Improving the semi-empirical modelling of a single-screw expander for small organic Rankine cycles
Applied Energy, 2017 Abstract The common semi-empirical modelling adopted for positive-displacement rotary expanders is revised in this paper. Paying particular attention to the leakage flow rates, the mechanical losses at the shaft and the ambient heat losses by the proposal of a more physically sound modelling, this paper aims at improving the performance simulation of
