Abstract

Mass and energy balances are presented for the whole Mark-16 thermochemical cycle using thermodynamical information. The practical restrictions to the resulting good prospects are indicated. The impact of technical constraints is assessed taking the HI step as an example. Adding the energy consumption of the product separation units related to the HI-decomposition step to the energy consumption under equilibrium conditions for the chemical reaction steps shows a thermal efficiency of 0.31 for the Mark-16 cycle.
