Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) power systems are increasingly of interest for cost-effective sustainable energy generation, with applications such as cogeneration from biomass, electricity generation from geothermal reservoirs and concentrating solar power installations, waste heat recovery, internal combustion engines and medium- and low-temperature industrial processes. With thousands of ORC power systems already in operation and the market growing at a fast pace, this is an active and engaging area of scientific research and technical development. Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) Power Systems: Technologies and Applications, Second Edition, provides a complete overview of ORC technology, including fundamentals, numerical modelling, plant technology, and applications. The book begins by introducing ORC power systems and their modelling, before a section focusing on ORC plant components, and finally in-depth chapters highlighting specific fields of application. This new edition is fully revised and updated to include new chapters on ORC market development, automotive on-board waste heat recovery, energy storage with ORC, and other applications such as ocean thermal energy conversion (OTEC) and solar pond technology. This is an essential resource for all those looking to increase their understanding of ORC power systems, including students, researchers, faculty, R&D professionals, engineers, managers, and policy makers. - Offers thorough coverage of ORC power systems, modelling, optimization, and plant components - Examines a range of sustainable applications, including geothermal, biomass, solar thermal, waste heat recovery, and more - Fully revised and expanded to include market information and the latest technological developments
