British Thermal Unit (BTU) The amount of heat that will raise 1 pound of
water 1 degree Fahrenheit. One BTU is equivalent to 252 calories, 1055
Joules, and 0.293 Watt-hours. There are 3412 BTUs per 1 kW. BTUs are a
common measure of heat in the United States.

AMP The AMP or Ampere is a unit indicating the flow rate of electrons. The
AMP is a measure of current (6.242 x 1018 electrons per second)
Watt - A Watt is a unit of electrical power that equals one Joule per second.
Work is done at a rate of one Watt when one ampere flows through a potential
difference of one volt.

Power Factor - The ratio of real power (kW) actually used in an electrical
circuit to apparent power (kVA), the power being drawn from the power
source.
DC: Watts = Volts X Amps = VA
AC: Watts = Volts X Amps X Power Factor VA (unless PF = 1)

For many waste heat applications, we need a fluid that boils at a lower
temperature than water
Historically, such fluids have been hydrocarbons - hence the name Organic.

Operation of an Engine results in exhaust that is quite hot. Our unit captures
this heat (can be any stack gas) and converts it to usable electricity.
Biomass refers to green and dry plant material that can be used as fuel
A closed loop system where the heat removed for the WHG must be added
back.

The working fluid is in the receiver as a liquid at the condensing pressure and temperature. It
enters the pump where the working fluids pressure is raised to the evaporating pressure.

The working fluid passes through a heat exchanger (Economizer) to take heat out of the gas
leaving the Integrated Power Module. This improves system efficiency. The working fluid is now
a warmer, high pressure liquid.

The working fluid (now a vapor) enters the turbine of the IPM. The working fluids pressure drops
across the turbine to the condensing pressure, spinning the turbine (which is connected to the
generator) in the process. The driving force is the pressure difference across the turbine.

The working fluid still has an enormous amount of heat, some of which is transferred to the
pumped liquid in the economizer. This helps in two ways: 1) this heat would have otherwise
been extracted in the condenser and; 2) there is less heat required at the evaporator due to the
liquid being pre-warmed.
