In the current paper, under the condition of different flue gas temperatures and constant flue gas thermal power, the influence of different organic working fluids on the efficiency of sub-critical organic Rankine cycle system were studied. The efficiency and other parameters of the simple system were calculated. The results show that the efficiency of sub-critical organic Rankine cycle system could reach maximum when the parameters of the working fluids in the expander inlet are dry-saturation. Flammability, toxicity, ozone depletion and other factors of the working fluids should be considered in the organic Rankine cycles. R245fa is considered a better choice for low-temperature heat source power generation, and the efficiency of the system is about 10.2%; for the high-temperature heat source, R601a can be considered; however, due to its high flammability, novel working fluids should be further discovered for power generation.

A Rankine cycle using organic fluids as working fluids, called organic Rankine cycle (ORC), is potentially feasible in recovering low enthalpy containing heat sources. The choices of fluids should meet the requirement of environment, safety, critical pressure and critical temperature etc. Under the proposed working conditions, R600a, R245fa, R236fa, R236ea, R227ea are chosen as the working fluids of the low-temperature Rankine cycle system, then those fluids are investigated and compared from cycle efficiency, work ratio, exergy efficiency, irreversible loss. The results show that R245fa is an available and effective working fluid for low-temperature Rankine cycle.
