Abstract:
According to the heat collection characteristics of parabolic trough solar collector,R600 and R245fa are selected as circulating working fluids. The thermo-economic models of basic organic Rankine cycle(BORC)and the ORC system with internal heat exchanger(IHE-ORC)are established with the exergy efficiency and levelized energy cost(LEC)as objectives,respectively. Bi-objective optimization is conducted using the non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm. The optimal thermo-economic performance of two systems with two working fluids are obtained using TOPSIS with entropy weight method integrated. The variations of thermo-economic performance of the systems with evaporation pressure,superheat degree and condensation temperature are analyzed. The results show that,under optimization and decision making,when R245fa is used,IHE-ORC system has clear advantage in thermodynamic performance with the optimal exergy efficiency and LEC of 54.11% and 0.1548 $/kWh,respectively. When R600 is used,BORC system exhibits better economic performance with the optimal exergy efficiency and LEC of 49.89% and 0.1318 $/kWh,respectively. Within the variation range of operating parameters,the exergy efficiency and LEC of IHE-ORC system are always higher than those of BORC,and much higher exergy efficiency is obtained when using R245fa,while much lower LEC is achieved when using R600. © 2024 Science Press.
