Owing to their unique thermophysical properties, supercritical fluids are used in emerging power generation cycles such as supercritical carbon dioxide Brayton cycles with carbon capture and storage capabilities and offer higher efficiency, lower emissions, reduced cycle footprint, and capital costs compared to water steam power generation cycles. Our research group develops high-fidelity computational models to understand the thermal and hydraulic behavior and supercritical oxy-fuel combustion in direct-fired supercritical carbon dioxide power generation cycles that can be coupled with renewable energy resources. In addition, supercritical carbon dioxide is extensively used for nanoparticle production with applications ranging from advanced materials to pharmaceutical and food industries.
