Thought a waste heat recovery system is one of key technologies for sustainable energy, the initial cost of the system is too expensive to introduce for small and medium-sized companies, such as a Japanese hot spring inn. Since the cost for research and development accounts for a large share of total cost of the system, the cost can be reduced if the system is composed of mass-produced commercial components. In this study, an analytical result and an experimental result for two waste heat recovery cycles composed of components dismounted from a commercial heat pump unit are shown. In the analytical study about a supercritical CO2Rankine cycle, the thermal efficiency of the cycle was calculated to be 6.77 % if it could be assumed that all of the components delivered the equal performance compared with the original heat pump system. In the experimental study about the Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) with R245fa which uses the fin-tube heat exchanger dismounted from the heat pump, we found that the air cooled fin-tube heat exchanger performed well at the room temperature and this ORC system had an ability to generate the small amount of positive power from the exhaust heat from hot spring water.
