✦ Synopsis

A loop of chemical reactions is introduced to reduce the exergy loss caused by the conversion of fuel energy to thermal energy in conventional LNG powerplants. By applying this chemical loop and the graphic simulator which generates energy-utilization diagrams, a new gasturbine power-generation system called a chemical-looping-combustion system (CLCS) is composed. Exergy analysis of a model system shows an expected thermal powerplant efficiency as high as 50.2%(LHV).
