Electricity would be transmitted through cables to consumers. The plant aims to provide clean, renewable energy to the area at a lower cost than fossil fuels.
A very good news for the farmers of the India interested in installing solar powered water pumping system to irrigate their farms.
At Claro, we believe that an improvement in water productivity can be done through revitalizing irrigation technology through solar powered water pumps.
Cogeneration operations can be improved by reducing moisture content at milling and also later using dryer with flue gases. Energy generation with sugarcane bagasse and trash has the potential to supply a substantial amount of electricity. However, this potential has not been fully developed. There is the need to develop the necessary technology (strategy and equipment) to implement trash recovery and its use as supplementary fuel to bagasse at sugarcane mills, at attractive cost and without hindering mill operations. If this can be done, it will be possible to produce electric energy around the year, selling guaranteed electricity on a profitable basis to end consumers.

Hierarchical Digital Twin of a Naval Power SystemKerry Sado
A hierarchical digital twin of a Naval DC power system has been developed and experimentally verified. Similar to other state-of-the-art digital twins, this technology creates a digital replica of the physical system executed in real-time or faster, which can modify hardware controls. However, its advantage stems from distributing computational efforts by utilizing a hierarchical structure composed of lower-level digital twin blocks and a higher-level system digital twin. Each digital twin block is associated with a physical subsystem of the hardware and communicates with a singular system digital twin, which creates a system-level response. By extracting information from each level of the hierarchy, power system controls of the hardware were reconfigured autonomously. This hierarchical digital twin development offers several advantages over other digital twins, particularly in the field of naval power systems. The hierarchical structure allows for greater computational efficiency and scalability while the ability to autonomously reconfigure hardware controls offers increased flexibility and responsiveness. The hierarchical decomposition and models utilized were well aligned with the physical twin, as indicated by the maximum deviations between the developed digital twin hierarchy and the hardware.

CFD Simulation of By-pass Flow in a HRSG module by R&R Consult.pptxR&R Consult
CFD analysis is incredibly effective at solving mysteries and improving the performance of complex systems!
Here's a great example: At a large natural gas-fired power plant, where they use waste heat to generate steam and energy, they were puzzled that their boiler wasn't producing as much steam as expected.
R&R and Tetra Engineering Group Inc. were asked to solve the issue with reduced steam production.
An inspection had shown that a significant amount of hot flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes, where the heat was supposed to be transferred.
R&R Consult conducted a CFD analysis, which revealed that 6.3% of the flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes without transferring heat. The analysis also showed that the flue gas was instead being directed along the sides of the boiler and between the modules that were supposed to capture the heat. This was the cause of the reduced performance.
Based on our results, Tetra Engineering installed covering plates to reduce the bypass flow. This improved the boiler's performance and increased electricity production.
It is always satisfying when we can help solve complex challenges like this. Do your systems also need a check-up or optimization? Give us a call!
Work done in cooperation with James Malloy and David Moelling from Tetra Engineering.

3. Introduction
This System Design Document has been created to outline the
proposed system design for new geothermal power plant in Savusavu.
The new system is intended for the production of electricity from the
geothermal station for the consumers of Vanualevu hoping to get a
clean and renewable energy. The new system design indented to be
build is the binary power plant, it will replace the fossil fuel driven
generators 20 to 50 MW of power would be produced in a renewable
manner. The binary power station would require the brine or the
aquifer at 70-200 degrees Celsius. The binary cycle power plant has one
major advantage over flash steam and dry steam power plants: The
water-temperature can be as low as 57°C (135°F).
The water coming from the geothermal reservoirs through the
production wells is never in direct contact with the working fluid. After
the some of its thermal energy is transferred to the working fluid with
a heat exchanger, the water is sent back to the reservoir through the
injection wells where it regains its thermal energy.
4. Introduction (cont.)
These power plants have a thermal efficiency rate of only 10-13%. However,
geothermal binary cycle power plants enable us, through lowering temperature
requirements, to harness geothermal energy from reservoirs that with a dry- or
a flash steam power plant wouldn’t be possible.
Looking at the number of people living and demand for power in Vanua Levu,
it is less when compared to the demand of power in Viti Levu. Nevertheless the
population size in Vanua Levu is small but there is need for the people in
Savusavu to access electricity with minimum cost and reliable energy source for
reducing the consumption of fossil fuels. Therefore, geothermal is a renewable
energy source which can reduce the emission of carbon dioxide into earth’s
surroundings and can minimize the cost to make people in Savusavu Area get
access to electricity.
Furthermore, to represent an engineering design of a model, each and every
components of the system should be considered and gathered information
about each parts in order to know the function of each components in the
system. As stated above, we will design the model of Binary power plant for
Savusavu Area in Vanua Levu. Therefore, different parts of this system will do
different works starting from extraction, power conversion, power
transmission/transportation and delivering of power to customers.
5. Constrains
The people of Vanualevu demands a stable electricity
supply that is cheap and clean to use.

8. Classification of geothermal energy towards
clients
Resources classification is a key element in the characterization,
assessment and development of geothermal energy.
Stakeholders at all levels of government, with in the geothermal
industry, and among the general public need to be able to use and
understand consistent terminology regarding issues such as location,
quality, feasibility, of development, and potential impacts.
Terminology must encompass both the geothermal nature of
geothermal resources and the practical technological and economic
aspects of resources exploitation while reaming understandable to the
broad community of non-specialists.
9. Environment measurable performance

18. Transmission of electricity
The 20MW power will be supplied to the consumers by
electric transmission cables by the help of
transformers electricity will supplied to every
household and industries.
19. Cost
Direct use of geothermal energy is a absolutely cheaper than other
energy sources.
Cost of electricity generation depends upon certain factors.
1. Temperature and depth of resources
2. Type of resources ( steam, liquid, mix)
3. Available volume of resources
4. Size and technology of plant
The initial investment is high
But after certain time period , the cost of electricity becomes
comparable to other resources of energy.
20. social requirements of geothermal energy
Expectations of local communities, governments, development
organizations, nongovernmental organizations (NGOs), and other
stakeholders have risen significantly regarding how effectively
companies should mitigate environmental impacts of their activities.
These expectations have been explicitly expanded to include social
issues and impacts, which are often not seriously discussed in
environmental impact assessment reports. In developing countries,
expectations have been made complex by the challenges associated
with sustainable development. To meet these challenges, governments
through their legal systems must develop regulation on creation of a
level field for industrial competition and investment without
jeopardizing the needs of the local communities and other affected
parties.
21. Economic requirements of geothermal
energy
Marketing analysis – size of market, distribution, market segments
Design costs – design team computing, information retrieval
Development costs – design detailing, supplier costs, testing costs
Manufacturing cost - tooling, labor, overhead, assembly, inspection
Distribution costs - packing, transport, service centres, spare parts,
warranty
Resources – time, budget, labor, capital, machines, material
22. Environmental requirements of
geothermal energy
Compatibility with other land-uses. Geothermal power plants
require relatively little land. The installations don’t require damming of
rivers or harvesting of forests, and there are no mineshafts, tunnels,
open pits, waste heaps or oil spills. They can be sited in farmland and
forests and can share land with cattle and local wildlife.
Renewability of the resource. Geothermal energy has been classified
under clean and renewable resource. The resource can be described as
renewable only if the rate of extraction is less than the recharge rate.
Sustainable use of the resource can be attained through reinjection and
reservoir flow monitoring.
23. Life cycle costing of the system
The total amount of installing the system would be
close to 50 million dollars, which will take 2.5 million
per MW. The aim of achieving this 50 million would
take approximately 30 years, with 149000KWh of
electricity 55240000 dollars of electricity would be
sold. The maintenance and operation will cost
2762000 dollars. So at this at a breakeven rate of sale of
electricity at 0.12dollars/kWh would give back
15145000 dollars for the life cycle cost of this
geothermal power plant system.
24. Conclusion
Geothermal heating system can be replace fossil fuel heating system in
a particular area.
Annual costs for common heating purpose can be reduced by more
than 60%.
Continued energy shortages have created added interest in geothermal
energy for power generation.
Geothermal energy appears to be a partial solution to our energy needs.
