Thermodynamic Analysis of Cascaded Organic Rankine Cycle for Optimizing Thermal EfficiencyBy Ravi Kumar Sangewar
Abstract: AbstractPower cycles converting medium temperature heat (~300°C) into electricity using working fluids like toluene, benzene etc. result in vacuum on condenser side operating near ambient temperatures. To overcome this, two stage cascaded power cycle is proposed with toluene in the top cycle and R- 245fa as a bottom cycle working fluid. In this scheme, condensation heat of toluene is used as a heat source for R- 245fa. A realistic analysis …

Analysis of a Medium Temperature Organic Rankine Cycle for Various Mixtures of Organic FluidsBy Ravi Kumar Sangewar
Abstract: AbstractA blend of 70% alkane and 30% carbon dioxide (molar composition) possess low global warming potential, zero ozone depletion potential and are non-flammable. These mixtures are reported to be the potential working fluids for power generation in a transcritical condensing cycle. In this paper, detailed thermodynamic analysis is performed for the medium temperature organic Rankine cycle (ORC) with the mixtures of CO2 with propane or isobutene or isopentane. Among all …
