Outline Future Power Plants and Virtual Simulation Overview of Software Integration Project Integration of Process Simulation and CFD Demonstration of Aspen Plus-Fluent Prototype Power Plant Simulations (planned) Future power plants/ Vision 21Program Energy use is increasing dramatically: Increases by 27% in US and 60% worldwide by year 2020 Electricity is primarily generated from fossil fuels (coal, oil gas) -- 70% in US; 60% worldwide Environmental concerns must be addressed Restructuring of energy industry: under investment in RD and new players open to multiple feed stocks and products DOE’s Vision 21 program: 15-year RD program to absolutely minimize the environmental impact of fossil energy usage Energy Plant of the Future Attributes of V21 Energy Plants (1) Fuel flexibility: coal, gas, oil, biomass,. . . Co-products: electricity, chemicals, fuels, process heat, steam, … Unprecedented efficiency improvement coal to electricity: 35% ? 60% natural gas to electricity: 55% ? 75% H2 or fuel production ? 75% Attributes of V21 Energy Plants (2) Near zero emissions: 0.01 lb/million Btu SO2 and NOx 0.005 lb/million Btu particulate matter ? HC emissions in theUtility HAPS Report” 1 lb/trillion Btu mercury 40-50% reduction of CO2 emissions by efficiency improvement; 100% reduction with sequestration Modular technology development is the key No one knows what a future power plant will look like Power plant configurations must be tailored to suit specific market needs Vision 21 Example - Fuel Cell / Gas Turbine Virtual Simulation Outline Future Power Plants and Virtual Simulation Overview of Software Integration Project Integration of Process Simulation and CFD Demonstration of Aspen Plus-Fluent Prototype Power Plant Simulations (planned) Fluent’s Initial Vision 21 Project Selected by DOE in March 2000 as one of the first 6 awards Coo
