Turbine

Contents

Turbine#

The Turbine model is a PressureChanger, where the configuration is set so that the “compressor” option can only be False, and the default “thermodynamic_assumption” is “isentropic.” See the PressureChanger documentation for details.

Example#

The example below demonstrates the basic Turbine model usage:

import pyomo.environ as pyo
from idaes.core import FlowsheetBlock
from idaes.models.unit_models import Turbine
from idaes.models.properties import iapws95

m = pyo.ConcreteModel()
m.fs = FlowsheetBlock(dynamic=False)
m.fs.properties = iapws95.Iapws95ParameterBlock()
m.fs.unit = Turbine(property_package=m.fs.properties)

m.fs.unit.inlet.flow_mol[0].fix(1000)
m.fs.unit.inlet.enth_mol[0].fix(iapws95.htpx(T=800*pyo.units.K, P=1e7*pyo.units.Pa))
m.fs.unit.inlet.pressure[0].fix(1e7)
m.fs.unit.deltaP.fix(-2e6)
m.fs.unit.efficiency_isentropic.fix(0.9)
