Conception et optimisation d’un système solaire à cycle organique de Rankine

Abstract

This work involves conducting a thermodynamic analysis of the performance of an organic Rankine cycle (ORC) solar system. The design parameter optimization procedure is performed using the response surface methodology (RSM). Thermodynamic numerical simulations are performed using the EES code for various parameters. The objective of this work is, firstly, to model and develop prediction equations for the performance of the organic Rankine cycle (ORC) studied, the efficiency (η) and the work of the cycle (Wnet) based on the ORC cycle characteristics, namely the turbine outlet pressure (P2), the pump inlet pressure (P5), and the turbine efficiency (ηT) using the centered composite design. Secondly, we are interested in multiple response optimization to find the optimal values for the characteristics of an ORC solar system relative to the objectives.
