Working Fluid Selection for an Organic Rankine Cycle for Waste Heat Recovery under Different Heat Source Temperatures

Abstract:

Optimum working conditions of 11 working fluids under different heat source temperatures in an organic Rankine cycle were systematically investigated. Cycle efficiency of each fluid was compared at their optimal operating conditions were then analyzed. R141b appears to be the best choice when the heat source temperature is around 200oC. Heptane is suggested the suitable working fluids for the ORC system when the heat source is 300oC.
