An ORC system applied to cooling system of a Tanker is investigated. Four working fluids R134a, R227ea, R245fa, R236fa have been considered. The maximum eletric power is evaluated for the main engine loads. After that, the annual energy saving is calculated using the duration for each engine load. An economic analysis is carried out through three parameters: net present value, dynamic payback period, internal rate of return

Abstract

An ORC system applied to cooling system of a Tanker is investigated. Four working fluids R134a, R227ea, R245fa, R236fa have been considered. The maximum eletric power is evaluated for the main engine loads. After that, the annual energy saving is calculated using the duration for each engine load. An economic analysis is carried out through three parameters: net present value, dynamic payback period, internal rate of return
