Abstract

An expander of an organic Rankine cycle is an essential component that significantly influences its entire performance and cycle efficiency. The inlet pressure and temperature of the expander used for the organic Rankine cycle are limited by the expander's mechanical properties and the characteristics of the working fluid. The organic Rankine cycle's output, heat absorption, and efficiency are altered by the inlet pressure and temperature of the expander. In this study, a theoretical comparative analysis was conducted on an organic Rankine cycle's performance changes, which are dependent on the inlet condition of the expander. The working fluid is an R134a refrigerant, and the expander is a positive-displacement type.

유기랭킨사이클에서 팽창기는 전체 성능과 사이클 효율에 큰 영향을 미치는 중요 부품이다. 유기랭킨사이클에 적용되는 팽창기는 입구 압력과 온도가 팽창기 기계적 특성이나 작동유체 특성 등에 의해 제한받게 되는데, 유기랭킨사이클은 팽창기 입구압력과 온도에 따라 사이클 출력, 흡수 열량 및 효율 등이 변화하게 된다. 본 연구에서는 용적형 팽창기가 적용되는 작동유체 냉매 R134a인 유기랭킨사이클의 성능이 팽창기 입구조건에 따라 유기랭킨사이클의 성능이 어떻게 변화하는지 이론적으로 비교 분석을 수행하였다.
