Development of a Low Temperature Geothermal Organic Rankine Cycle Standard
Low temperature geothermal systems are an abundant energy resource in New Zealand with over 260 sites with a resource temperature of 150°C and lower. The Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) is the standard process for low temperature energy conversion with commercial ORCs utilizing temperatures as low as 90°C, with one site at Chena, Alaska (discussed below) utilizing temperatures as low as 74°C. The a...
متن کاملOff-Design Performances of Subcritical and Supercritical Organic Rankine Cycles in Geothermal Power Systems under an Optimal Control Strategy
The conditions of heat source and heat sink in a geothermal ORC system may frequently vary due to variations in geological conditions, ambient temperature and actual operation. In this study, an off-design performance prediction model for geothermal ORC systems is developed according to special designs of critical components, and an optimal control strategy which regards the turbine guide vane ...
متن کاملBoiler Design Procedure Geothermal Boiler Design Procedure
A concept of "Fractal Fracture Mechanics" for HDR .(Hot Dry Rock) geothermal reservoir design has been developed as an extension of conventional rock fracture mechanics. It is suggested that this concept is successfully applicable to characterize and model subsurface fracture network in HDR geothermal reservoir. Furthermore, this modeling procedure makes it possible to evaluate the thermal ener...
متن کاملSimultaneous optimal design of multi-stage organic Rankine cycles and working fluid mixtures for low-temperature heat sources
Energy recovery is a process strategy seeking to improve process efficiency through the capture, recycle and deployment of normally neglected low energy content sources or streams. By proper optimal process design, such low-temperature energy sources can be a feasible and economical manner of approaching the energy recovery issue. In particular, when Rankine cycles with mixtures as working flui...
متن کاملPerformance 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...
