ORC Using Solar Energy: Organic Rankine Cycle based on experimental data, thermodynamic models and case studies - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

How to effectively utilize low and medium temperature energy is one of the solutions to solve the energy shortage and environmental pollution problems. Solar-thermal power-plants have enjoyed limited success in the energy market to date. The ability to better characterize the performance of existing solar-thermal technologies as well as investigate the potential of new technologies is a crucial step in developing more economically viable designs. Organic Rankine cycles have unique properties that are well suited to solar power Generation and also suitable to our country topography especially in remote areas. This book contributes to the knowledge and the characterization of small scale Organic Rankine Cycles (ORC). It is based on experimental data, thermodynamic models and case studies. The experimental studies include: A prototype of small-scale waste heat recovery ORC using an open-drive oil free scroll expander. Comparison of different working fluids and selecting the suitable one for the cycle.
