Summary

A SYSTEM CALLED MFR (MULTI-COMPONENT FLUID RANKINE) CYCLE USES A MIXTURE OF LIGHT HYDROCARBONS (CH4 , C2H6 , C3H8 , C4H10 ) AS WORKING FLUID. THE PRINCIPLE APPLIED IS CATEGORIZED AS RANKINE CYCLE UTILIZING SEAWATER AS THE HEAT SOURCE AND LNG AS THE HEAT SINK. THE HIGH RECOVERY RATE OF EXERGY FROM LNG COLD ENERGY IS THE FEATURE OF THIS CYCLE. A PILOT PLANT WAS CONSTRUCTED WITH VAPORIZING CAPACITY OF 5 T/H OF LNG AND WITH MAXIMUM ELECTRICITY OF 130 KILOWATT. RESULTS OF THE RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT FOR THE MFR CYCLE ARE REPORTED SUCH AS THE ANALYSIS OF THE PILOT PLANT EXPERIMENT AND THE BASIC CONCEPTION FOR THE COMMERCIAL PLANT.
