<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a Rankine cycle system that can be started promptly even at a low temperature. <P>SOLUTION: The Rankine cycle system 100 includes: a water jacket provided in an engine 1, and through which a mixed refrigerant made by mixing water and LLC having a higher boiling point than water flows; an expander 10 for recovering energy from a gas-phase water evaporated by the waste heat of the engine 1; a condenser 12 for condensing the pure water having passed through the expander 10, into a liquid phase; and a mixed-refrigerant passage 19 for circulating the mixed refrigerant, which is arranged to allow heat exchange between the water and the mixed refrigerant in a circuit where water in a gas phase or a liquid phase passes. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT |
