Binary cycle geothermal power plants are the closest in thermodynamic principle to conventional fossil or nuclear plants in that the working fluid undergoes an actual closed cycle. The working fluid, chosen for its appropriate thermodynamic properties, receives heat from the geofluid, evaporates, expands through a prime mover, condenses, and is ...

Improving geothermal power plants with a binary cycle
Thermal Engineering, 2015The recent development of binary geothermal technology is analyzed. General trends in the introduction of low-temperature geothermal sources are summarized. The use of single-phase low-temperature geothermal fluids in binary power plants proves possible and expedient.

Today, the term “binary cycle” commonly refers to the organic fluid Rankine engines in geothermal systems, where a mass flow of geothermal brine is cooled in a recovery heat exchanger and the heat recovered is converted into electricity by means of an organic fluid engine (see Chap. 3, Sect. 3.6, and DiPippo [1]).

The Immiscible Liquid Binary Rankine Cycle
Journal of Mechanical Engineering Science, 1976An analysis of the immiscible liquid binary Rankine cycle using aqueous/perfluorocarbon binaries has been carried out. Six such binaries have been studied and it has been shown that the cycle is characterized principally by the volatility of its organic component.

Binary Multiplication with Overlapped Addition Cycles
IEEE Transactions on Computers, 1969With a suitable adder organization it is possible to overlap the adder operation during a binary multiplication and significantly decrease the overall multiplication time. The method is explained and a prototype multiplier described. The new technique provides a very economical method of obtaining a reasonably fast multiplier.

Performance of supercritical cycles for geothermal binary design
Energy Conversion and Management, 2002Supercritical cycles for geothermal power generation systems are studied to raise the power output and thermal efficiency by selecting natural fluids and new organic working fluids as the working fluids and optimizing the cyclic parameters, especially the condensing temperature or pressure.

Energy‐efficient single‐clock‐cycle binary comparator
International Journal of Circuit Theory and Applications, 2012SUMMARYA new fast low‐power single‐clock‐cycle binary comparator is presented. High speed is assured by using parallel‐prefix architecture, whereas low power is guaranteed by reducing the switching activities of the internal nodes. When implemented with the ST 90 nm 1 V CMOS technology, the proposed circuit exhibits a 4.5 GHz maximum running frequency ...

Optimization of helium-steam binary cycles for HTGRs
Annals of Nuclear Energy, 1980Abstract This paper describes techniques for determining optimum plant configuration and operating conditions for complex binary cycles employing feedwater heaters, moisture separators, multi-stage compressors, and a regenerator. A model describing the efficiency of binary cycles is developed in a form suitable for optimization.

Exergy-Based Study of a Binary Rankine Cycle
Journal of Energy Resources Technology, 2016The aim of this work is to study a binary Rankine process with a significantly higher efficiency compared to a conventional coal-fired power plant. This paper focuses on the design of the process and especially on an efficient combination of flue gas, potassium, and water streams in the components of the steam generator, such as economizers ...
