Abstract

The technology known as organic rankine cycle (ORC) is a dependable method for transforming heat into electricity, whether it is for use in renewable energy sources such as biomass, geothermal, and solar, or for improving industrial energy efficiency. The range of ORC systems spans from small-scale (a few kW) for home cogeneration to sizable multi-megawatt geothermal power facilities. Since the 1970s, technology has undergone significant progress, largely due to increased economic incentives and rising energy costs, despite a slow start initially. Tracking the evolution of the technology worldwide is challenging due to the wide variety of applications, manufacturers, and countries involved. Hence, the present research scrutinizes the ORC technology to evaluate this system from the energy and economic perspectives. Aspen HYSYS, and Aspen Capital Cost Estimator simulations were used for the process, thermodynamic, and financial evaluations, respectively. In this research, the ORC is evaluated using various organic working fluids, specifically seven different types of fluids. The power and heat flow of the expander in all scenarios are considered at 1200 kW and 1.200 Mw, respectively, to determine the most appropriate organic fluid. Organic fluid toluene, due to its highest boiling point among the investigated fluids, was able to generate the required production power using the lowest molar flow rate for both input and output to the expander, considering these values. The results showed that the organic fluid toluene is technically and economically superior to other fluids. However, cyclopentane performs slightly better in terms of energy consumption and carbon dioxide output. However, toluene is chosen over cyclopentane due to current safety concerns.

考虑技术、经济和能源分析,选择有机郎肯循环的工作液
无论是用于生物质能、地热能和太阳能等可再生能源,还是用于提高工业能效,被称为有机冉烷循环(ORC)的技术都是将热能转化为电能的可靠方法。ORC 系统的范围很广,从小规模(几千瓦)的家庭热电联产到大型的数兆瓦地热发电设施。自 20 世纪 70 年代以来,尽管起步缓慢,但主要由于经济激励措施的增加和能源成本的上升,该技术已经取得了长足的进步。由于涉及的应用、制造商和国家种类繁多,跟踪该技术在全球范围内的发展具有挑战性。因此,本研究对 ORC 技术进行了仔细研究,从能源和经济角度对该系统进行评估。Aspen HYSYS 和 Aspen Capital Cost Estimator 仿真分别用于工艺、热力学和财务评估。在这项研究中,使用各种有机工作流体,特别是七种不同类型的流体,对 ORC 进行了评估。在所有方案中,膨胀机的功率和热流量分别考虑为 1200 kW 和 1.200 Mw,以确定最合适的有机流体。有机流体甲苯的沸点在所研究的流体中最高,考虑到这些数值,有机流体甲苯能够以最低的摩尔流量为膨胀机输入和输出产生所需的生产功率。结果表明,有机流体甲苯在技术和经济上都优于其他流体。不过,环戊烷在能耗和二氧化碳产出方面略胜一筹。不过,出于目前的安全考虑,选择甲苯而不是环戊烷。
