Abstract

This paper presents a review of the research on the Kalina cycle, including the description of the Kalina cycle, the comparison of the Rankine and Kalina cycle, energy and exergy analysis on the Kalina cycle, different Kalina systems and their different applications. Moreover, different correlations for calculating thermodynamic properties of ammonia–water mixture are screened and discussed. In the end, some technique concerns on ammonia–water mixture, i.e., stability, environmental impacts, safety and corrosion problem etc are also discussed.
