The Ericsson cycle is very much like the Stirling cycle, except that the processes of constant-volume regenerative heat transfer are replaced by constant-pressure regenerative processes . The efficiency of the Ericsson cycle is the same as that of the Carnot cycle but, as in the Stirling cycle, the net available work and the quantities of heat transferred are much greater, for given limits of pressure, volume, and temperature. In the Brayton cycle with turbomachinery, as the number of compression and expansion stages is increased, the Brayton cycle with intercooling, reheating, and regeneration will approach the Ericsson cycle and the thermal efficiency will approach the theoretical limit (the Carnot efficiency). Although the Ericsson cycle is often considered, it is usually abandoned because the added complexity of the turbomachinery and the need for many additional components, discourage its use. But in the orbiting scroll machine as a positive displacement type of machinery, it is possible to reheat the working fluid in the process of expansion and intercooling in the process of compression effectively due to the extensive surface area of the scroll wrap contacting the fluid in the working spaces. In this paper, we propose the Ericsson cycle comprising a scroll expander with heating system and a scroll compressor with cooling system. And also, heating of scroll expander uniformly can reduce differential thermal expansion over the whole scroll wrap which is critical problem in the scroll expander for high-temperature and high-pressure gas.
