Supercritical Carbon Dioxide Power Cycle for Stationary Power Generation
• WP AC2: s-CO2 cycle with oxy fuel high pressure (HP: 300 bar) combustion for improved efficiency and plant flexibility.
• Next Generation Technology: s-CO2/oxy-combustion strategy can be an effective solution for the full integration of Power-to-Gas, CCUS, and s-CO2 pumping
• Technical Challenges: Availability of detailed reaction schemes (design high pressure combustor), heat transfer mechanism (radical recombination) and impact of trace species on emission and materials.
• validated chemical reaction schemes at HP is subject to many uncertainties.
• Deliverables:
1. assessing the capability of the available reaction scheme for NG combustion at HP
2. evaluating chemical kinetic models for both direct fired oxy-combustion and an indirect fired s-CO2 energy system
3. developing a reduced reaction scheme and then integrating with CFD for flow field design.
4. Evaluating and optimising different cycles to determine combustor design parameters, cycle layout and efficiency, including optimal start and enhanced operational flexibility.

Supercritical Carbon Dioxide Power Cycle for Stationary Power Generation
• Direct-fired s-CO2 cycles: high efficiency and integral ability to capture CO2 at HP.
• Reduced inefficiency associated with phase change heat transfer throughout the cycle
• CO2 (working fluid) is non-toxic, and less corrosive than steam
• high cycle pressures, turbomachinery sizes are compact

Laminar flame speed
• Cantera Free Flame with ideal gas
• Very significant variation for models
• Similar at atmospheric conditions
• No experimental comparison
Laminar flame speed: intrinsic characteristic of
premixed combustible mixtures. It is the speed at
which an un-stretched laminar flame will propagate
through a quiescent mixture of unburned reactants.

Summary of WP-AC2 : D1
• At P>60bar many of the fundamental assumptions underlying present combustion modelling (Chemical Kinetics & CFD) become invalid
• Basic research is needed to characterize the physical properties and chemical oxidation mechanisms of O2/CH4/CO2 at high pressures in order to understand reaction initiation, branching, propagation and termination under these conditions.
• Fundamental understanding of the chemistry and physics of O2/CH4/CO2 in high-pressure regimes will require new developments in experimental, and numerical techniques. The ability to predict fuel/species properties (fuel flexibility), reaction rates, and ignition behaviour is crucial for developing combustor for Supercritical Carbon Dioxide Power Cycle for Stationary Power Generation
