Hi all!
I'm very new of DWSIM and I find it great. I managed to create some steady state simulation of a CO2 energy storage system but I'm now stucking with the dynamic model.
I manage to run a dynamic simulation and the vessel pressure is actually increasing, and so does the pressure of the upstream flow, but the compressor outlet pressure is not!
My target is to calculate the energy needed to fill the vessel from pressure A to pressure B. How to do that?
Hi, the dynamic mode for the compressor is limited and very simple, it doesn't work in this way that you want.
Ok thanks...so just to know what can I use the dynamic model of the compressor for?
Vito,
you can create a simple python script coupling the pressure increase in the vessel through the EOS and the power absorbed by the compressor and then integrate in discrete times to find the energy required.
Here DWSIM can be of help in getting the thermodynamic properties and in the calculation of compressor power.
Hope it helps.
