What is a sCO2 cycle?
• Closed Cycle– Working fluid is CO2
• Cycle Type– Vapor phase– Transcritical– Supercritical
• Supercritical CO2 has:– High fluid density– High heat capacity– Low viscosity

Why sCO2 Power Cycles?
• Offer +3 to +5 percentage points over supercritical steam for indirect coal fired applications
• High fluid densities lead to compact turbomachinery
• Efficient cycles require significant recuperation

Cycle Analysis Results
• Recompression cycle has highest efficiency – 53.4% at 200 bar, 56.7% at 300 bar
• Condensation cycle – 51.6% at 200 bar, 54.0% at 300 bar– Superior in all other metrics – Reduced recuperation (~ 50%)– Lower combustor inlet temperature– Higher power density (power output / flow rate)
• Both cycle configurations are compatible with an auto-ignition style combustor for 1200 C Turbine inlet temperatures.

Kinetic Model: Motivation
• The fundamental size of the combustor is governed by the timescale of chemical reactions
• The chemical reaction kinetics determine how fast fuel oxidation occurs– A detailed chemical kinetic model is required to
size the combustor – A reduced chemical kinetic model is required for
detailed flow-field design in CFD

Mechanism Selection• Primary selection criterion is accurate prediction of the
overall reaction time scales– Drives the combustor design– More important than other details such as peak
concentration values• USC-II is the clear choice based on this criterion
– Most accurate in highest pressure flamespeed and autoignition validation comparisons
• USC-II also had good to adequate performance in low pressure CO2 studies
• USC-II predictions should carry +/- 50% uncertainty in this application

Reduced Order Model
• For incorporation into a CFD model a reduced order model was developed
• Equations based on Arrhenius rate equation were tuned to match USC-II model predictions– Match autoignition delay– Match residual CO levels– Overall time to complete reaction

Mixing vs. Kinetics Time Scales
• Time scale of reaction kinetics is much smaller than physical mixing time scales
• Combustion size and length governed by physical mixing
• Use of CFD with finite rate chemistry to model this

Combustor Integration• Utilize existing Sunshot
hardware• Install oxy-fuel combustor
– Demonstrate a direct fired oxy-combustor in a closed Brayton cycle
– Evaluate combustor performance
– Evaluate flue gas cleanup– Indirect heater allows for
various combustor inlet conditions to be studied
