Course Description The course covers the electricity generation in power plants, focusing in particular on the inherent relation among working fluids, thermodynamic cycles and main equipment (turbomachinery and heat exchangers). Despite most of the course is dedicated to large-scale fossil-fueled power plants, other technologies, such as Organic Rankine Cycles (ORC) and micro-cogeneration, are outlined; in any case, the developed concepts may be applied to generic industrial processes. The course is structured over three main topics: thermodynamic properties of working fluids; second-law analysis of Rankine and Joule power cycles; and one-dimensional analysis of turboexpanders. Ultimately, the fundamentals of closed gas cycles and nuclear power plants are provided.
