions, i.e. height, or fixed sizes of convective surfaces;

2. Based on this method thorough researches were carried out to ensure the highest output

growth within one boiler volume unit by optimizing both thermic and geometrical

characteristics of the system:

a. It was explored the influence of each separate convective surface on system

indices at fixed dimensions of other both constituents. In a result, it was found

ultimate boiler surface sizes, at which the highest efficiency is ensured;

b. Within fixed boiler height steam pressure influence on WHRS indices is

contradictory. Consequently, one meaning of steam pressure, at which the highest

steam turbine output is produced, is defined. Considering adverse boiler aero-

resistance impact on main engine performance, the highest power plant output in

the whole is provided at another and lower steam pressure meaning;

c. At fixed boiler height it is found out such an optimal mutual surface distribution,

at which the highest efficiency of power plant in the whole is obtained;

d. Thus, both value, i.e. steam pressure and surface re-distribution, optimization

would ensure the desired effect;

e. Steam extraction for feed water warm up is proposed as an alternative versus

system with re-circulation; and at equality of EB heights following is obtained:

i. Due to better steam utilization gas temperature at boiler outlet is becoming

higher, thus reducing acid corrosion occurrence risk, however expected

additional efficiency rise is doubtful, equal to zero;

8

Page 9: RIGA TECHNICAL UNIVERSITY LATVIA MARITIME ACADEMY Arnis ...alephfiles.rtu.lv/TUA01/000024639_e.pdf · riga technical university latvia maritime academy arnis zĀĢeris optimization

ii. Meantime, there is surface redistribution towards evaporator enlargement on

account of economizer surface due to reduced circulation water amount;

f. To intensify heat transfer process tube fining is proposed as an alternative, thus

increasing surface amount per one boiler volume unit. In a result, it becomes

possible to reduce boiler height considerably till around ≈20÷24% at invariability

of other service conditions.

3. For advanced slow speed two stroke diesel engines gas heat recovery possibilities are

limited, therefore it was come out with following proposals and substantiations:

a. In order to ensure the highest steam turbine output existing mathematic model is

modified based on fixed gas cooling rate condition due to its limitation either;

b. In a result most favorable mutual convective surface distribution is found out for

selected exhaust boiler;

c. Steam pressure shall be chosen high enough to ensure effective performance of

both turbine and attached heat elements. Therefore the highest possible level of

pressure is explored in dependence on various characteristics of WHRS;

d. The recovery of main engine cooling media (water) heat was considered to

enhance practical usability of WHRS; and such a modification finally results in

Complex Waste Heat Recovery System (CWHRS);

e. In dependence on both complexity of the system, ambient conditions and main

engine load level generated electrical-power provision level is analyzed;

f. Obtained results could be utilized to carry out optimal equipment set up, thus

reducing both fuel and initial building costs, including maintenance ones.

In a practical part of theses the method, pollution coefficient from gas side ε is

found out based on carried out heat engineering measurements. Achieved measurement error

is promising low, i.e. %КУП 11103100 ÷≈∂ −ε , but the meaning of the coefficient ε is found

different for each boiler surface, what shall be taken into account during further evaluations.

Also average value for existing power unit is slightly higher till around than that

accepted in calculations, what could be well grounded due to consumed lower grade fuel.

companies. Meantime just ship owners are those, which could know eventual service areas

and main engine load level, both of them having significant impact on chosen equipment

performance efficiency. Existing results and method are being introduced in technical

guidance document by CNII MF, as well as during new-building stage of tankers for Latvian

Shipping Company. With some adjustments findings could be applicable for shore based

power industry.

Reliability of results

Besides already mentioned above practical application of findings of theses, also

obtained pollution coefficient meaning correspondence, i.e. the difference till , to

those accepted in various normative documents is found as another evidence of the reliability.

available information and setting up in correct sequence mathematic model of WHRS is built

Content of theses

Thorough investigations of Waste Heat Recovery System thermic efficiency carried

out at the condition of fixed exhaust boiler height with the aim to ensure effective equipment

set up.

In the Introduction the urgency of the theme of the dissertation is proved and the

overall aim of the thesis is formulated: to substantiate conditions, at which the recovered

effluent gas heat is to the utmost effectively utilized per one volumetric boiler unit. There is

presented short summary of the thesis and basic scientific-practical results. In the First Chapter the necessity to investigate WHRS (see Fig.1) efficiency is

fortified by the present situation in fuel oil market. Tendencies in Worlds development

towards to ships specialization, tonnage and particular ship size growth with highly rated

power plants is contributory factor to find ways, how efficiently to cut down growing fuel

costs. Gas turbine renaissance in shipping and stricter International environmental legislation

is another input either, why Waste Heat Recovery Systems are to be seriously considered

during new-building stage. Based on considered preconditions, that determines first of all gas

heat recovery system usefulness, the status quo of the problem is examined and basic tasks of

theses are drawn up. The possibility to return effluent gas heat by means of Rankine cycle

with the consideration specific peculiarities of ship power plant was thoroughly explored by

well known scientists as Illies, Kurt, V.Jenins, A.Fraas, K.Dementjevs, G.Flanagan, B.

Buecker and other recognized scientific heat engineering institutes [2, 8, 10, 35, 37, 39, 48,

49]. In dependence on main engine type the significance of recovery system will be different

that influences on priorities of investigations. When advanced gas turbine is used as ship’s

11

main engine, the efficiency of different WHRS layout could be highlighted as one of primary

tasks that ensures the highest net gain,

being explored by recognized scientists as

A.Kurzon, B.Judovin, Horst W. Koehler,

F.J. Brooks, J.Woodward, D.Woodyard,

H.Rozenberg, F.G.Baily and others [1, 5,

7, 9, 12, 33, 41, 45]. Innovations, how to

increase gas turbine (Brayton) cycle

efficiency by means of additional cooling

media (air, water) heat recovery, being

incorporated in WHRS cycle, is thoroughly

described in research works by scientists

L.S.Vencjulis, L.David., ARAI Masashi,

SUGIMOTO Takao, N.A.Dikija,

G.G.Zaharov and others [6, 16, 22, 25, 36,

38]. Also boiler surface intensification by

means of tube ribbing, including other

methods, are thoroughly presented in

technical papers developed by scientists

and heat engineers like as Frank P. Incropera, David P. DeWitt, John E. Edwards, Sadik

Kakaç , Yaman Yener, P.I.Bazhans, P.G.Bistrovs, V.Gartvigs, O.Litavrins, A.Fraas and

others [11, 20, 24, 30, 34, 42, 43].

Fig.1. Waste Heat Recovery System with feed water recirculation.

Also, when advanced slow speed diesel engine is the core of ship’s propulsion plant,

despite of limited recovery possibilities, still the high fuel price is that driving force, why

WHRS is deemed as a topical issue, being described in numerous researches by scientists and

engineers as S.Shmits, H.Veisers, S.Kamkins, I.Voznickis, V.Maslovs including technical

papers by leading engine building companies (SULZER, M.A.N./B&W, ....) [14, 21, 26, 27, 40,

44]. In reality much more information is studied out, including the present situation in ship

building; and it looks like that there is nothing new to add. Meantime, it is not as it looks like.

Already during designing and building stage of big and high speed RO-RO type ship, where

high rated combined gas and steam turbine power plant was selected with summary output

equal to 2×25MW=50MW, the attention was paid on initially unacceptably high height of

exhaust boilers. In order to reduce boiler dimensions convective surface intensification via

12

Page 13: RIGA TECHNICAL UNIVERSITY LATVIA MARITIME ACADEMY Arnis ...alephfiles.rtu.lv/TUA01/000024639_e.pdf · riga technical university latvia maritime academy arnis zĀĢeris optimization

tube external fining was proposed as alternative; and certain positive effect was finally

obtained. Thus, these restrictions in dimensions were that practical background of the

necessity for justification to develop analytic model of Waste Heat Recovery System based on

initially determined boiler height. At the same time the purpose of the first chapter is not only

to fortify the usefulness of the theme of the theses, but the layout of the chapter is arranged

so, that the main discussed principles should be taken into consideration during ship

designing. All considered service factors, as engine load conditions, service areas and others,

are essential for achieving the highest outcome during ship service, thus forecasting waste

heat recovery system applicability.

In the Second Chapter the choice of basic elements and principles of Heat

Recovery Circuit (HRC) is substantiated. Different boiler types are assessed based on both

chosen application and available service experience. Different surface engagement in HRC

was evaluated with the aim to produce the highest efficiency at lowest possible dimensions

without any reduction in service

reliability and durability. The choice of

boiler tube and bundle geometrical

characteristics is another challenge.

First of all, any surface enlargement per

one unit volume looks like as a self-

evident truth, that matches up to our

declared goals, however on another

hand suchlike one-sided approach

would lead to increasing impact of

numerous adverse consequences.

Therefore some optimal balance shall

be substantiated and accepted between

desired outcome and eventual risk.

Selected main characteristics of the

system is not something final and

frozen, being beneficial for this project,

but this choice is that necessary

prerequisite to carry out further researches with the aim to find eventual functional

tendencies. Possibly, other either geometrical or thermic or both of them characteristics would

13

Page 14: RIGA TECHNICAL UNIVERSITY LATVIA MARITIME ACADEMY Arnis ...alephfiles.rtu.lv/TUA01/000024639_e.pdf · riga technical university latvia maritime academy arnis zĀĢeris optimization

be found as favorable ones at different service conditions, e.g. other consumed fuel oil grade,

special materials, specific conditions of shipping line [19, 37, 47]. Just developed

methodology, how WHRS type is being chosen, is the main value and the novelty to some

extent of this chapter, as the impact of all reviewed maintenance factors is essential (see

Fig.2).

When the usefulness for further researches of recovery system effectiveness is found

appropriate, the application rate of it

shall be realized, that will influence on

specific task of some dedicated chapters.

When either advanced gas turbine or four

stroke diesel is installed as the base

engine, recovery system steam turbine

output is significant till ≈25÷35% or

≈15% of the main one respectively,

which is utilized for ensuring joint ship propulsion via reduction gear engagement (see Fig.3).

In this case, at determined and fixed dimensions (height) of specific exhaust boiler, the main

task is to achieve the highest gain not

only produced by steam turbine, but also

by propulsion system in the whole, what

is possible if optimal both set up of

convective surfaces and the choice of

relevant thermodynamic and geometrical

parameters is carried out.

Fig.3 COGAS-ship’s power plant layout.

When advanced slow speed

diesel is put in the use for propulsion,

available recovered power is dropping

down till around ≈3.5÷5.3% of nominal

output of the main engine; and this gain

is found more reasonable to produce

electricity for ships demands (see

Fig.4a). In a result, besides fuel

economy also diesel generator substitution by steam turbine should be the outcome of our

researches, thus without any initial cost rise there will be reduction in maintenance expenses

in addition. Nevertheless not always all demands in ship’s electrical consumption would be

covered solely by turbo-generator, i.e. when there is shortage in supplied power -

elTG NeNe < ; and usually it is

possible to compensate by

master diesel-generator

engagement in parallel

performance. Meantime, this

solution will be ineffective, as in

a result of power redistribution

recovered heat is less utilized.

Therefore, it is possible to offer

other technical and more

effective ways of compensation

for electrical shortage, if its

value and duration is thoroughly

studied out, thus ensuring

optimal power plant set up (see Fig. 4b). With the consideration of these technical

peculiarities, following specific tasks are brought out for that kind of WHRS application:

1. Provisions, at which the highest recovery rate of exhaust gas heat is ensured;

2. Favorable convective surface set up for exhaust boiler at accepted conditions;

3. Electrical power supply provision by turbo-generator in dependence on sailing

conditions.

In the third chapter it is presented the analytic method for thermodynamically

analyses of the Heat Recovery Circuit (HRC), where all thermal and efficiency parameters of

the power plant are evaluated based on initially accepted constant EB dimensions

, particularly its height , with the aim to obtain the highest gain. But before

to start for examination of the system mathematic algorithm, the necessity of it will be tried

and justified on various examples. Since boiler cross section dimensions , i.e. length

and width, are rather considered from the viewpoint of various limitations in either the lowest

or highest linear gas velocity in narrow section, and relevantly on effluent gas both amount

and temperature, which are the characteristics of the chosen main engine, then just the total

boiler height , which might be critical installation characteristic for some ship types, will

be the measure value of convective surface sizes. Boiler dimensional height is build up by

summary heights of coils of respective surfaces, including summary heights of tail

clearances and those between heat exchange surfaces required for free hollow of tube bundles

- . Respectively, dedicated boiler heat exchange surface height will be equal to -

At accepted longitudinal step of tube in the bundle the total number of coils is found as - 2S

( ) 2/ SHxHzn Δ−=Σ (2)

and this amount shall be distributed amongst evaporator, super-heater and economizer so, that

the highest efficiency of WHRS is obtained -

nzzzz Σ≤++ 321 (3)

It is practical approach to express boiler

surface via heating coil amount either,

previously accepted as square meters in

heat evaluations. When other geometrical

characteristics of EB are defined, then,

based on value , it is easy to define required amount of spares as total length of tubes, U-

type turns (see Fig.5), and expected manufacturing expenses either. Main engine exhaust

dates and quite often engine room dimensions either are already pre-determined during new-

building stage; at the same time WHRS is

deemed as something additional, which

should be placed in available space

amongst selected standard equipment at

high recovery rate concurrently. Then just

the boiler height will be that determinant

of system efficiency, which we will try to

show on some illustrative examples.

There is certain part of the World’s Fleet

built up as specialized high speed Ro-Ro,

Ro-Pax type ships including high speed

ferries (see Fig.6a, b), which construction

feature, i.e. aft ramp arrangement for

cargo operations, impose constraints on engine room and respective exhaust boiler height.

Based on once successfully developed project, similar sister-ships might be required in a

rather great amount. Further market expanding is ensured by means of prototype

modification, what very often implies changes in ship dimensions only without any

significant adjustments in

technical equipping. As a rule

chosen once main engine type is

left for other projects just with

some possible alterations in

modification, i.e. different output

by cylinder or stage amount

change; in a result there might

appear either possibility to

increase or necessity to reduce dimensions for introduced WHRS, what requires reassessment

of once favorably found EB convective surface set up including other steam cycle parameter

re-adjustment (see Fig.7).

Fig.7 Ship’s dimensional impact on EB choice.

Meantime, not only pure constructive considerations justify the choice, but also both

initial and expected service costs, being dependent in direct ration on boiler height, versus

eventual fuel economy shall be assessed either. Based on accepted assumption of boiler

height restriction, i.e. or .constHzi = .constzn =Σ , it becomes possible to carry out an

optimal choice of both heat exchange surface set up and WHRS thermic characteristics, which

might result in additional

fuel economy (see curve

1-2opt against 1-2 see

Fig.8) at invariable initial

costs.

Proposed analytic

calculus is the

generalization of

applicable theoretical and experimental researches in the field of thermo-conductivity,

hydraulic resistance and other related scientific researches, results of many of them, being

reflected as either functional curves or in tabula forms, have been processed into analytic

equations later. Consequently, a system of numerous equations, applicably to thermodynamic

processes that happen in selected exhaust boiler, is built up in the sequence of functional

followed one after another:

1. Main data choice including boiler and tube bundle geometry;

2. Boiler steam output determination;

3. Convective surface determination, efficiency parameter re-estimation against

initially accepted surface dimensions;

4. Aero resistance determination;

5. Steam turbine and combined cycle efficiency evaluation.

Such like division not only simplifies the mathematic analytic model, but it also enables to

think through about effectiveness of each selected WHRS elements and parameter level. The

choice of system initial parameters is arranged in separate subdirectories, which are grouped

either based on topical similarity or with the aim to ensure eventual their optimization. Firstly,

the determination of effluent gas parameters is important, e.g. secondary gas amount ,

flue gas temperature after main engine at exhaust boiler inlet , being either found as per

manufacturer technical manuals (see Fig.9 a, b) or evaluated by means of heat calculations;

and in a result followed other related thermic parameters are found accordingly. In boiler

calculations used linear velocity is substituted by gas mass velocity in boiler cross section,

being constant value in way of both effluence and heat transfer -

obtained results will be applicable for the same type of engines with different nominal output

(see Fig.9) just by boiler cross section alteration only, i.e. varBL ii =× . In the next one

subdivision the choice of other heat conductivity indices is carried out; and surface pollution

coefficient from gas side ε is considered as important one, influence of which is high

enough during service time. Separately, the substantiation and the selection of geometrical

dimensional values of a tube and a bundle is carried out either for smooth or finned surfaces,

based on which derivative constant complexes are evaluated in advance. Similarly following

geometrical indices, that affect either steam-water hydraulic or aero-dynamic resistance level,

are considered thereafter. Boiler steam pressure is that value, the choice of which shall be

substantiated from the view point of the highest efficiency provision by the system. However,

there might be conditions, when its upper level is limited, especially if the main engine is

characteristics. As soon as main input dates of the system are determined, heat recovery

The effectiveness of Heat Recovery Circuit (HRC) (see Fig.1) is greatly dependent

on both gas cooling rate and Rankine cycle efficiencyΨ Rη ; and within pre-determined

and fixed boiler dimensions the multiplication of both factors Rη×Ψ will be mainly affected

by optimal steam pressure choice, being explored in the second subchapter. The measure

value of gas cooling rate practically is boiler steam output, while Rankine cycle

maximum benefit at fixed boiler height concurrently with the pressure optimization also

Fig.16. Inlet gas temperature impact on optimal boiler surface distribution.

In the fourth subchapter it is explored possible efficiency gain of HRC with

intermediate steam extraction for water warm up (see Fig.17). Due to reduction in heat losses

in condenser, the efficiency of steam turbine cycle is increasing, and by de-aerator

introduction in the stage the occurrence of tube internal oxygen corrosion is decreased. As per

carried out researches then at equal boiler dimensions additional gain in steam turbine output

is not observed; nevertheless the efficiency of the cycle becomes apparent in such a way, that

it is required less gas heat as in case with re-circulation. Consequently, effluent gas

temperature at boiler outlet will be higher, what reduces sulfur corrosion risk in tail

(economizer) surfaces. There is reduction in through-flow boiler water amount for

regenerative cycle, thus influencing on surface mutual distribution; and in a result there is an

enlargement of both evaporator and super-heater at the expenses of economizer. The level of

optimal steam pressure will be somewhat higher than for re-circulation, as its choice is

turbine output remains almost

invariable, then due to higher mean gas

temperatures there will be adequate

and additional rise in base engine

methods it is tube external spiral type

In the fifth chapter the efficiency and application possibilities of WHRS is being

investigated, when ships’ main engine is advanced slow speed two stroke diesel with lowered

effluent gas dates. In a result, utilization steam turbine output level is considerably less that in

case of either medium speed diesel or gas turbine, i.e. ≈3,5÷4,5% versus ≈10÷15% and

≈25÷35% of the base engine nominal one as relevant; and consequently it is more

preferable, that recovered power is put to generate electrical energy for ships’ demands, being

incorporate in electrical plant as turbo-generator (see Fig.4a). In this case besides fuel oil

economy, just optimal electrical station set up is even more important task, as it might be the

determinant for effective WHRS service. The highest long-term turbo-generator service

output is provided by as low as possible flue gas cooling in exhaust boiler, the lowest

temperature of which at boiler outlet is limited due to increasing and destructive impact

of sulfuric-acid corrosion, as well as the necessity to enlarge boiler surface sizes considerably.

With the consideration of statement above, developed in the third chapter multi-

i.e. . In the end the boiler of respective sizes is found out with

Heating surface mutual optimal distribution is thoroughly grounded for selected boiler on

accepted basic regulations as above. The rise

in steam overheat rate above 95,0≥χ is

unacceptable because of both rapid surface

growth and companied relevant gas

resistance (see Fig.21).

Inlet gas temperature is greatly

dependent on selected base engine

modification (see Fig.9), accordingly there

will be relevant changes in gas cooling

rate , thus influencing boiler choice.

With the consideration of above mentioned thermodynamic conditions,

i.e. , and by increasing inlet gas temperature, there is a tendency to

grow down of both evaporator and total

boiler surface due to higher thermo-

conductivity. At the same time the increase

in boiler steam output makes adequate

impact on surface size changes of both

super-heater and economizer so that both

Both recovery rate and relevant boiler surface sizes will be conversely dependent on

In the third subchapter of the fifth main one the WHRS efficiency is explored in

real service conditions. Since gas power generating potential is quite low even at

recommended deep recovery rate around 160ºC, it is necessary to foresee main engine cooling

water heat recovery, including turbo-charged air cooling media one for both feed water warm

up before thermostatic mixing valve and various low potential steam consumers, as e.g. water,

fuel oil, accommodation and other warm up. In a result saturated steam consumption satξ is

reduced till the minimum, but boiler steam output is increased, as well as turbo-generator

power gain is obvious. Meantime, in order to ensure all low potential heat consumer

performance within possible service regimes, the lowest permissible steam pressure

should be not less than 7bar, what influences boiler output. Based on eventual heat consumer

distribution, different complexity waste heat recovery system (CWHRS) is offered and

thoroughly explored. Such approach is especially important, when either durable or short term

power and heat shortage is present. Briefly, other alternatives are offered for power

compensation, which might be well grounded based on this shortage studying out. Diesel

engine effluent gas parameters are greatly dependent on ambient conditions, i.e. both ambient

air and sea water temperatures. In order to represent traditional sailing regions as far

as possible, following standardized ambient conditions are taken into account-

In theses ambient zones recovered

CWHRS/WHRS power is being

compared with required electrical

energy and heat consumption (see

Fig.26) in dependence on both base

engine nominal output and load level as

well within range of 100% till 60%.

The relative efficiency gain due

to recovered in different extent cooling

media heat is thoroughly investigated,

which has an explicit tendency to grow

up by lowering both ambient conditions

and main engine load level. It is explainable by remaining cooling heat surplus against

possibly utilized one. Turbo-charged

air cooling water heat is greatly and

directly dependent on ship service

conditions, thus being shut off at

certain load level, what comes to

significant reduction in additional

net gain (see Fig.27).

In the sixth chapter of theses the pollution coefficient from gas side ε is being

studied out for COGAS type (see Fig.3) ship propulsion plant in real service conditions.

Besides the considerable influence of this phenomenon on heat transfer effectiveness, also tail

33

surfaces exposure to heavy acid corrosion, which leads to boiler section breakdown and

dramatic decrease in total efficiency of WHRS, is utmost important to estimate, being

affected by consumed low quality fuel oil with high ash and sulfur content. Although the

mechanism and theoretical background is thoroughly investigated, meantime the carried out

studies are devoted mostly for main boilers running on either fuel oil products or coal.

Sophisticated physical and chemical process of ash deposit formation makes difficult to find

it ε in real service conditions. In our case, by measuring required cycle parameters, e.g.

different temperatures of both gas and steam/water, pressure, various consumptions, the

pollution coefficient is found indirectly, based on equation solution of both heat conductivity

and balance (see Fig.29). Besides the value ε itself the determination of measurement error

is important as well, what will fortify both measurement trustworthiness and reliability of

proposed technique. According the results of

heat engineering experiment following

average meaning of pollution coefficient ε is

obtained - W

deviation could be well grounded due to

consumed lowered grade fuel oil for real

power plant versus that one accepted in

calculus; thereby the meaning of pollution

coefficient is accepted considerably higher, when the efficiency analyze of WHRS is carried

out for low-speed two stroke diesel engines. The level of pollution was determined for each

separate surface either, and the obtained outcome, i.e. different meanings of iε , is highly

interesting. It is quite logically, that at higher linear gas velocity pollution intensity should be

lower, being also confirmed by measuring results. Consequently, this value for super-heater is

correspondingly. Since the quality of consumed in gas turbine fuel oil is much high than

usually, then concentration of ash particles in gas flow is reduced to a rather great extent; and

in a result evaporator is performing as some kind filter element, what explains lower pollution

coefficient in economizer than in evaporator. Reliability of obtained results is grounded by

the fact, that with the growth of linear gas velocity there is found a tendency in reduction of

pollution coefficient ( )wfKYP =−3100ε (see Fig.30), being in good conformity with results of

different other similar explorations. To find the level of the indirect measurement error is

another important task, which is not only

dependable on measuring device high accuracy,

but on chosen conditions for experiment

especially. It is not acceptable to carry out

readings during either labile or transition process.

It is important to choose the moment, when

effluent gas temperature gradient in the section is

the minor one, as just this constituent of the error

is the dominant one. Thus the choice of measuring

results was selective, consequently ensuring quite low relative error in our case, i.e.

Conclusions In the theses the effectiveness of Waste Heat recovery System is being thoroughly

studied out with the aim to achieve the highest efficiency by optimal heat surface set up

within limited equipment dimensions.

1. The original analytic method for determination of WHRS thermo-dynamical and

technical characteristics is being elaborated and proposed with the aim to achieve the

highest efficiency at pre-determined and fixed exhaust boiler height condition.

2. Based on this method following main results are obtained for combined (COGAS) cycle,

which ensure effective WHRS and boiler set up:

a. Exhaust boiler surface dimensions are limited because of its aero-resistance increasing

and adverse impact on base engine performance dates;

b. The optimal steam pressure levels are found out, that ensures the highest efficiency

produced by either steam turbine or propulsion plant in the whole;

35

Page 36: RIGA TECHNICAL UNIVERSITY LATVIA MARITIME ACADEMY Arnis ...alephfiles.rtu.lv/TUA01/000024639_e.pdf · riga technical university latvia maritime academy arnis zĀĢeris optimization

c. Meantime, not only the steam pressure, but also simultaneous carried out favorable

surface mutual re-distribution for concrete selected boiler is important pre-condition to

achieve the highest output at finally invariable initial costs;

d. Steam turbine cycle with intermediate extraction stage does ensure effective boiler

water de-aeration. Due to higher cycle effectiveness outlet gas temperature after boiler

is around +12÷15°C higher than for re-circulation, consequently reducing the risk of

sulfuric acid corrosion on economizer surfaces;

e. Accepted tube ribbing mode results into either boiler height reduction till around

21÷25% at equal power output or the relative growth in efficiency up to ≈30%, when

boiler heights are equal.

3. When advanced slow speed two stroke diesel is accepted as the main engine, then

WHRS is being incorporated in ship’s electrical plant; and it is important to fortify the

conditions, at which recovered power is most efficiently used in long term:

a. In order to meet both the objectives set above and to ensure the production of the

highest possible power by turbo-generator, modified analytic method is proposed,

which is based on the condition of determined gas cooling rate. In a results different

surface mutual distribution is found out at new established pre-conditions;

b. Steam pressure choice is considered from every point of view, based on desired

recovery rate, boiler dimensions and other technical conditions;

c. The utilization of cooling water heat from base engine is another alternative, how the

autonomous turbo-generator performance could be made as long as possible with the

maximization of efficiency utilization either.

d. In dependence on sailing regions the value of electrical energy shortage was explored,

what gives us the possibility to determine the ways how more efficiently and

practically to recover this deficit of power.

4. Acquired pollution coefficient meanings from gas side are promising as obtained results

are close to those accepted in evaluations with high measurement accuracy. Further, to

carry out exhaust boiler calculus it would be good to consider different meaning of the

coefficient ε for each surface, thus increasing the trustworthiness of the results.

Obtained results of the theses gives us the possibility to ensure not only fortified power plant

set up, but future tasks and explorations of WHRS are updated with the consideration of

either thermodynamic layout choice or electro-station set up, based on carried out researches.
