Calculating Energy Requirements for HRSG in Hydrogen Power Plants

[engali]

Hi guys,

I’m a final-year student studying mechanical engineering. I’m doing my dissertation on hydrogen power plants.

I had a question….

How would I work out the energy needed to run a HRSG in my cycle.

I understand this depends on various parameters and needs testing and simulations but just needed a rough ball park.

Thanks, any help would be greatly appreciated!!

Welcome to PF.

What have you found so far in your reading? I did a Google search of your thread title and got lots of useful hits...

This question doesn't make a lot of sense as asked. The HRSG is recovering energy, it's not a device that needs a specific amount of power to run, you size it to recover as much energy as you economically can.

Did you take your university's Power Plant Design course? This question at this level is a little disconcerting...
