Sylvain Quoilin Chapter 4 : Description of the experiments 4.5 Conclusion A total of 71 tests is performed on the test bench : The two first series of tests show acceptable results, they demonstrate the feasibility of such an organic Rankine cycle. In those tests, the efficiencies reached are quite low and very far from the Carnot efficiency. They could easily be improved by a better design of the expander and an optimization of the cycle. Themeasurementsshowmanyincoherencies,especiallyfortheairflowrate: themeasuredflowrate seems wrong and is abandoned in favor of the theoretical flow rate of the hot air generator. A high pressure drop is also measured in the condenser. This pressure drop being detrimental to the cycle, it is to be improved in the next tests. The range of parameters used for the first series of test is quite limited. It is widened in the second series. It is obvious that some refrigerant losses occurred during the test period. The consequence is a very low refrigerant flow rate in the second series of test, and a poor output power. The third series of test is performed in agreement with the experience and the recommendations of the two first sets of tests. The circuit is insulated, a coriolis flow meter is installed, and an expansion tank is set up. The results show a very good improvement of the output power and of the cycle efficiency. Another very important improvement on the test bench is the ability to modify the refrigerant charge. This charge turns out to be a primordial parameter to maximize the cycle output power. The low flow rate detected in the second series of tests is explained by the apparition of a two­phase stateattheexhaustofthecondenser. Thistwo­phasestateoccursevenifthefluidissubcooled,andis explained by the condenser asymmetry. The presence of a non­condensable gas is highlighted and shows that the circuit is not completely hermetic. 73

Infinity Supercritical CO2 10 Liter Extractor Design and Worldwide Rights: The Infinity Supercritical 10L CO2 extractor is for botanical oil extraction, which is rich in terpenes and can produce shelf ready full spectrum oil. With over 5 years of development, this industry leader mature extractor machine has been sold since 2015 and is part of many profitable businesses. The process can also be used for electrowinning, e-waste recycling, and lithium battery recycling, gold mining electronic wastes, precious metals. CO2 can also be used in a reverse fuel cell with nafion to make a gas-to-liquids fuel, such as methanol, ethanol and butanol or ethylene. Supercritical CO2 has also been used for treating nafion to make it more effective catalyst. This NFT is for the purchase of worldwide rights which includes the design. More Info
