Anyone know of any practical Rankine cycle units in the market, old or new or even under development.
I'm looking for material to support a paper.

Scroll as expander: biggest issue is getting lubricant from Low Side back to high and managing the operating temperature of lubricnat. Swiss have been building large scrolls for utitlity expanders for industrial processes, believe AB & B are involved in it. See if this helps at all...
