LIMITS OF INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINES EFFICIENCY
Vondrák, Adam ; Drápal, Lubomír (referee) ; Vopařil, Jan (advisor)
Bachelor thesis analysis the influences on overall efficiency of internal combustion engine, outlines the limits of its increasing and offers an overview of selected technologies of current research, that have a potential to decrease fuel consumption or production of harmful emissions in the future.
Design of aircraft power unit
Poledno, Martin ; Maňas, Pavel (referee) ; Nevrlý, Josef (advisor)
This diploma thesis deals with basic design and calculation of an aircraft power unit (APU). For desired shaft power the thermal cycle is calculated. Basic dimensions of compressor, turbine and exhaust system are calculated as well as thermodynamic parameters of air and hot gases along the motor. Corresponding compressor map, turbine map and characteristics of the exhaust system are designed. Based on these characteristics, an effective shaft power is being calculated in various off-design conditions. Dependency of the shaft power vs. altitude is also presented. All the calculations are made in MATLAB. Finally, simplified motor cross-section is created.
The Conversion Efficiency of Different Kinds of Energy into Electrical Energy and the Possibility of its Accumulation
Ostruška, Jan ; Bartošík, Tomáš (referee) ; Macháček, Jan (advisor)
The thesis deals with the issues of the conversion efficiency of different kinds of energy into electric energy. Firstly, the thesis presents a brief introduction into types of energy sources and their capacity. Then, conversion efficiency of particular direct and indirect conversion is scrutinized, pointing to factors which affect conversion efficiency. The next chapter deals with the possibilities of accumulating electric energy. These are analysed as far as conversion efficiency is concerned as well and the end of the chapter concludes with comparison of these particular possibilities. Booth parts of the process – power generation and its accumulation – are connected in comprehensive scheme of energy conversions. The thesis develops on this scheme by mathematic description of its components and by designing a simulation programme, which would show the flow of energy in the scheme.
Comparison of the thermal cycle efficiency
Přívozník, Martin ; Kracík, Petr (referee) ; Fiedler, Jan (advisor)
Theme of this master's thesis Comparison of thermal cycle efficiency is aimed on the calculation of thermal schemes of reheating and without reheating for various performances. The calculation is performed using specialized literature. The introduction describes the fundamental thermal cycle used in power plants and Rankine - Clausius cycle. After the initial familiarization with the parameters of Rankine - Clausius cycle follow a section with technical solutions to improve thermal efficiency of Rankine - Clausius thermal cycle. The aim of this work is to identify and compare the thermal efficiency of the thermal cycle with reheating, without reheating and compare them with each other. At the conclusion of this work is shown comparison between two low-pressure regeneration systems.
Thermodynamics of the steam cycle of nuclear power plants
Kozák, Tomáš ; Klimeš, Lubomír (referee) ; Štětina, Josef (advisor)
In the first part, the bachelor thesis is focused on derivation of relations that describe thermal cycles. Then, there is an analysis of the ideal Carnot cycle and the Rankine cycle. The ways of increasing the thermodynamic efficiency of Rankine cycle are mentioned, especially the ones that are focused on generating of electricity in nuclear power plants. The second part describes different types of nuclear reactors, their design, the cooling methods and the steam production. The development of the generation IV. nuclear reactors is mentioned at the end of the bachelor thesis.
Project of optimalization and cooperation of power units
Hübková, Ivana ; Mastný, Petr (referee) ; Radil, Lukáš (advisor)
This bachelor´s thesis deals with heat circulation in condensing thermal power plants and the possibilities of increasing their effectiveness. Specifically it addresses several topics, namely: "increasing of inlet steam parameters, improving of vacuum in the condenser, regenerative heating, reheating of steam and, last but not least, the supercritical steam parameters." Furthermore, it also deals with losses in heat circulation, power balance and specific consumption. Another part of this thesis deals with optimization of operations and cooperation of two power plant units. A case study shows the optimal power division at load. The cost and consumption characteristics of these blocks are plotted. An insight into the future of Czech energetics is made, theorizing about the advantages of dividing electrical energy distribution, from the point of view of economy, environment, and primarily, technology.

Design of an extraction steam condensing turbine in the Precheza company.
Pavelka, Tomáš ; Paseka, Bohumil (referee) ; Bok, Jaromír (advisor)
This diploma thesis is concerned with the design of the machinery with an extraction steam condensing turbine in Precheza corp. The theoretical part of this thesis describes the energetical situation in the company and the primary consideration about recovery of the heat, released at sulphuric acid production, for electrical power production. There is also presented brief description of the sulphuric acid production and the fundamental principles of the steam production at this process. In the practical part of this thesis there is performed the calculation of the heat-flow diagram of the steam turbine and the calculation of heat and producted electrical power at the basic operational states. There is presented the source code for the calculation of the heat-flow diagram using Matlab software. In the end there is mentioned the economical evaluation of the whole project, using the fundamental economical methods, such as net present value method, or profitability index, including the calculation of the pay-back period.
Usage of Busbar as a Source of Heat
Svoboda, Ondřej ; Macháček, Jan (referee) ; Radil, Lukáš (advisor)
This study is dedicated to the use of heat energy from the busbar and its cooling system. The study deals with thermal analysis of the busbar, both using numerical simulations in SolidWorks and practical examination – warming of the busbar. We can verify the correctness of the simulation from the measured values. To determine the temperature profile of the busbar, it is necessary to measure the temperature at various points of the busbar by contact method using thermocouple or contactless method using a thermal imager. Measurements are performed at the busbar LIA1600 made by Siemens Busbar Trunking System Mohelnice. The aim of the study is to analyze temperature busbar, to suggest the most efficient method of heat recovery, and to make economic calculation
