1973年石油危机之后,燃料价格急剧上涨。废热回收系统成为船舶设计中所考虑的主要问题之一。由此而产生的结果,较小功率的废热回收系统(300～500千瓦)已变得较普遍,而且种种迹像表明,有继续发展的趋势,甚至对于更小功率的装置亦然。可以预见随着最大限度利用废热量的要求更加迫切,更复杂的废 After the oil crisis of 1973, fuel prices rose sharply. Waste heat recovery systems have become one of the major issues considered in ship design. As a result, smaller power waste heat recovery systems (300-500 kW) have become more commonplace and there are indications that there is a continuing trend toward even lower power devices. It is foreseeable that more urgent and more complex waste will be required as the requirements of maximizing the utilization of waste heat
