Recently, there has been increasing attention towards the combined power and cooling (CPC) cycle due to its higher overall efficiency and diversified energy output. However, there is room for improvement in the existing CPC cycles as they fail to ensure good temperature matching between the cycles and heat sources and sinks simultaneously. This study proposes a novel CPC cycle that integrates various components and meets the requirements for temperature matching under ideal conditions. The performance of the proposed CPC cycle using R600a/R601a mixtures in a geothermal application is analyzed, and the results demonstrate improved exergy efficiency compared to using pure R600a and R601a.
Recently, the combined power and cooling (CPC) cycle has attracted more and more attention due to its higher overall efficiency and diversified energy output. However, the existing CPC cycles cannot guarantee a good temperature matching between the cycles and heat sources and sinks at the same time, which leaves some room for improvement in the CPC cycles. In this study, according to the temperature matching principle, three basic requirements that CPC cycles should meet under ideal conditions are clearly stated for the first time. After that, a novel CPC cycle that can meet these requirements is proposed by integrating the organic flash cycle, ejector refrigeration cycle, internal heat exchanger, and zeotropic mixtures. To study the performance of the proposed CPC cycle using R600a/R601a mixtures in the geothermal application, energy and exergy analysis is conducted. Results show that the maximum exergy efficiency of the proposed CPC cycle using R600a/R601a mixtures is 36.34 %, which is 1.34 % and 3.38 % higher than that using pure R600a and R601a, respectively. Moreover, when the exergy efficiency of the proposed CPC cycle is maximum, the sum of the exergy destruction of the heater, condenser, and evaporator using R600a/R601a mixtures is 17.92 kW, which is 4.23 % and 7.93 % less than that using pure R600a and R601a, respectively.
