dc.description.abstract |
Use of solar thermal devices has proved a viable option for power generation
in many countries that have abundant solar radiation throughout the year. Power
Tower and Parabolic Trough collectors are the most common and commercially
proven technologies in such solar thermal power plants. This paper presents the
design and simulation of 1 MWe solar thermal power plant in which the steam
is generated by Australian Nation University’s (ANU) 520 m2 solar parabolic dish
concentrators. The plant also powers a vapour absorption-chilling unit that uses steam
extracted from the turbine to produce a cooling effect. This paper discusses the design
of the power cycle, and through the simulation, estimates the annual power generation
from the power block and tonnes of refrigeration produced by vapour absorption
chiller. Apart from the design of the power cycle, the layout of dishes is also designed
for maximum steam generation from the solar field. The waste heat from the vapour
absorption system may be used for low-grade heating applications |
