Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for controlling a thermal cyclic process, in particular an Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC), which is operated with a working medium in conjunction with a dynamic heat source, whereby the method comprises the following steps: (a) determination of a setpoint value of a process variable of the thermal cyclic process from a value of an input parameter or respective values of a plurality of input parameters of the thermal cyclic process; (b) control of the thermal cyclic process with the determined setpoint value of the process variable as a target variable of the control; and (c) repeated execution of steps (a) and (b) when at least one value of the input parameters changes.

Claim (Index 4):
Method according to  claim 3  wherein the designation of the function for calculating the setpoint value of the process variable comprises a maximisation of the product of an efficiency of the heat transfer from the heat source to the cyclic process and an efficiency of the cyclic process, or wherein the designation of the table for determining the setpoint value of the process variable comprises a maximisation of the product of an efficiency of the heat transfer from the heat source to the cyclic process and an efficiency of the cyclic process.
