Popis: This paper discusses the key technical aspects of the Organic Rankin - Clausius cycle (ORC), unconventional technology with great potential for the use of low-potential heat and the use of geothermal and solar energy, and in connection with the burning of biomass. The principle of ORC has been known since the late 19th century. The development of new organic substances and improvements to the expansion device now allows full commercial exploitation of ORC. The right choice of organic working substances has the most important role in the design of ORC, depending on the specific application. The chosen working substance and achieved operating parameters will affect the selection and construction of the expansion device. For this purpose the screw engine, inversion of the screw compressor, can be used.
