It is widely believed that a large proportion of greenhouse gas emissions originated anthropogenically from the use of fossil fuels with additional contributions coming from manufactured materials, deforestation, soil erosion, and agriculture (including livestock). The global society actively supports measures to create a flexible and low-carbon energy economy to attenuate climate change and its devastating environmental consequences. In this Special Issue, the recent advancements in the next-generation thermochemical conversion processes for solid fuels and renewable energies (e.g., the operational flexibility of co-combustion of biomass and lignite, integrated solar combined cycle power plants, and advanced gasification systems such as the sorption-enhanced gasification and the chemical looping gasification) were shown.
The book comprises the fundamentals of the numerical simulation of fluid flows as well as the modelling of a power plant and plant components. The fundamental equations for heat and mass transfer will be prepared for the application in the numerical simulation. Selected numerical methods will be discussed in detail. The book will deal with the gas as well as with the water/steam flow. Regulation and controller, simplified models and hybrid models as well as the validation of measurement data are also included in the book.

It is common understanding that a reduction of anthropogenic CO2 emissions is undispensible. Furthermore, already emitted CO2 has to be removed from the atmosphere. To meet these objectives, novel processes must be developed and applied. Besides the utilization of renewable energy sources and a reduction of energy intensity, the application of carbon capture and storage/utilization (CCS/U) technologies is required. In a waste-to-energy (WtE) plant, the carbon contained in the waste is largely converted to CO2 and released to the environment. Thereby, heat and power are produced as valuable by-products of waste treatment. The carbon is partly of biogenic origin (e.g. wood and food waste) and ...
Das Lehrbuch bietet eine praxisorientierte Einführung in die Dampferzeugersimulation. Neben den Grundlagen der Strömungssimulation wird auch die Modellbildung von Komponenten und Gesamtanlagen der Kraftwerkstechnik behandelt. Ausgewählte Methoden der mathematischen Modellierung werden ausführlich diskutiert, Beispiele erleichtern das Verständnis der Zusammenhänge von Theorie und Praxis. In die 2. Auflage wurde die Discrete Element Method neu aufgenommen, einzelne Kapitel wie das zu Simulation und Monitoring von Speisewasserpumpen wurden erweitert.
