Abstract

In this study, an organic Rankine cycle(ORC) for gas engine waste heat recovery for industry has been constructed and a performance analysis test has been carried out. Shell & tube style heat exchanger has been equipped on an engine exhaust manifold in order to absorb heat of engine exhaust gas into the working fluid(refrigerant R134a). Under 60 kW of engine power output, about 63 kW of engine exhaust gas heat was discharged and the proportion of heat recovered was 68~73% while 43~46 kW of heat was absorbed into working fluid. Consequently rated power output of ORC was 4.6 kW while the ratio of rated power output to engine exhaust gas heat was 7.3%.

본 연구에서는 산업용 가스 엔진의 배기 폐열을 회수하여 발전하는 유기랭킨사이클을 구성하고 시스템 성능 분석 실험을 수행하였다. 엔진 배기가스 열을 작동유체(냉매 R134a)에 흡수시키기 위해 Shell & Tube 방식 열교환기를 엔진 배기 매니폴드 후단에 장착하였다. 엔진출력 60 kW인 조건에서 약 63 kW의 배기가스 열을 배출하였으며, 열교환기를 통해 작동유체에 흡수된 열량은 43~46 kW로서 배기가스 열회수율은 68~73%, 최대출력은 4.6 kW로서 배기가스 열량에 대한 최대출력의 비는 7.3%을 나타내었다.
