About Organic Rankine Cycles:
Normally water is used as working fluid in the Rankine cycle but when the water is replaced by an organic fluid, then the cycle is called an Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC). The Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) applies the principle of the steam Rankine cycle, but uses organic working fluids with low boiling points to recover heat from lower temperature heat sources.
Most of the organic fluids are so called dry fluids. These dry fluids have the advantage that they remain superheated after expansion, so condensation of the fluid in the turbine can be avoided. Some commonly used fluids are pentane, propane, toluene, ammonia and some coolants.
Other benefits of using AxCYCLE for Organic Rankine Cycles:
- -AxCYCLE is integrated in the design process
- -Input of mandatory data to get the turbomachinery elements’ boundary conditions as cycle results almost instantaneously
- -Generate automated, printer-friendly reports
- -Results can be saved into AxSTREAM for design purposes
- -Compressor pressure raise at design point, fuel combustion lower heat, turbine rotational speed, can be specified
- -Fuel lower heating value
