Abstract:
The present invention relates to apparatus, systems, and methods of managing large quantities of low-grade waste heat energy by generating excess electrical power via an ORC process driven by the removal and recovery of waste heat under favorable operating conditions, and utilizing the same apparatus to provide waste heat removal via a refrigeration process that consumes electrical power when environmental conditions do not permit operation in the ORC mode. The mode of operation of the system is principally determined by the thermal energy of the waste heat stream and the availability, or lack thereof, of adequate cooling resources. Such resources are often subject to local environmental conditions, particularly ambient temperature which varies on a diurnal and annual basis.

Claim (Index 13):
The method of  claim 12  comprising the additional steps of (i) consuming electric power by said first motor/generator to pressurize the system via said first positive displacement machine whenever said second positive displacement machine is generating electric power, and (ii) consuming electric power by said second motor/generator to pressurize the system via said second positive displacement machine whenever said first positive displacement machine is generating electric power.
