Study of potential application of alternative power cycles in colombia Estudio de la potencial aplicación de ciclos de potencia alternativos en Colombia

The energy cost and environmental problems such as greenhouse gas emissions have made efficient energy and renewable energy resources use a necessity for the care of the environment and for the economic and productive growth of the different sectors of a country’s economy. This has been achieved through policies that encourage the application of technologies that increase the processes efficiency and take advantage of the means available for generating power in different 1 Departamento de Matemáticas y Estadística, Universidad Francisco de Paula Santander, Norte de Santander, Cúcuta, Colombia, correo: mawencyvergel@ufps.edu.co Orcid: https://orcid.org/0000-0001-8285-2968 2 Facultad de Ingenierías, Universidad Francisco de Paula Santander, Cúcuta, Colombia.

RESUMEN
El costo de la energía y los problemas ambientales como las emisiones de gases de efecto invernadero han hecho que el uso eficiente de la energía y de los recursos energéticos renovables sea una necesidad para el cuidado del medio ambiente y para el crecimiento económico y productivo de los diferentes sectores de la economía de un país. Esto se ha logrado a través de políticas que incentiven la aplicación de tecnologías que aumenten la eficiencia de los procesos y aprovechen los medios disponibles para la generación de energía en los diferentes  total potential corresponding to heat at low temperatures, 60% in Steel industry with a total potential estimated of 2.9 GWTh (Lu, 2015

METHOD
In the energy use of renewable sources, these cycles have been widely used and studied.
Wolpert et al. (Wolpert & Riffat, 1996)  In Colombia, we have some laws and decrees that enhance the technologies application for alternative energy development.  The main feature of this family of cycles is the working fluid, and this mixture allows work with different conditions for several reasons.
One of them is because the composition of the mixture could be fixed (Ogriseck, 2009) that make this cycle more flexible, and in some case is necessary a separator that facilities a working range. Ammonia-water mixture has thermophysical properties like variable boiling temperature, which can thus be fitter to the falling temperature of heat source that results in a reduction entropy generation (Valdimarsson & Eliasson, 2003) and allow capture more of available potential work (Mlcak, 2002).
Cycles with these characteristics have been developed for several operational conditions.
We can find various Kalina Cycle System (KCS).  Comparative studies with the Rankine cycle showed a 10-20% improvement in thermal efficiency (Maloney & Robertson, 1953).
Following this, another study carried out shows that the cycle proposed by Goswami preserves the advantages of the Kalina cycle but eliminates the restrictions that the Kalina cycle presents (Feng, Goswami, & Sunil, 2000).

ORGANIC RANKINE CYCLE (ORC)
The Organic Rankine Cycle is the most common candidate for waste heat recovery and is    ). As can be seen in Figure 3, the greatest energy demand is destined for the transport sector and the energy sector, being here where the greatest losses are generated. The applicability potential of these alternative power cycles for growth in efficient energy use can be observed. What represents the different sectors of the country more international competitiveness. Colombia requires the use of technologies that propel it to be a more efficient and productive country, and these cycles represent a step to achieve it.
