DEVICE FOR CONTROLLING A CLOSED LOOP WORKING ON A RANKINE CYCLE AND METHOD USING SAME

摘要

The present invention is a device and method for controlling a closed loop (10) working on a Rankine cycle comprising a compression/circulation pump (12) for the fluid in liquid form, a heat exchanger (20) swept by a hot source (C) for evaporation of the fluid, expansion device (32) for the fluid in vapor form, a cooling exchange (44) swept by a cold source (F) for condensation of the working fluid, a working fluid tank (50) and working fluid circulation lines (60, 62, 64, 66, 68). The tank (50) is connected to a pressure regulating device (52, 54).
