Abstract

In recent years, energy conservation and emission reduction have been the main targets for the industry of internal combustion engine (ICE). The waste heat recovery from ICEs can improve the overall energy efficiency obviously and reduce fuel consumption greatly. Organic Rankine cycle (ORC) is a promising approach to recover waste heat energy and has been used to harness low-grade heat extensively. In this paper, a simulation model of a combined system of ICE-ORC is built using GT-Suite software. Then, the dynamic performance of the ICE-ORC combined system is studied. The results can provide some meaningful insights for the practical application of ORC system on automotive engines.
