o Supercritical CO 2 cycle demonstrates some advantages<br />
<strong>in</strong> comparison to He cycle<br />
- higher cycle efficiency (Y. Kato, 2003),<br />
- better turbomach<strong>in</strong>ery (Y. Muto, 2003),<br />
- power generation cost is expected to be smaller.<br />
o High efficiency recuperator is a crucial component <strong>of</strong><br />
supercritical CO 2 cycle. The targeted recuperator<br />
effectiveness is as high as 95%.<br />
o PCHE is a promis<strong>in</strong>g heat exchanger because it<br />
- is able to withstand the pressure up to 50 MPa and the temperature up<br />
to 700 o C (reliability ),<br />
- has a high compactness and high efficiency (cost reduction).<br />
