A binary-cycle geothermal plant employs a closed-loop heat exchange system in which the heat of geothermal fluid(primary fluid) is transferred to a lower-boiling heat transfer fluid(secondary fluid) that is thereby vaporized and used to drive a turbine or generator set. In other words, a binary cycle uses a secondary heat transfer fluid instead of steam in the power generation equipment. 4, record 1, English, - binary%20cycle%20geothermal%20power%20plant

The system is the part of the physical world that is the object of a thermodynamic calculation. It may be a fixed amount of material inside a tank, a gas compressor with the associated inlet and outlet streams, or an entire chemical plant. Once the system is defined, anything that lies outside the system boundaries belongs to the surroundings. Together system and surroundings constitute the universe. A system can interact with its surroundings by exchanging mass, heat, and work. It is possible to construct the system in such way that some exchanges are allowed while others are not.... If it can exchange heat with the surroundings it is called "diathermal, "otherwise it is called "adiabatic. " 2, record 3, English, - diathermal

On appelle «adiabatique» un développement dans lequel un paramètre varie lentement, alors que le système est soumis à des variations rapides (en général des oscillations). Cette dénomination provient de la thermodynamique : une transformation est adiabatique lorsqu'elle s'effectue suffisamment lentement pour qu'on puisse négliger les phénomènes irréversibles de friction visqueuse proportionnelle à la vitesse de transformation. Malgré leur apparente simplicité, ces théories adiabatiques sont subtiles et profondes : il suffit de songer au lien qui existe entre elles et des problèmes tels que : stabilité à long terme du système solaire, origine microscopique du second principe de la thermodynamique, limite classique de la mécanique quantique [...] 4, record 4, French, - processus%20adiabatique

Several [internal cooling] systems have been developed that incorporate three basic approaches : liquified gas, super-cold air with water vapor, and air exchange methods. With the liquified gas system, immediately after the parison has been expanded, liquid carbon dioxide or nitrogen is atomized through a nozzle in the blow pin into the interior of the bottle. The liquid quickly vaporizes, removing heat, and exhausts at the end of the cycle. In practice, this method has improved production rates by 25 to 35%. A disadvantage is the cost of the liquified gas. If its consumption is not precisely controlled, the total cost savings becomes minimal. 1, record 8, English, - liquified%20gas%20system

Après soufflage à l'air, on injecte du CO2 qui, sous forme liquéfiée sous 20 bar à une température de -20 °C, a un pouvoir réfrigérant de 314 kJ/kg (entre -20 et 0 °C). De plus, l'enthalpie de vaporisation de CO2 élevée (289 kJ/kg) favorise le refroidissement de la paroi interne des corps creux. On peut atteindre une cadence augmentée de 40% à condition, bien entendu, que la capacité d'extrusion en amont le permette.
