ANALYSIS AND OPTIMIZATION OF DENSE GAS FLOWS: APPLICATION TO ORGANIC RANKINE CYCLES TURBINES

This thesis presents an accurate study about the fluid-dynamics of dense gases and their potential application as working fluids in Organic Rankine Cycles (ORCs). The ORCs are similar to a steam Rankine Cycle where an organic fluid is used instead of steam, which ensures better efficiency for low-te...
