The goal of this 1 day course is to provide engineers with a better understanding of what waste heat recovery (WHR) systems are and how they can greatly benefit the way we look at our processes.

• Introduction and overview of waste heat recovery and thermodynamic cycles including ORC and sCO2
• Selection of fluid for recovering of low grade waste heat
• Design requirements for heat exchangers used in waste heat recovery
• Discussion of turbine applications (axial versus radial, inlet flow versus outlet flow) and when to use them
• Overall design process of turbines for different types of expanders (including axial vs radial) as well as pumps for waste heat recovery application
• Current design challenges and opportunities in waste heat recovery systems

• Mechanical engineers and engineering managers working with waste heat recovery systems who are looking to learn about different system and component design and optimization strategies
• Technical managers and development engineers looking to improve or expand the product range by incorporating innovative engineering solutions into the waste heat recovery system design
• Professionals working on investigating new renewable and green energy technologies within the automotive industry specific to turbomachinery
