Hello trnsys users,
I face a problem and I need your help.I use Rankine Cycle to simulate a
real power plant.In the beginning I used the heat exchangers for steam
generator(economizer,evaporator,superheater) from Stec library->Rankine
but I did not get the right results so I decided to used heat exchangers
from the general library (type 5b, counter flow) where the results were
better. After heat exchangers in the circuit, I use a model X2H
(Converter from representation p,t,x to h,p for water steam )to do the
connection with the turbine stage. However the result for the enthalpy
is not correct.
I use superheated steam with pressure 170bar and temperature 540°C so
the enthalpy must be around 3400kJ/kg but I get 2466kJ/kg. Can you tell
me what is going wrong? I tested the models of exchangers alone without
the other circuit to find the problem but I cannot. Furthermore, I
notice that in these models there is not input for pressure in contrast
with the models from Stec library.Do you have any idea what is the
problem?
Thank you in advance,
Tsechelidou Christina
