In the present study, the effects of Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) and turbo-compound (T/C) system integration on a heavy-duty diesel engine (HDDE) is investigated. An inline six-cylinder turbocharged 11.5 liter compression ignition (CI) engine employing two waste heat recovery (WHR) strategies is modelled, simulated, and analyzed through a 1-D engine code called GT-Power. The WHR systems are evaluated by their ability to utilize the exhaust excess energy at the downstream of the primary turbocharger turbine, resulting in brake specific fuel consumption (BSFC) reduction. This excess energy is dependent on the mass flow rate and the temperature of engine exhaust gas. However, this energy varies with engine operational conditions, such as speed, load, etc. Therefore, the investigation is carried out at six engine major operating conditions consisting engine idling, minimum BFSC, part load, maximum torque, maximum power, and maximum exhaust flow rate. The results for the ORC and T/C systems indicated a 4.8% and 2.3% total average reduction in BSFC and also maximum thermal efficiencies of 8% and 10%, respectively. Unlike the ORC system, the T/C system was modelled as a secondary turbine arrangement, instead of an independent unit. This in turn deteriorated BSFC by 5.5%, mostly during low speed operation, due to the increased exhaust backpressure. It was further concluded that the T/C system performed superiorly to the ORC counterpart during top end engine speeds, however. The ORC presented a balanced and consistent operation across the engines speed and load range.

Heavy Duty Diesel

Despite the high thermal efficiency achieved by modern heavy-duty diesel engines, over 40% of the energy contained in the fuel is wasted as heat either in the cooling or the exhaust gases. By recovering part of the wasted energy, the overall thermal efficiency of the engine increases and the pollutant emissions are reduced. Organic Rankine cycle (ORC) systems are considered a favourable candidate technology to recover exhaust gas waste heat, because of their simplicity and small backpressure impact on the engine performance and fuel consumption. The recovered energy can be transformed into electricity or directly into mechanical power. In this study, an axial turbine expander for an ORC system was designed and optimized for a heavy-duty diesel engine for which real-world data were available. The impact of the ORC system on the fuel consumption under various operating points was investigated. Compared to an ORC system equipped with a radial turbine expander, the axial design improved fuel consumption by between 2 and 10% at low and high engine speeds. Finally, the benefits of utilising ORC systems for waste heat recovery in heavy-duty trucks is evaluated by performing various drive cycle tests, and it is found that the highest values of fuel consumption were found in the NEDC and the HDUDDS as these cycles generally involve more dynamic driving profiles. However, it was in these cycles that the ORC could recover more energy with an overall fuel consumption reduction of 5 and 4.8%, respectively.
