CFD analysis of flashing flow in two-phase geothermal turbine design

Abstract:

A thermal power plant for the East African Rift countries is under study for combined energy and freshwater generation using geothermal water, available at above 500 kPa pressure and temperature exceeding 150°C. This article presents the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model and analysis of the two-phase turbine used for power generation in this total flow thermal plant. Flash boiling was implemented using a two-fluid multiphase model with the thermal phase-change criteria for heat, mass, ...
