Why R245fa as working fluid?
Power density of R245fa at elevated temperatures matches that of R134a based refrigeration compressors.
Use existing R134a based compressor
Reduction in development and production time and cost of the turbo generator.
Moderate GWP of 950

Summary R1233zd can be used in existing R245fa based ORC turbine with little or no
modifications. While care should be taken for components in contact with theworking fluid and be checked for material compatibility.
With the a reasonably close spouting velocity of R1233zd compared to R245fa atdesign conditions, a fixed speed machine would have a comparable turbineefficiency to that of variable speed machine when R1233zd is used as the drop influid.
The use of low GWP R1233zd for low temperature ORC system shows promising8.7% higher cycle efficiency when compared to an equivalent R245fa basedsystem.
This gain in performance of R1233zd when compared to R245fa system shouldhelp realize proportional reduction in cost/kW and ROI time over existing R245famachines.
R1233zd with its low GWP and high cycle efficiency when compared to R245facould make it a great candidate for low GWP, low temperature ORC systems.
