Isothermal gas compression and expansion processes by controlling actuators.

Author(s) : TÖRÖK A., FEIDT M.

Summary

The authors of the paper propose not only a revolutionary apparatus for the compression/expansion of gases and vapors, but also a new way of approaching energy problems in current thermodynamic installations, emphasizing the determining role of treating the exergetic aspects of the processes. The isothermalizer is made available to users, a particularly powerful tool capable of bringing innovative solutions to many of the concerns of researchers determined to create a cleaner planet. Designers and users of thermodynamic systems now have the opportunity to choose, at any time, its energy and exergetic efficiency and the price they have to pay to achieve the proposed objective. Thus, in a gas compression problem (similarly, in the problems of their transport and storage, liquefaction, energy storage through the CAES process, etc.), the energy efficiency is established precisely, by choosing the isothermal velocity of the gas (so of the isothermal temperature), and the power density, by choosing the total surface area of the thermal sponge, as well as the flow rate and the mode of distribution of the cooling agent.
