Abstract

Contact cooling using thermopressor technologies is a promising direction for the development of energy-efficient technologies. This technology is based on the implementation of the thermo-gas-dynamic compression effect in special contact heat exchangers that consists of increasing the pressure while decreasing the temperature during the evaporation of a finely dispersed liquid injected into a gas flow moving at a speed close to sound. Upon application of the thermopressor for charge air cooling of the engine, the following result was obtained: an increase in the air pressure after the turbocharger by 340 to 480 kPa. The thermopressor can be used as a boost stage after the turbocharger, resulting in the reduction of a basic turbocharger compression work and the increase of engine power output accordingly. Reducing the work allows for the same air flow rate on the internal combustion engine to reduce the compressor power by 10 to 12%. This increases the temperature of the exhaust gases at the inlet of the exhaust boiler by 10 to 15 °C and boiler steam capacity, resulting in an increase in the power output of the utilization turbine generator with a corresponding reduction in the fuel consumption of the diesel generator of the ship power plant by 2 to 3%.
