Pressurized oxy-coal combustion is one method that may provide a means of boosting the cycle efficiency and reducing pollutant emission from coal plants. Two pressurized oxy-coal combustion cycles are analyzed in this study. The ThermoEnergy Integrated Power System (TIPS) coal power cycle, which operates at a pressure of 8 MPa, and the ENEL cycle, which operates at a pressure of 1MPa. For this study both cycles are modeled using ASPEN Plus, and the performance of the different components and efficiencies of both systems analyzed. The gross input power to the system is via a coal slurry at a power rating of 550MW. The flue gases are recycled in each configuration at a rate of 25, 50, and 75% by mass. For both cycles the highest calculated efficiency occurs at a recirculation rate of 75%. At this condition, the efficiency of the cycles are 38% and 34% for the ENEL and TIPS cycles, respectively. It is determined that for these cycles that the mass flow rate of the flue gas impact the cycle efficiency more than the combustor temperature due to enhanced heat transfer throughout the system.
