Small-scale turbopumps for waste heat recovery applications based on an organic Rankine cycle: a study from pre-design to experimental validation

The organic Rankine cycle (ORC) system is among the technologies applied to exploit waste heat in vehicles. Since common organic fluids have lower latent heat than water, higher mass flow rates are required to convert the same waste heat, considerably incr ...

Experimental Investigation of a Small-Scale Organic Rankine Cycle Turbo-Generator Supported on Gas-Lubricated Bearings

Jürg Alexander Schiffmann, Kévin Rosset

Waste heat recovery (WHR) is expected to contribute to reducing CO2 emissions from trucks. Organic Rankine cycle (ORC) systems show the highest potential for this application, but still lack efficient small-scale expansion devices, in practice. A novel tur ...

Tension-tension fatigue behavior of hybrid glass/carbon and carbon/carbon composites

Anastasios Vassilopoulos, José Manuel de Sena Cruz

This work investigates the quasi-static, low-cycle and fatigue behavior of hybrid glass/ultra-high modulus carbon (GC) and low modulus/ /high modulus carbon (CC) fiber composites. These pseudo-ductile unidirectional interlayer hybrids are a new type of com ...
