Definitions

  • the invention relates generally to organic rankine cycle (ORC) systems, and more particularly to an economical system and method for the same.
  • DE 199 14 287 A1 discloses structured bodies positioned inside a pressure tube which are in heat-conducting connection with one another and with the pressure tube wall.
  • GB 983 620 A discloses a pressure steam generator for enhancing heat transfer and US 6 158 221 A discloses a waste heat recovery system. In both documents heat transfer tubes are described with internal and external fins.
  • rankine cycle systems have been used to capture the so called "waste heat", that was otherwise being lost to the atmosphere and, as such, was indirectly detrimental to the environment by requiring more fuel for power production than necessary.
  • ORC systems have been deployed as retrofits for small- and medium-scale gas turbines, to capture from the hot gas stream desirable power output.
  • a working fluid used in such cycles is typically a hydrocarbon at about atmospheric pressure.
  • the working fluid may degrade beyond a critical temperature, such as, but not limited to, 500 deg C.
  • the temperature of the exhaust is comparable to such high temperatures and hence, there is a reasonable probability of degradation of the working fluid due to direct exposure to the hot gas from the exhaust.
  • an intermediate thermal fluid system is generally used to convey heat from the exhaust to an organic Rankine cycle boiler.
  • the fluid is oil.
  • the intermediate fluid thermal represents up to about one-quarter of the cost of the complete ORC.
  • the intermediate fluid system and heat exchangers require a higher temperature difference resulting in increase in size and lowering overall efficiency.
  • an ORC system configured to limit temperature of a working fluid below a threshold temperature.
  • the ORC system includes a heat source configured to provide waste heat fluid.
  • the ORC system also includes a heat exchanger coupled to the heat source, wherein the heat exchanger includes multiple external and internal enhancement features.
  • the external enhancement features are configured to reduce a first heat transfer coefficient between the working fluid and the waste heat fluid from the heat source, external to the heat exchanger.
  • the internal enhancement features are configured to increase a second heat transfer coefficient between the working fluid and the waste heat fluid from a heat source, internal to the heat exchanger.
  • a method for providing an ORC system to limit temperature of a working fluid below a threshold temperature includes providing a heat source configured to convey waste heat fluid.
  • the method also includes providing a heat exchanger coupled to the heat source, wherein the heat exchanger includes multiple external and internal enhancement features.
  • the external enhancement features are configured to reduce a first heat transfer coefficient between the working fluid and the waste heat fluid from the heat source, external to the heat exchanger.
  • the internal enhancement features are configured to increase a second heat transfer coefficient between the working fluid and the waste heat fluid from a heat source, internal to the heat exchanger.
  • an ORC system configured to limit temperature of a working fluid below a threshold temperature.
  • the ORC system includes a heat source configured to provide waste heat fluid.
  • the ORC system includes a heat exhanger coupled to the heat source.
  • the heat exchanger includes an evaporator configured to receive the waste heat fluid from the heat source and vaporize the working fluid, the evaporator further configured to allow heat exchange between the waste heat fluid and the vaporized working fluid.
  • the heat exchanger also includes a superheater configured to receive the waste heat fluid from the evaporator, the waste heat fluid being at a relatively lower temperature due to the heat exchange and allow contact with the working fluid at a highest temperature.
  • the heat exhanger further includes a preheater configured to receive the waste heat fluid from the superheater and allow contact with the working fluid in a liquid state, wherein the evaporator, the superheater, and the preheater include multiple external or internal enhancement features.
  • the external enhancement features are configured to reduce a first heat transfer coefficient between the working fluid and the waste heat fluid from the heat source, external to the heat exchanger.
  • the internal enhancement features are configured to increase a second heat transfer coefficient between the working fluid and the waste heat fluid from a heat source, internal to the heat exchanger.
  • embodiments of the invention include an organic rankine cycle (ORC) system and method to limit the temperature of a working fluid within the system, below a threshold temperature.
  • ORC organic rankine cycle
  • the system and method provide a waste heat fluid that flows into various sections of a heat exchanger to enable optimal heat exchange between the waste heat fluid and the working fluid thereby avoiding overheating of the working fluid.
  • the heat exchanger includes external and internal enhancement features to provide optimal heat exchange between the waste heat fluid and the working fluid. It should be noted that both the embodiments may also be employed in conjunction with each other.

  • the evaporator outlet flow from the evaporator 22 is conveyed to a superheater 24.
  • the superheater 24 further heats the elevated temperature working fluid 25 to produce a working fluid 29 at a relatively higher temperature within the heat exchanger 20 compared to the temperatures of the working fluid at the evaporator 22 and a preheater 28.
  • the superheater 24 promotes heat exchange between the relatively higher temperature working fluid 29 and the lower temperature waste heat fluid 23 to produce a superheater outlet flow including an elevated temperature waste heat fluid 27.

  • the film temperatures 54 of the working fluid in contact with the waste heat fluid increase from about 80 deg C at preheater 58 to vary between about 244 deg C to about 273 deg C in the evaporator 60, and further to reach a temperature of about 240 deg C at the superheater 62, which is well below a threshold temperature of the working fluid.
