Summary

Power generation from medium or low temperature waste heat is beneficial because it improves the availability of the energy by converting waste heat into electricity or mechanical work. The paper proposes a three-stage combined power cycle using cold energy for power generation from medium temperature waste heat. The system consists of an ammonia-water Rankine cycle, an ethane-propane Rankine cycle and a liquefied natural gas direct expansion cycle. A cycle simulation of the system is executed, and the operating conditions under which the exergetic efficiency is maximized are presented.
