TY - BOOK ID - 145417774 TI - Organic Rankine Cycles for Waste Heat Recovery : Analysis and Applications PY - 2020 PB - London, England : IntechOpen, DB - UniCat KW - Thermodynamic cycles. UR - https://www.unicat.be/uniCat?func=search&query=sysid:145417774 AB - This book comprises five chapters on developed research activities on organic Rankine cycles. The first section aims to provide researchers with proper modelling (Chapter 1) and experimental (Chapter 2) tools to calculate and empirically validate thermophysical properties of ORC working fluids. The second section introduces some theoretical and experimental studies of organic Rankine cycles for waste heat recovery applications: a review of different supercritical ORC (Chapter 3), ORC for waste heat recovery from fossil-fired power plants (Chapter 4), the experimental detailed characterization of a small-scale ORC of 3 kW operating with either pure fluids or mixtures (Chapter 5).
