Reducing Energy Costs for Gas Preheating through Gas-Dynamic Stratification in the Leontiev Tube by Kovalnogov V.N., Rudnik R.S., Matveev A.F.

“…The most significant results include the superior performance of the bell-shaped nozzle design over the annular one: modelling showed a 60 K temperature dif-ference between supersonic and subsonic flows (110.5% higher than the baseline), a 20–25 K increase in hot flow temperature at the outlet, stable flow without pressure surges, and effective gas heating prior to throttling using pipeline pressure drops, preventing condensation and reduc-ing costs. The significance of these results lies in demonstrating the superiority of machine-free energy separation technologies, such as gas-dynamic stratification in the Leontiev tube with a bell-shaped nozzle, over traditional energy-intensive heating methods, leading to more rational resource utilization and reduced environmental impact under strict energy efficiency and ecolog-ical standards.…”
