Q1. What are the contributions in "Experimental and thermodynamic analysis of a bottoming organic rankine cycle (orc) of gasoline engine using swash-plate expander" ?

This paper deals with the experimental testing of an Organic Rankine Cycle ( ORC ) integrate in a 2 liter turbocharged gasoline engine using ethanol as working fluid. 

Future work will focus on the development of an accurate model of both the swash-plate expander and the ORC system in order to simulate steady and transient points and to be able to identify the influence of the operating parameters and predict the behavior of the system at critical operating points. Considering the capacity of improvement in expander efficiencies and thermal insulation of different elements of the facility, it can be concluded that the ethanol ORC provides an interesting field of study to consider in the coming years.
