Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to a multi-pressure stage, organic Rankine cycle (“ORC”) that includes a dry organic working fluid that may be split, such that a first portion of the working fluid flows through a high pressure stage and a second portion of the working fluid flows through a low pressure stage. Components of the high pressure stage and the low pressure stage may be heated by a heat source stream that may be split in a tee downstream of a high pressure evaporator and recombined in a mixer before entering a low pressure preheater.
