Abstract
A power generating system includes a flow dividing structure, a first detector, a flow dividing adjusting valve, a heat accumulator, a heat exchanger and a turbine. The flow dividing structure divides a first heat medium into a first flow path and a second flow path. The first detector detects a flow rate of the first heat medium. The flow dividing adjusting valve opens the second flow path when the flow rate of the first heat medium exceeds a predetermined value. The heat accumulator accumulates the first heat medium via the second flow path and delivers the first heat medium at a temporally leveled flow rate. The heat exchanger transfers heat from the first heat medium to a second heat medium having a lower boiling point than the first heat medium. The turbine rotationally moves by the second heat medium with heat having been transferred by the heat exchanging unit.
