Abstract Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC)-based systems are being extensively investigated
for heat-to-electric power conversion from various sources, such as biomass, waste heat …

Internal combustion engines (ICEs) are the major consumers of crude oil, and thus
improvements in the fuel consumption performance of ICEs would be significant for global …

Energy conversion efficiency is one of the most important features of power systems as it
greatly influences the economic balance. The efficiency can be increased in many ways …

The purpose of this work is to experimentally evaluate the effect on fuel efficiency of a small
scale organic Rankine cycle (ORC) as a waste heat recovery system (WHRS) in a heavy …

The strive towards ever increasing automotive engine efficiencies for both diesel and
gasoline engines has in recent years been forced by ever-stringent emissions regulations …

This paper outlines a novel meanline off-design model to predict the performance
characteristics of a radial inflow turbine that operates with ideal and real working fluids …

The present study describes the development of a preliminary design of a rotor for a radial
turbine operating in an organic Rankine cycle. An optimization algorithm is applied to the …

Featured Application A geothermal integrated energy system for combined heat and power
production in a commercial centre is proposed. The suggested apparatus can be adopted …

This paper presents an analysis of the application of an Organic Rankine cycle (ORC) for
power generation of a Brazilian FPSO (Floating Product Storage Offload). The peculiarity of …

Due to the various ORC applications, it is not expedient to design and build one standard
turbogenerator. Therefore, authors developed a flexible “micro-turbine-generator …
