Abstract

A supercritical CO2 generation system using plural heat sources, includes: a pump configured to circulate a working fluid; heat exchangers configured to heat the working fluid using an external heat source; turbines configured to be driven by the working fluid heated by passing through the heat exchanger; and recuperators configured to exchange heat between the working fluid passing through the turbine and the working fluid passing through the pump to cool the working fluid passing through the turbine, in which the heat exchanger includes constrained heat exchangers having an emission regulation condition of an outlet end and heat exchangers without the emission regulation condition.
