    W prezentowanej pracy zosta艂a przedstawiona technologia separacji dwutlenku w臋gla ze spalin kot艂owych wykorzystuj膮ca proces adsorpcji bazuj膮cy na zdolno艣ci sorbentu do selektywnego poch艂aniania sk艂adnik贸w mieszanin gazowych. Technologia ta, zwana postcombustion, jest po艂膮czeniem metody adsorpcji zmiennoci艣nieniowej i zmiennotemperaturowej (metoda PTSA) i stanowi elastyczn膮 technik臋, mog膮c膮 znale藕膰 zastosowanie w istniej膮cych ju偶 blokach energetycznych. Jednostka PTSA do wychwytu CO2 zosta艂a opracowana jako model matematyczny przy wykorzystaniu oprogramowania IPSE-pro firmy SimTech, kt贸ry to model umo偶liwi艂 przeprowadzenie symulacji numerycznych. Celem wykonanych oblicze艅 symulacyjnych by艂o okre艣lenie warunk贸w pracy uk艂adu PTSA, w szczeg贸lno艣ci okre艣lono wp艂yw temperatury i ci艣nienia spalin na proces adsorpcji, wp艂yw ci艣nienia desorpcji na zapotrzebowanie na sorbent, a tak偶e wp艂yw parametr贸w czynnika grzejnego na proces desorpcji oraz ustalono optymalne parametry pracy uk艂adu separacji.This paper presents one of the post-combustion methods of capturing carbon dioxide. The basics of adsorption process are shown, and the adsorption model PTSA is presented. The PTSA model is a combination of two different methods of separation: Pressure Swing Adsorption (PSA) and Temperature Swing Adsorption (TSA). The standard library from IPSE-pro software does not include a model for the separation unit, therefore is why a mathematical model was developed and imported to the IPSE-pro. Carried out simulations are designed to analyze the work conditions of the PTSA. This study focuses on three effects: the temperature and gas pressure effect on the process of adsorption, desorption pressure effect on the demand for sorbent and the parameters of a heating medium effect on the desorption process. Justified values of parameters of the separation units are defined. Experimental work is conducted by using synthetic 5A zeolite. The adsorption process in the PTSA system is operated with temperature and pressure corresponding to the temperature and pressure of the flue gas, which is introduced to capture units. In the first stage of the simulation, tests are conducted. The tests are to determine the parameters of flue gas, which allows reducing requirements on the sorbent and reducing the energy required to regenerate the sorbent. After the adsorption process, sorbent along with adsorbed CO2 is subjected to the regeneration process, in which carbon dioxide is released from the surface and pores of the sorbent. Regeneration of the sorbent allows restoring the original sorption properties of the sorbent and thus it can be used in subsequent cycles. The temperature, in which the desorption process takes place has a significant meaning and the heat source can be derived from a steam turbine. The next stage of this study is to examine the effect of pressure and temperature of the heating steam on the demand for the sorbent and desorption heat. Extraction steam is used to carry out the regeneration of sorbent

    The paper deals with heat transfer processes taking place in the near flow region of axisymmetric free jet in the presence of coherent motion stimulated by acoustic wave. The parameters selected for qualitative and quantitative analysis were the temperature variance and coherent as well as oscillatory heat fluxes. Temperature variance was treated as a measure of intensity of heat transport while heat fluxes described spatial characteristics of the heat transfer processes. Analysis of transport equations of the above quantities should explain the physics of heat transfer realised in the presence of coherent structures.Struktury koherentne i transport wariancji temperatury oraz oscylacyjnych strumieni ciep艂a w strudze ko艂owej. W pracy przedstawiono wyniki eksperymentalnej analizy proces贸w transportu ciep艂a zachodz膮cych w pocz膮tkowym obszarze osiowosymetrycznej strugi swobodnej w obecno艣ci struktur koherentnych stymulowanych polem akustycznym. Przyj臋to, 偶e parametrami, przy pomocy kt贸rych mo偶na w spos贸b jako艣ciowy i ilo艣ciowy opisa膰 zachodz膮ce w przep艂ywie procesy s膮 wariancja temperatury i oscylacyjne strumienie ciep艂a. Wariancja temperatury mo偶e by膰 bowiem traktowana jako miara intensywno艣ci transportu ciep艂a, podczas gdy strumienie ciep艂a opisuj膮 jego przemieszczanie si臋 w obszarze przep艂ywu. Uzyskane na drodze eksperymentalnej przestrzenne rozk艂ady obu wielko艣ci fizycznych, uzupe艂nione fizykaln膮 analiz膮 ich r贸wna艅 transportu, pozwoli艂y na rozpoznanie proces贸w przemieszczania si臋 ciep艂a w przep艂ywie w obecno艣ci struktur koherentnych
