摘要:
Provided is a thermal energy recovery device in which a site of a circulation flow path between an evaporated portion and an expander can be avoided having too high temperature upon stoppage of power recovery by a power recovery machine. The thermal energy recovery device includes an evaporator (10), an expander (12), a power recovery machine (14), a condenser (16), a pump (18), a circulation flow path (20), a cooling flow path (30) for supplying working medium of liquid phase flowing out of the pump (18) partially to a site of the circulation flow path (20) between the evaporator (10) and the expander (12), an on-off valve (V1) provided in the cooling flow path (30), and a control unit (40), in which upon reception of a stop signal for stopping power recovery by the power recovery machine (14), the control unit (40) opens the on-off valve (V1).

Provided is a power generating apparatus capable of using power generated by a heat engine in combination with power of a driving source provided separately from the heat engine. In order to prevent a problem caused when activating and stopping the apparatus, the apparatus of the present invention includes a rotary machine driving source which generates a rotational driving force for a rotary machine and a heat engine which drives the rotary machine in cooperation with the rotary machine driving source, wherein the heat engine includes an expander which expands an evaporated working medium so as to generate a rotational driving force, the expander is provided with a bypass pipe which causes a working medium inlet of the expander to communicate with a working medium outlet thereof, and the bypass pipe is provided with an on-off valve which opens and closes the bypass pipe.
摘要:
An energy recovery device includes a plurality of heat exchangers connected in parallel with each other into which a plurality of heat sources flow, an expander for expanding a working medium, a dynamic power recovery unit, a condenser, a pump for sending the working medium which has flown out from the condenser to the plurality of heat exchangers, and a regulator for regulating inflow rates of the working medium flowing into the plurality of heat exchangers. The regulator regulates the inflow rates of the liquid phase working medium flowing into the plurality of respective heat exchangers such that a difference of temperatures or a difference of degrees of superheat of the gas phase working medium which has flown out from the plurality of respective heat exchangers falls within a certain range. Thereby, heat energy can be efficiently recovered from the plurality of heat sources having temperatures different from each other.
