Modular high-temperature gas-cooled reactor (MHTGR) has distinct advantages in the sense of the inherent safety, economy property, high electricity efficiency, potential usage for hydrogen production, and etc. Chinese design of MHTGR, named as High Temperature Gas-Cooled Reactor-Pebble bed Module (HTR-PM), based on the technology and experiences of the HTR-10, is under the standard design phase...

Optimal Heat Source Temperature For Supercritical Organic Rankine Cycle

Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) enables power generation from lowto medium temperature heat sources. In an ORC, the organic medium shows different performances for different heat source temperatures. For a range of heat source temperatures, one temperature can be always identified corresponding to the best thermal match between the heat transfer fluid and working fluid. This temperature is defined ...
