Abstract
An arrangement having multiple heat exchangers and a method for evaporating a working fluid by transferring heat from a heat source medium is described herein. The arrangement is used in connection with a system for recovering energy from waste heat in a thermodynamic cycle, in which the waste heat is used as the heat source medium. Each heat exchanger has a heat source medium through-passage separated from a working fluid chamber are serially interconnected in a ring arrangement. A supply line is provided between the heat source medium through-passages of any two serially consecutive heat exchangers in the ring arrangement, which can be connected selectively to the inlet of the heat source medium through-passage of each heat exchanger. Further, a discharge line for the heat source medium is provided, which can be connected selectively to the outlet of the heat source medium through-passage of each heat exchanger.
