Guidance page for practical work 5: OTEC closed and open cycle (setting out)

Note

This document is an excerpt from the guidance page with complete results, which is reserved for teachers. For this reason, the numbering of figures is flawed.

The project objective is to study OTEC cycles Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion designed to generate electricity in warm tropical waters using the temperature difference between water at the surface and in depth.

Two main types of cycles are used: closed cycles and open cycles, the latter providing pure water.
