Energy and Exergy Analyses of Geothermal Organic Rankine Cycles Considering the Effect of Brine Reinjection Temperature

The organic Rankine cycles (ORCs) have been used to convert low-enthalpy geothermal brine into power. Parameter optimization and working fluid selection are the main approaches to enhance geothermal ORC performance. This work uses environmentally friendly fluids, including R1224yd(Z), R1233zd(E), R1...
