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

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 ...

Extended Windage Loss Models for Gas Bearing Supported Spindles Operated in Dense Gases

Jürg Alexander Schiffmann, Kévin Rosset

Generic models are proposed to evaluate the skin friction coefficient acting on enclosed rotating disks and cylinders under various flow regimes. In particular, a model taking into account the inner radius of the disk is developed. The models are compared ...

Small-scale organic Rankine cycle turbo-generator for waste heat recovery on truck engine

Kévin Rosset

Truck engine waste heat recovery (WHR) systems have been investigated for many years. Among them, organic Rankine cycle (ORC) systems show the highest potential, but still lack efficient small-scale expansion devices, in practice. Proposed expanders are of ...

Multi-objective optimization of turbo-ORC systems for waste heat recovery on passenger car engines

Jürg Alexander Schiffmann, Kévin Rosset, Eliott Philippe Guenat, Violette Mounier

Waste heat recovery from passenger car internal combustion engines by means of an organic Rankine cycle (ORC) system is promising for reducing CO2 emissions. In this study, different cycle configurations capable of converting waste heat from both coolant a ...

Potential of Small-Scale Turbomachinery for Waste Heat Recovery on Automotive Internal Combustion Engines

Jürg Alexander Schiffmann, Eliott Philippe Guenat, Violette Mounier, Kévin Rosset

This paper investigates the waste heat recovery potential of internal combustion engines, using organic Rankine cycles running on small-scale radial turbomachinery. ORC are promising candidates for low-grade thermal sources and the use of dynamic expanders ...
