  "Modeling and simulation of a Brayton cycle Cogeneration plant using Biomass as a source"
  Combined heat and power or cogeneration is the simultaneous generation of usable heat and power in a single process which offers significantly higher fuel efficiency compared with conventional centralized ways of generating electricity from fossil fuel. CHP thus can make a significant contribution to sustainable energy goals, bringing environmental, economic and social and energy security benefits, especially in countries and regions with colder climates. CHP plants are usually located in within heavy industrial plants, such as oil refineries, where the heat produced during the generation of electricity can be put to good use within manufacturing. There is a need for transition from petroleum based energy systems to one based on renewable resource to decrease reliance on depleting reserves of fossil fuels and to mitigate climate change. This MTP research work consists of comparing existing cogeneration systems which are working on biomass as an energy source by modeling & simulating the same with the performance of conventional fuel. A more efficient plant comparing thermal and exergo- economic aspects is to be modeled. Four different types of biomasses are analyzed for same input conditions and also economic analysis is carried for optimizing its performance compared to black coal.

  "Modeling and simulation of a Combined Cycle"
  Combined heat and power (CHP) plant generate usable heat and power in a single process simultaneously. The CHP has higher fuel efficiency compared to conventional ways of generating electricity since the waste heat is used for doing useful work. Therefore CHP can make a significant contribution to sustainable energy goals, bringing environmental, economic and social and energy security benefits, especially in countries and regions with colder climate. CHP plants are generally located in heavy industries like oil refineries, where heat is the essential requirement along with electricity. The present work is to model a combined cogeneration system and analyze the performance of the system on the basis of performance parameters such as thermal efficiency, exergetic efficiency, TUER, PHR, PD etc, and find the optimum operating conditions.
