在概述有限时间热力学理论产生和发展的基础上,着重介绍了运用该理论对闭、开式燃气轮机简单和复杂循环以及燃气轮机热电和热电冷联产循环性能进行热力学分析和优化的最新研究进展。指出了由于有限时间热力学理论进一步充分考虑了实际装置中的不可逆性,因此得到的循环最优性能是综合最佳的,同时也发现了一些与经典热力学理论研究不同的新结果。
On the basis of summarizing the origin and development of finite time thermodynamics, it focuses on the new advances in thermodynamic performance analysis, optimization for closed and open simple, complex gas turbine cycles and gas turbine cogeneration cycles by using finite time thermodynamics. As more adequately irreversibilities in real power plants are taken into account by using the finite time thermodynamics, the results embodied the integrated optimum cycle performance. Some new results different from those of classical thermodynamics are also given.
