COMPOUND CLOSED-LOOP HEAT CYCLE SYSTEM FOR RECOVERING WASTE HEAT AND METHOD THEREOF

摘要

A waste heat recovery system includes a Brayton cycle system having an heater (46) configured to circulate carbon dioxide vapor in heat exchange relationship with a hot fluid to heat carbon dioxide vapor. A Rankine cycle system is coupled to the Brayton cycle system and configured to circulate a working fluid in heat exchange relationship with the carbon dioxide vapor to heat the working fluid.
