Project description
I am developing a new cooling and power cogeneration system on LNG fuelled vessels. The system will use the thermal and cryogenic energy within LNG storage by ORC technology.
I will use modelling and mathematic software to ensure that the ORC system can work effectivel on ships. I will explore various types of working fluids and every component in the system. Components include pump, heat exchanger, evaporator, expander, condenser, and so on. I will use an experiment rig to optimise the system parameters. I will calculate how to adapt to the real working environment on ships.
