Abstract

The self-water supply organic Rankine cycle (ORC) is a power generation system using the low enthalpy heat water by a distillation to feed the product water into the cooling water system. The lowpressure steam produced by the flash evaporation in the vacuumed condition enters into the ORC as the heat input. The process, because seawater will not flow to the heat exchanger directly, allows to prevent the scaling in heat exchanger caused by the supersaturated Ca, Si, and so on. In this study, the parametric analysis of a novel self-water supply ORC is conducted to uncertain the basic power generation and water production performance. The results show the available power generation capacity and the possibility to feed sufficient water to the cooling water circuit for contentious operation.
