An Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) system is a closed thermodynamic cycle used for power production from low to medium-high temperature heat sources ranging from 80 to 400°C and for small-medium applications at any temperature level.

What is the organic Rankine cycle system?
Organic Rankine Cycles (ORC) are systems that can effectively recover low-grade heat for electric power generation. For ORC to be a viable technology, it should operate safely and efficiently under variable operating conditions due to exogenous and operating specifications changes.
What is the difference between SRC and ORC?
... The ORC is similar to the conventional SRC but it uses an organic fluid (such as Freon) instead of water (steam) as a working fluid.
What are organic fluids for Rankine cycle?
Working fluid | Type | Critical Properties |
Empty Cell | Empty Cell | Boiling Point °C |
Benzene | Dry | 80.06 |
Methanol | Wet | 64.54 |
Ethanol | Wet | 78.42 |
How much does organic Rankine cycle cost?
In our case study, the expected generated electric power is 1,750 kW or equivalently, 15,000,000 kWh of electrical energy annually. Financial analysis shows that the ORC system, including the cost of the unit plus the costs of installation and integration into the process, will cost approximately 4.8 Million USD.
