Power Generation
In this section, you can find power generation examples in multiple Simscape Fluids domains.
Featured Examples
Brayton Cycle (Gas Turbine)
Models a gas turbine auxiliary power unit (APU) based on the Brayton Cycle. The power input to the system is represented by heat injection into the combustor; actual combustion chemistry is not modeled. A single shaft connects the compressor and the turbine so that the power from the turbine drives the compressor. The APU is a free turbine that further expands the exhaust stream to produce output power.
Liquid Air Energy Storage System
Models a grid-scale energy storage system based on cryogenic liquid air. When there is excess power, the system liquefies ambient air based on a variation of the Claude cycle. The cold liquid air is stored in a low-pressure insulated tank until needed. When there is high power demand, the system expands the stored liquid air to produce power based on the Rankine cycle.
PEM Fuel Cell System with a Custom Library
Model a proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cell stack with a custom library and custom Simscape domain. The custom library includes blocks that are tailored to fuel cell modeling. The custom domain models a 4-species gas mixture that contains nitrogen (N2), oxygen (O2), hydrogen (H2), and water vapor (H2O).
Photovoltaic Thermal (PV/T) Hybrid Solar Panel
Model the cogeneration of electrical power and heat using a hybrid PV/T solar panel. The generated heat is transferred to water for household consumption.
