This study presents an application of a new performance analysis criterion named as Effective Ecological Power Density (EFECPOD) to a Joule-Brayton cycle (JBC) turbine. The turbine performance is expressed a single value by the proposed criterion using effective efficiency, effective power, cycle temperature ratio and volume. NOx formation and turbine dimensions are considered by the cycle temperature ratio and turbine volume, respectively. The turbine volume is also related to production cost of the heat engine. Therefore, the proposed criterion is essential for multi purpose optimization. Furthermore, this criterion can be developed and applied to the other gas cycle and heat engines. Also, the influences of engine design parameters such as cycle temperature ratio, pressure ratio, turbine speed, and equivalence ratio on the EFECPOD have been examined based on Finite-Time Thermodynamics Modelling (FTTM). In order to obtain realistic results, temperature-dependent specific heats for working fluid have been used and heat transfer and exhaust output losses have been taken into consideration. The results presented could be an essential tool for JBC turbine designers.
