Advanced Inverted Brayton Cycle exhaust heat recovery with Steam Generation

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

The project builds on the technology development work being carried out in Innovate UK iBranch project, andwill assess the technical feasibility of an Additive Manufactured complex multi-fluid multi-phase heat exchangerfor use within an Inverted Brayton waste heat recovery system. The system converts waste exhaust energyfrom an internal combustion engine into useable power, either electrical or shaft. The heat exchanger aims tosignificantly increase the energy harvest potential of the system using phase change and multiple coolant loopsto optimise the thermal management, and is expected to reduce CO2 emissions by 10%. The partners are HiETATechnologies Ltd, the University of Bath and Axes Design Ltd.
