Principle of Temperature Difference Power Generation

- Liquid working fluid (WF) with low boiling point is evaporated by heat sources (OTEC=25~30℃ surface seawater, DTEC=60~200℃ waste heat) at evaporator.
- WF vapor drives turbine generator to produce electricity.
- WF vapor is cooled by cool sources (OTEC=5~7℃ deep seawater, DTEC=10~30℃ river water, seawater, factory water, etc.) back to liquid at condenser.
- WF recirculates in the cycle.
