A combined-cycle power system based on oxygen-blown coal partial gasification is proposed to promote the performance and reduce the investment of conventional integrated gasification combined cycle (IGCC) power system. The proposed power system combines the characteristics of IGCC and...

Endoreversible Joule-Brayton cogeneration cycle has been optimized based on a new criterion, total useful energy-rate (including power output and useful heat output), and the efficiency at maximum total useful energy rate has also been determined. The effects of various cycle parameters on the...
