Infos

This book is a comprehensive introduction to supercritical carbon dioxide (sCO₂) concepts, including its singular flow and heat transfer characteristics, the basic principles of sCO₂ power systems, and related challenges and solutions. It also explores how to expand to multi-energy complementary systems based on CO₂ s unique properties and introduces the latest research progress. The relevant energy technologies mentioned in this book use CO₂ as a medium to reduce carbon emissions in the energy sector, which can help in achieving carbon neutrality worldwide. 

Supercritical CO₂ Power Cycles and Related Energy Systems is an important power and energy engineering reference for students, engineers, and scientists in energy, environmental, and chemical fields. It is also an excellent primer for those in other fields who need a basic understanding of sCO₂ power systems.

• Presents the unique properties of supercritical CO₂;
• Covers novel supercritical CO₂ power systems and implementation methods;
• Explains reducing carbon emissions with carbon dioxide.
