description In order to make full use of the medium and low temperature geothermal resources and industrial waste heat resources, a power cycle system using ammonia–water mixed solution as the working fluid is proposed. The system can use medium and low temperature geothermal resources with a temperature of 350–450 K, and the basic circulating working fluid is ammonia aqueous solutions. Simulation calculations show that the Carnot cycle efficiency of the circulation system is 14.01%, and the theoretical cycle thermal efficiency of the circulation system is 10.28%. The article further analyzes the influence of steam turbine outlet pressure and heat source temperature on the thermal efficiency of the circulation system. This research provides a reference for the effective utilization of medium and low temperature waste heat resources.
