Abstract

A waste heat recovery system includes an expander for converting heat energy in a gaseous operating medium to mechanical energy, a condenser downstream of the expander for liquefying the operating medium, and a source of oil for lubricating moving parts of the expander. The expander is of a type that permits at least some mixing of the operating medium and the oil. A centrifugal separator connected downstream of the condenser separates mixed liquid oil and liquid operating medium. A method for waste heat recovery in a waste heat recovery system is a!so provided.
