RANKINE CYCLE APPARATUS, COMBINED HEAT AND POWER SYSTEM, AND RANKINE CYCLE APPARATUS OPERATION METHOD

摘要

A Rankine cycle apparatus includes a pump, an evaporator, an expander, a condenser, and an internal heat exchanger. The internal heat exchanger allows heat exchange to take place between a working fluid discharged from the expander and a working fluid discharged from the pump. A temperature of the working fluid at an inlet of the expander is set so that a temperature of the working fluid at an outlet of the expander be higher than a saturation temperature on a high-pressure side of the cycle.
