The Rankine cycle is a thermodynamic cycle widely used by power plants to convert water into steam, then expanding that steam through a turbine to produce mechanical work.

What is the organic Rankine cycle?
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 Rankine cycle?
The Rankine cycle is the fundamental operating cycle used by all power plants today. It is a cycle in which all the processes to produce work are reversible and the operating fluid undergoes a continuous cycle of evaporation & condensation.
What is the organic Rankine cycle in a refinery?
The organic Rankine cycle (ORC) is one of the feasible technologies to recover waste heat from low to medium temperature heat sources and to generate electricity.
What are the benefits of organic Rankine cycle?
The advantages of the ORC system are that it performs well under partial load and, because of the low working pressures and temperatures, it is not subject to the regulations of steam equipment. ORC units are suitable for biomass CHP plants with an electrical output as small as 200 kW.
