Ocean thermal energy conversion (OTEC) plants use the temperature difference in the ocean (80°F at the surface and 40°F at 2000 ft. depth) in a Rankine cycle to generate electricity. Ammonia is the working fluid. Ammonia is boiled using the 80°F surface water, and condensed against the 40°F deep water, which is pumped to the surface. Very large heat exchangers are required, due to the small LMTDs and the low plant thermal efficiency (2.5%). The heat exchangers will comprise 40 % of the plant cost. In order to reduce the condenser cost, we will evaluate the condenser tube material savings provided by the use of a vertical fluted "Gregorig" condensing surface. The reference smooth tube condenser design uses 1.0 in. I.D. aluminum tubes, 0.062 in. wall x 30 ft. long. Sea water flows on the tube-side at 8 ft/sec. Ammonia condenses at 50°F on the outer surface of the vertical tubes with 4Tvs = 4°F. The ammonia properties at 48°F are: p= 39.1 lbm/ft³, k₁= 0.307 Btu/hr-ft- °F, и 1.426 × 10-2…

The following is how a reheat turbine works. It takes steam with a pressure of 1560 psi and a temperature of 780 F and expands it to 430 psi. The steam now returns to the boiler to be resuperheated before returning to the turbine at 410 psi and 600 F. The steam then expands to the condenser temperature of 96 F. Calculate the efficiency of the cycle.
