PowerBlade - Blade Compressor Concept Exploration for Power Generation Feasibility Study

英国10%-12%的电力用于压缩空气。在发电行业中，空气压缩机在许多方面都是严重依赖的，这对能源三难困境产生了影响。发电行业需要可靠、高效、低成本的压缩机技术，以(1)最大限度地减少发电作业本身的二氧化碳排放(2)避免浪费可出售的能源(3)有助于使可再生能源成为可行和可靠的解决方案。Lontra的创新和成熟的Blade Compressor®概念在废水处理中证明了与波瓣压缩机相比，效率提高了20%，可靠性更好。这个项目将探索新版本的叶片压缩机概念的技术和商业可行性，以满足发电需求，进一步提高能源效率和价格，并初步探索压缩空气储能。这将通过刀片式压缩机®概念的规模化设计、包括温度和压力限制在内的数学建模来实现。

10-12% of all power generated in the UK is used for compressed air. Air compressors are heavily relied upon within the Power Generation industry in many ways that impact on the energy trilemma. The Powergen industry requires reliable, efficient, low cost compressor technologies to (1) Minimise C02 emissions of the power generation operation itself (2) Avoid wasting energy that could be sold (3) Assist in making renewables a viable and reliable solution. LONTRA'S innovative and proven Blade Compressor® concept has demonstrated efficiency gains of >20% with better reliability compared to lobe compressors in wastewater treatment. This offers significant savings to the Powergen industry.This project will explore the technical and commercial feasibility of a new version of the Blade Compressor concept to address the needs in Power Generation further advancing energy efficiency & affordability, and initial exploration for compressed air energy storage. This will be achieved through a scaled design of the Blade Compressor® concept, mathematical modelling including temperature and pressure limits.
