Özet:

 

For engineering applications related to techniques that optimize power plants or thermal systems, optimization techniques are very important. Power plants with wasted  geothermal resources and inefficient organic Rankine cycle  ORC  attract the attention  of researchers, engineers and decision-makers. In this study, the pressure and mass flow  rates on turbine lines are optimized to maximize exergy efficiency in a binary ORC geothermal power plant  GPP . With this aim, initially data collected from a real operating  GPP are used to simulate the system. Then an artificial bee colony  ABC  algorithm is  developed for this model. The results showed that, the total exergy efficiency of the system  was 35.25% while its value increased with the ABC optimization in the maximum possible  exergy efficiency of 38.45%. Optimizing the turbine lines in the system ensured improvement rate of 4-6% for the turbines. As a result, the thermodynamic performance of the  system is estimated at the same moment and with reasonable accuracy, it can be ensured  that the physical process used for improvements is better understood.
