Abstract
A waste heat recovery apparatus, for use with an internal combustion engine, includes a working fluid circuit to circulate working fluid, a boiler connected on the working fluid circuit and adapted to recover waste heat from a source to heat working fluid, an expander connected on the working fluid circuit to receive working fluid from the boiler, and a condenser to receive and condense working fluid from the expander. A line carries condensed working fluid from the outlet side of the condenser to a mixer on the outlet side of the expander to lower the enthalpy of the working fluid entering the condenser.
