Abstract

Invest in the study of power generation processes that lead to the reduction of greenhouse gases emissions and allow the increase of energy efficiency, maximizing the use of available sources, is a fundamental strategy to mitigate the anthropic impact on global warming. With this in mind, this paper develops a detailed analysis about the use of a new organic fluid of mixture type consisting by CO2 (carbon dioxide) and HFC-161 hydrofluorocarbon, in a Rankine power cycle using a sensitive heat source of low temperature (150 ° C). Preliminary analyzes allowed to identify the mixture impact on the efficiency and liquid power of the cycle, as well as, beneficial aspects of this new working fluid from a normalize merit parameter of environmental nature in power cycles.
