📄 Abstract(原文)

Main engine load varies continuously, whereas onboard carbon capture columns are installed with fixed capacities. For liquefied natural gas (LNG)-fueled ships, this mismatch between design and operation makes off-design robustness, rather than nominal-point performance, the governing sizing criterion. This study developed a variable-load design window for onboard monoethanolamine CO2 capture and evaluated a dual-loop organic Rankine cycle (ORC) as a secondary thermal integration option. A verified process model was applied to a 5 × 5 design–operating matrix (D50–D90/O50–O90). The mismatch was strongly asymmetric. When operating load did not exceed design load, capture rate remained near 90%; under overload, absorber treated only the design-point-equivalent exhaust-gas flow, causing capture performance to deteriorate rapidly. The mean CO2 avoided rate increased from 57.4% at D50 to 70.4% at D90, while absorber diameter increased from 3.23 to 4.06 m. D70 emerged as the balanced option for low- to medium-load services, D80 marked the transition before full robustness, and D90 was robustness-oriented for frequent high-load operation. The ORC recovered 104–185 kW net power and supplied 231–410 kW LNG-side heating. Results support capacity selection before ORC application; CO2 liquefaction and storage, voyage-weighted validation, and shipboard ORC feasibility remain outside the present scope.
