Amidst a backdrop of rapidly increasing world-wide electricity demand, solar thermal power generation shows great potential for supplying the electricity needs of numerous countries in the Sun-belt regions of the world. In these regions, the absence of sig ...
Solar thermal power is a very promising technique in the future, while the design of heliostat field, which decide the investment and the energy received, influences very much thermoeconomics of the power system so as the capital cost of the electricity ob ...
This work discusses solar power towers and especially the simulation and optimization of heliostat fields. The technological stateof the art is given through typical characteristic values and dimensions of some existing central tower power plants such as t ...
In the present climate of growing awareness about the dangers of global climate change, the development of new renewable energy technologies is primordial in the efforts to reduce emissions of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases. Rapid increases in t ...
Solar thermal power plants have a large potential, particularly in the sun belt countries around the world. The objectives of this study are to identify the heliostat fields for solar tower plants with the lowest specific energy cost and to investigate the ...
As our awareness of the dangers of global climate change grows, the development of new renewable energy technologies is of primary importance in the effort to reduce emissions of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases. Rapid increases in the price of oi ...
This paper introduces a novel of mini-hybrid solar power plant integrating a field of solar concentrators, two superposed Organic Rankine Cycles (ORC) and a (bio)Diesel engine. Turbines for the organic Rankine Cycles are hermetic scroll expander-generators ...
