Summary:This paper takes solar-powered organic Rankine-vapor compression air conditioning as the research object, and uses thermodynamic simulation methods to study the type of working fluid, system design and influencing factors. The results show that the temperature and condensation temperature of the working fluid have an important effect on the performance of the system. The cooling power per unit area collector and the total efficiency of the system first increase and then decrease with the temperature of the working fluid, and decrease with the increase of the condensation temperature. Through performance comparison, it is found that R123 is a more suitable working fluid, the thermodynamic feasibility of a solar-powered organic Rankine-vapor compression air-conditioning system was demonstrated.
