The criteria for choosing the optimum working fluid were discussed and many different organic fluids were compared in terms of thermal efficiency and power output. The results showed that higher efficiencies were obtained for ORCs with IHE configuration, and the organic fluid R123 had the most favorable performance for which the thermal efficiency of ORC was 14.2 and 13.28 with and without IHE, respectively. Moreover, the work output of ORC cycle was about 50 kJ/kg which was the highest when using R123 as an organic fluid.}, keywords = {geothermal,Rankine Cycle,Organic fluids}, url = {https://rera.shahroodut.ac.ir/article_1660.html}, eprint = {https://rera.shahroodut.ac.ir/article_1660_8e982c6c1d50c93b74c9de4d4855a281.pdf} }
