A co-rotational scroll machine

Jürg Alexander Schiffmann, Luis Carlos Mendoza Toledo

A co-rotating scroll machine operable as compressor or expander, comprises a transmission and guidance mechanism (9,10) for first and second scroll plates (7,8), having three transmission and guidance units (9,10) uniformly distributed around the scroll pl ...

Dimensionless correlations and performance maps of scroll expanders for micro-scale Organic Rankine Cycles

Jürg Alexander Schiffmann, Luis Eric Olmedo Ocampo, Violette Mounier, Luis Carlos Mendoza Toledo

In the endeavor towards distributed power systems, not seasonal-dependent micro-power generation technologies are expected to integrate the energy scenario in the years to come. In this context, the Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) in the (1e10) KWe scale has c ...

Testing and modelling of a novel oil-free co-rotating scroll machine with water injection

Jürg Alexander Schiffmann, Luis Carlos Mendoza Toledo

Efficient compressed air energy storage requires reversible isothermal compression and expansion devices. The isothermal compression and expansion processes can either be approached by several stages with intercooling or by the more convenient injection of ...

Thermo-economic optimization of an ORC driven heat pump based on small scale turbomachinery and comparison with absorption heat pumps

Jürg Alexander Schiffmann, Violette Mounier, Luis Carlos Mendoza Toledo

The current paper presents the thermo-economic optimization and comparison, through a multi-objective algorithm, between HP-ORC and the competing single effect absorption heat pump (SEAHP), with the aim to find the best trade-off between investment cost an ...

Theoretical Study of a Novel Oil-Free Co-Rotating Scroll Compressor Integrated into a Hybrid Absorption Heat Pumps

Jürg Alexander Schiffmann, Luis Carlos Mendoza Toledo

Hybrid absorption heat pumps (Osenbrück cycle and Hybrid wet compression cycle) are known for high temperature lifts, low-pressure ratios and wide capacity control. They are well suited for processes with the occurrence of significant heat sink and heat so ...
