Journal ArticleDOI

Low­grade heat conversion into power using organic Rankine cycles - A review of various applications

TL;DR: An organic Rankine cycle (ORC) machine is similar to a conventional steam cycle energy conversion system, but uses an organic fluid such as refrigerants and hydrocarbons instead of water as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fluid selection for a low-temperature solar organic Rankine cycle

TL;DR: In this paper, theoretical performances as well as thermodynamic and environmental properties of few fluids have been comparatively assessed for use in low-temperature solar organic Rankine cycle systems.
Journal ArticleDOI

Thermo-economic optimization of waste heat recovery Organic Rankine Cycles

TL;DR: In this paper, a sizing model of the ORC is proposed, capable of predicting the cycle performance with different working fluids and different components sizes, based on the thermodynamic and economic optimization of a small scale ORC in waste heat recovery application.
Journal ArticleDOI

Exergy analysis of micro-organic Rankine power cycles for a small scale solar driven reverse osmosis desalination system

TL;DR: In this article, an exergy analysis of micro-organic Rankine heat engines is performed to identify the most suitable engine for driving a small scale reverse osmosis desalination system.
Journal ArticleDOI

Heat resources and organic Rankine cycle machines

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present various Rankine cycle architectures for single fluids and other improved versions operating with ammonia/water mixture, and their potential for driving organic Rankine cycles are outlined.
