The research provides an in-depth analysis of the Rankine Cycle and Organic Working Fluids, with a focus on the Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC)as a type of thermodynamic cycle in thermal engineering. The research explores the use of organic, high-molecular-mass fluids, allowing heat recovery from lower-temperature sources for conversion into useful work and electricity. The research also provides detailed information on different types of organic working fluids and their COP under various working conditions, presented with the aid of charts, tables, and numeric data. The findings of this research provide valuable insights for future applications of ORC technology in the context of sustainable energy generation and heat recoveryReferences
