Abstract
The amount and quality of waste heat from a resource recovery facility were measured. The temperature of exhaust gas was $176.6^{\circ}C$ and the amount of that was 13.8 kg/s. This research designed a waste heat recovery system whose working fluid is R-245fa. It simulated three study cases as follows. In simulation of a basic ORC system, the turbine power output and thermal efficiency were respectively 96.56 kW, 14.3%. In simulation of a superheater connection, 0.09% of efficiency could be improved due to the increase of enthalpy by overheating of working fluid, but the obtained output was decreased with 16.58kW because of the decrease of working fluid mass. In simulation of a process heater connection, efficiency was increased up to 38.51%.
