Thermodynamic analysis of the partially evaporating trilateral cycle [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The potential of Organic Rankine Cycles (ORC) to recover low grade waste heat is well known. The high heat recovery potential is partially attributed to a good match of the temperature profiles between working fluid and waste heat stream in the ...

Thermal efficiency investigation for organic Rankine cycle and trilateral flash cycle using hydrofluoroether working fluids

open access: yesResults in Engineering
The thermal efficiency of the organic Rankine cycle (ORC) is higher than the trilateral flash cycle (TFC) using normal dry working fluids. On the contrary, the thermal efficiency of TFC outperforms the thermal efficiency of ORC by using super dry working

Preliminary Design and Simulation of a Turbo Expander for Small Rated Power Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC)

open access: yes, 2014
Nowadays, the Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) system, which operates with organic fluids, is one of the leading technologies for “waste energy recovery”. It works as a conventional Rankine Cycle but, as mentioned, instead of steam/water, an organic fluid is ...

Cost Effective Waste Heat Organic Rankine Cycle Applications and Systems Designs

open access: yes, 1980
Conceptually, the Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) power cycle has been well known to the engineering community for many years. Despite the rapid escalation of energy costs during the past decade, and a concerted, though somewhat belated, effort towards ...

Numerical CFD simulations on a small-scale ORC expander using a customized grid generation methodology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Positive displacement machines are the most suitable devices for small-scale waste heat to power conversion units based on an Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) due to their capabilities of handling small mass flow rates and high pressure ratios.
