Numerical Study On The Internal Irreversible Flow Loss of Single Screw Expanders [PDF]
Abstract As a type of positive displacement expander, single screw expander (SSEs) can be widely applied in the energy storage systems and waste heat recovery field. The irreversible losses (such as leakage, flow, heat transfer, intake and exhaust pressure loss…) have great influence on the expander performance.

Different Numerical Approaches for the Analysis of a Single Screw Expander
Abstract Positive displacement machines (e.g. scroll, twin screw, reciprocating, etc.) are proven to be suitable as expanders for organic Rankine cycle (ORC) applications, especially in the medium to low power range. However, in order to increase their performance, detailed simulation models are required to optimize the design and reduce the internal

Comparison between single and cascaded organic Rankine cycle systems accounting for the effects of expansion volume ratio on expander performance [PDF]
Compared to single-stage organic Rankine cycle (ORC) systems, cascaded ORC systems, in which a high-temperature topping cycle and low-temperature bottoming cycle are coupled together, could have advantages in terms of removing the potential for sub ...

Optimisation of power generation cycles using saturated liquid expansion to maximise heat recovery [PDF]
The use of two-phase screw expanders in power generation cycles can achieve an increase in the utilisation of available energy from a low-temperature heat source when compared with more conventional single-phase turbines. The efficiency of screw expander
