Performance and design optimization of a low-cost solar organic Rankine cycle for remote power generation
Recent interest in small-scale solar thermal combined heat and power (CHP) power systems has coincided with demand growth for distributed electricity supplies in areas poorly served by centralized power stations. One potential technical approach to meeting this demand is the parabolic trough solar thermal collector coupled with an organic Rankine cycle (ORC) heat engine. The paper describes the...
متن کاملPreliminary Design and Simulation of a Turbo Expander for Small Rated Power Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC)
Nowadays, the Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) system, which operates with organic fluids, is one of the leading technologies for “waste energy recovery”. It works as a conventional Rankine Cycle but, as mentioned, instead of steam/water, an organic fluid is used. This change allows it to convert low temperature heat into electric energy where required. Large numbers of studies have been carried out...
متن کاملAdaptive PI Control of an Organic Rankine Cycle Power Plant
In this paper a PI based adaptive control system is developed to control an organic Rankine cycle power plant. In particular, the control of the turbine speed during the transient between the normal operation mode of the system (connected to the grid) and the islandmode (connected to a stand-alone load) is of main concern. A control algorithm suitable for the implementation on a programmable lo...
متن کاملExperimental and Thermoeconomic Analysis of Small-Scale Solar Organic Rankine Cycle (SORC) System
A small-scale solar organic Rankine cycle (ORC) is a promising renewable energy-driven power generation technology that can be used in the rural areas of developing countries. A prototype was developed and tested for its performance characteristics under a range of solar source temperatures. The solar ORC system power output was calculated based on the thermal and solar collector efficiency. Th...
متن کاملModeling and simulation of small-scale Organic Rankine Cycle
The Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) heat engine constitutes a very promising technology to recover waste heat (for instance from industry or from internal combustion engines) but also to exploit renewable energy sources (such as solar, biomass or geothermal energy). This seminar will emphasize how modeling and simulation tools could be used during the design stage of an ORC system in order to best ...
