Organic rankine cycle systems using waste heat from charge air cooling

摘要

The present application and the resultant patent provide a waste heat recovery system (100) for recovering heat from a number of turbocharger stages (210). The waste heat recovery system (100) may include a simple organic rankine cycle system (110) and a number of charge air coolers (220) in communication with the turbocharger stages (210) and the simple organic rankine cycle system (110). The charge air coolers (220) are positioned in a number of parallel branches (270) of the simple organic rankine cycle system (110).
