Patent attributes
A waste heat recovery system (100) for an engine (101), comprises a fluid supply (104); two or more evaporators (120, 121) adapted to receive waste heat from an engine (101); a valve module (114) including an inlet port (115) in fluid communication with the fluid supply (104), a first outlet port (116) in fluid communication with a first evaporator (120) of the two or more evaporators (120, 121), and a second outlet port (117) in fluid communication with a second evaporator (121) of the two or more evaporators (120, 21), the module being adapted to selectively provide a fluid communication path between the fluid supply (104) and one or more of the two or more evaporators (120, 21). A fluid control module (200, 400) for a waste heat recovery system (100) with a 10 working fluid is provided. The static seal fluid control module (200, 400) includes a module body (250, 430) at least partially enclosing a pump (220) and at least one valve (210, 230, 240, 410, 420) wherein no atmospheric dynamic seals retain the working fluid in the static seal fluid control module (200, 400).
