This paper presents a comparative study on the energy, exergetic and thermo-economic performance of a novelty thermal power system integrated by a supercritical CO

Brayton cycle, and a recuperative organic Rankine cycle (RORC) or a simple organic Rankine cycle (SORC). A thermodynamic model was developed applying the mass, energy and exergy balances to all the equipment, allowing to calculate the exergy destruction in the components. In addition, a sensitivity analysis allowed studying the effect of the primary turbine inlet temperature (T

) on the net power generated, the thermal and exergy efficiency, and some thermo-economic indicators such as the payback period (PBP), the specific investment cost (SIC), and the levelized cost of energy (LCOE), when cyclohexane, acetone and toluene are used as working fluids in the bottoming organic Rankine cycle. The parametric study results show that cyclohexane is the organic fluid that presents the best thermo-economic performance, and the optimization with the PSO method conclude a 2308.91 USD/kWh in the SIC, 0.22 USD/kWh in the LCOE, and 9.89 year in the PBP for the RORC system. Therefore, to obtain technical and economic viability, and increase the industrial applications of these thermal systems, thermo-economic optimizations must be proposed to obtain lower values of the evaluated performance indicators.
