What is Heat Exchanger Loss in ORCs for Aluminum Waste about?

This document discusses using organic Rankine cycles (ORCs) to recover waste heat from smelter off-gas in aluminum production. It finds that applying ORCs could increase required off-gas fan power significantly. However, off-gas cooling from the ORC also reduces downstream pressure losses, affecting fan power. The study analyzes how fan power impacts the optimal ORC system performance and finds that accounting for potential downstream pressure loss reductions is important for designing efficient systems.
