Abstract

Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) is a promising solution to improve vehicle efficiency, but its commercial success is hindered by the compactness and cost requirements of the automotive sector. In an attempt to overcome these limitations, a reversible mobile air conditioning (MAC)/ORC, hereafter called ReverCycle, is proposed in this work. ReverCycle is a compact system that operates in two different modes: a standard MAC system when cabin cooling is required or an ORC recovering mechanical energy from the waste heat of an engine’s cooling system.
