This book forms the proceedings of the 11th International Conference of the Properties of Steam, conducted in 1989 in Czechoslovakia. The session provided an international forum for the dissemination of information on recent progress in experiment, theory and formulation of the properties of steam and aqueous systems in the power industry during the past five years. The papers reflect present knowledge of the thermophysical properties of pure ordinary and heavy water to the properties of aqueous solutions, to the power cycle chemistry, to corrosion in power plants.

Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) Power Systems: Technologies and Applications provides a systematic and detailed description of organic Rankine cycle technologies and the way they are increasingly of interest for cost-effective sustainable energy generation. Popular applications include cogeneration from biomass and electricity generation from geothermal reservoirs and concentrating solar power installations, as well as waste heat recovery from gas turbines, internal combustion engines and medium- and low-temperature industrial processes. With hundreds of ORC power systems already in operation and the market growing at a fast pace, this is an active and engaging area of scientific research and technical development. The book is structured in three main parts: (i) Introduction to ORC Power Systems, Design and Optimization, (ii) ORC Plant Components, and (iii) Fields of Application. Provides a thorough introduction to ORC power systems Contains detailed chapters on ORC plant components Includes a section focusing on ORC design and optimization Reviews key applications of ORC technologies, including cogeneration from biomass, electricity generation from geothermal reservoirs and concentrating solar power installations, waste heat recovery from gas turbines, internal combustion engines and medium- and low-temperature industrial processes Various chapters are authored by well-known specialists from Academia and ORC manufacturers

The physical properties of water and steam have been the subject of lhorough investigation for a long time. It can, on the one hand, be due to the important role of this substance in the processes that take place in nature and, on the .other hand, due to its wide industrial use. Steam is the most important working substance used in conventional and nuc lear power plants, in chemical engineering and other fields of industry. The variety of practical use of water and steam generates a need for knowing their thermodynamic, transport, electrical, and other properties over a ·very wide range of temperatures and pressures. International Conferences on the Properties of Steam, which have taken place since 1929, have the aim to promote wide exchange of the results of theoretical and experimental studies into the properties of ordinary and heavy water in a11 phase states. In the course of last decade f.he investigation oC physical and chemical properties of concentrated and dilute aqueous solutions that are of interest in the first place from the point of view of power play an important part in these studies.
