An irreversible solar-driven Braysson heat engine system is presented, in which the temperature-dependent heat capacity of the working fluid, the radiation–convection heat losses of the solar collector and the irreversibilities resulting from heat transfer and non-isentropic compression and expansion processes are taken into account. Based on the thermodynamic analysis method and the optimal control theory, the mathematical expression of the overall efficiency of the system is derived and the maximum overall efficiency is calculated, and the operating temperatures of the solar collector and the cyclic working fluid and the ratio of heat-transfer areas of the heat engine are optimized. By using numerical optimization technology, the influences of the variable heat capacity of the working fluid, the radiation–convection heat losses of the solar collector and the multi-irreversibilities on the performance characteristics of the solar-driven heat engine system are investigated and evaluated in detail. Moreover, it is expounded that the optimal performance and important parametric bounds of the irreversible solar-driven Braysson heat engine with the constant heat capacity of the working fluid and the irreversible solar-driven Carnot heat engine can be deduced from the conclusions in the present paper.  相似文献

A novel model of the solar-driven thermodynamic cycle system which consists of a solar collector and a Braysson heat engine is established. The performance characteristics of the system are optimized on the basis of the linear heat-loss model of a solar collector and the irreversible cycle model of a Braysson heat engine. The maximum efficiency of the system and the optimally operating temperature of the solar collector are determined and other relevant performance characteristics of the system are discussed. The results obtained here may provide some theoretical guidance for the optimal design and operation of solar-driven Braysson and Carnot heat engines.  相似文献

An irreversible cycle model of a solar-driven Brayton heat engine is established, in which the heat losses of the solar collector and the external and internal irreversibilities of the heat engine are taken into account, and used to investigate the optimal performance of the cycle system. The maximum overall efficiency of the system is determined. The operating temperature of the solar collector and the temperature ratio in the isobaric process are optimized. The influence of the heat losses of the solar collector and the external and internal irreversibilities of the heat engine on the cyclic performance is discussed in detail. Some important curves which can reveal the optimum performance characteristics of the system are given. The results obtained here are general, and consequently, may be directly used to discuss the optimal performance of other solar-driven heat engines.  相似文献

This paper presents an investigation on finite time thermodynamic (FTT) evaluation of a solar‐dish Stirling heat engine. FTTs has been applied to determine the output power and the corresponding thermal efficiency, exergetic efficiency, and the rate of entropy generation of a solar Stirling system with a finite rate of heat transfer, regenerative heat loss, conductive thermal bridging loss, and finite regeneration process time. Further imperfect performance of the dish collector and convective/radiative heat transfer mechanisms in the hot end as well as the convective heat transfer in the heat sink of the engine are considered in the developed model. The output power of the engine is maximized while the highest temperature of the engine is considered as a design parameter. In addition, thermal efficiency, exergetic efficiency, and the rate of entropy generation corresponding to the optimum value of the output power is evaluated. Results imply that the optimized absorber temperature is some where between 850 K and 1000 K. Sensitivity of results against variations of the system parameters are studied in detail. The present analysis provides a good theoretical guidance for the designing of dish collectors and operating the Stirling heat engine system.  相似文献

In this paper, a novel system to enhance the performance of a solar-driven finite speed alpha-type Stirling engine is proposed and evaluated. Part of the concentrated solar energy is used to drive an ejector refrigeration system. The cooling produced in the ejector cooling cycle is used to cool the Stirling engine to enhance its efficiency. Model equations to describe the systems are proposed and solved numerically. The results indicate that the new system produces averagely 3.3 times electrical power more than the conventional one. Moreover, the proposed system improves the Stirling engine efficiency by up to 46% in comparison with 19.15% for the conventional Stirling engine under solar radiation intensity of (1 kW/m2). Also, the results showed that the solar radiation intensity and wind speed are the most influential parameters that affect the proposed system efficiency. The new system is recommended to use in desert climates where high average daily solar radiation intensity, low wind speeds, and water shortage exist. Economic analysis is carried out to determine the feasibility of the proposed system under different economic parameters. It is found that, for instance, the simple payback period is 4.64 years for the new system when the selling price of electricity is 0.35 $/kWh.  相似文献

The effect of the heat loss from the piping system of a solar collector field of a large size is measured and the effect of this loss on the effective collector efficiency is evaluated. The data are used to develop a model that can be used to evaluate the effect of piping loss on collector efficiency for solar field of different areas. The collector field used in this study consists of 1064 evacuated tube collectors; each one has an absorber area of 1.75 m2. They are connected in a series–parallel arrangement and designed in a U-shape. Measurements of the heat loss in the piping system indicate that a drop in the collector efficiency occurs due to this heat loss. The effect of the heat loss on the collector efficiency was found to depend on the collector x-parameter with higher x corresponding to larger efficiency drop. The standard Hottel–Whillier–Bliss (HWB) equation for the collector efficiency was modified so that the form of the equation is maintained while the parameters change due to the inclusion of piping loss in the equation. The modified parameters were estimated for the collector field based on measurement and the data were used in the model to generalize the results for field with different piping to collector area ratios.  相似文献

In this communication, a 50 MWe design capacity parabolic dish Stirling engine solar power plant (PDSSPP) has been modeled for analysis, where 2000 units of parabolic dish Stirling engine each having capacity of 25 kWe were considered to get desired capacity. An attempt has been made to carry out the energetic and exergetic analysis of different components of a solar power plant system using parabolic dish collector/receiver and Stirling engine. The energetic and exergetic losses as well as efficiencies for typical PDSSPP under the typical operating conditions have been evaluated. Variations of the efficiency of Stirling engine solar power plant at the part‐load condition are considered for year‐round performance evaluation. The developed model is examined at location Jodhpur (26.29°N, 73.03°E) in India. It is found that year‐round energetic efficiency varies from 15.57% to 27.09%, and exergetic efficiency varies from 16.83% to 29.18%. The unit cost of electric energy generation (kWeh) is about 8.76 Indian rupees (INR), with 30 years life span of the plant and 10% interest rate on investment.

This paper presents a numerical study about the performance of a Beta Stirling solar thermal engine system. This system is composed of a solar collector box connected to a regenerator hydraulic system and a transmitting power system. The objective of the system is to offer a new alternative to help solving stagnant water pollution in hot countries like Thailand by circulating water in canals, lakes, ponds etc. for aeration using solar energy.The purpose of this study is to determine the power output and actual heat transfer on the performance of the solar thermal engine. The solar thermal engine is analyzed using a mathematical model based on the first law of thermodynamics for processes with finite speed, with particular attention to the energy balance at the receiver. The result of calculations showed that the regenerator volume and phase angle must be chosen carefully to fulfill the requirement that total fluid mass in the system is constant and to obtain maximum power output throughout the day.  相似文献

It is proven that a solar absorption heat transformer affected by the irreversibility of finite-rate heat transfer may be modelled as an equivalent combined system consisting of a solar collector and an endoreversible absorption heat transformer, the latter being further treated as a combined cycle having an endoreversible heat pump driven by an endoreversible heat engine. The maximum coefficient of performance of the system is determined, based on the linear heat loss model for solar collectors and the general optimum relation for endoreversible absorption heat transformers. The optimality problems concerning the primary performance parameters of the system are discussed. The results obtained here may serve as a good guide for the evaluation of existing real solar absorption heat transformers or provide some theoretical bases for the optimal design of future solar absorption heat transformers. © 1997 by John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.  相似文献

In this research, a gamma-type, low-temperature differential (LTD) solar Stirling engine with two cylinders was modeled, constructed and primarily tested. A flat-plate solar collector was employed as an in-built heat source, thus the system design was based on a temperature difference of 80 °C. The principles of thermodynamics as well as Schmidt theory were adapted to use for modeling the engine. To simulate the system some computer programs were written to analyze the models and the optimized parameters of the engine design were determined. The optimized compression ratio was computed to be 12.5 for solar application according to the mean collector temperature of 100 °C and sink temperature of 20 °C. The corresponding theoretical efficiency of the engine for the mentioned designed parameters was calculated to be 0.012 for zero regenerator efficiency. Proposed engine dimensions are as follows: power piston stroke 0.044 m, power piston diameter 0.13 m, displacer stroke 0.055 m and the displacer diameter 0.41 m. Finally, the engine was tested. The results indicated that at mean collector temperature of 110 °C and sink temperature of 25 °C, the engine produced a maximum brake power of 0.27 W at 14 rpm. The mean engine speed was about 30 rpm at solar radiation intensity of 900 W/m2 and without load. The indicated power was computed to be 1.2 W at 30 rpm.  相似文献

A new integrated combined cooling, heating and power system which includes a solid oxide fuel cell, Stirling engine, steam turbine, linear Fresnel solar field and double effect absorption chiller is introduced and investigated from energy, exergy and thermodynamic viewpoints. In this process, produced electrical power by the fuel cell and steam turbines is 6971.8 kW. Stirling engine uses fuel cell waste heat and produces 656 kW power. In addition, absorption chiller is driven by waste heat of the Stirling engine and generates 2118.8 kW of cooling load. Linear Fresnel solar field produces 961.7 kW of thermal power as a heat exchanger. The results indicate that, electrical, energy and exergy efficiencies and total exergy destruction of the proposed system are 49.7%, 67.5%, 55.6% and 12560 kW, respectively. Finally, sensitivity analysis to investigate effect of the different parameters such as flow rate of inputs, outlet pressure of the components and temperature changes of the solar system on the hybrid system performance is also done.  相似文献

The optimal system operating temperature and the overall system efficiency of anirreversible solar heat engine have been determined. The solar collector heat loss is byconvection or radiation and the heat engine is internally and externally irreversible. It isconcluded that the system operating temperature and the overall system efficiency depend on theinternal irreversibility of the heat engine.  相似文献

A unified model is presented for a class of combined energy systems, in which the systems mainly consist of a heat engine, a combustor and a counter-flow heat exchanger and the heat engine in the systems may have different thermodynamic cycle modes such as the Brayton cycle, Carnot cycle, Stirling cycle, Ericsson cycle, and so on. Not only the irreversibilities of the heat leak and finite-rate heat transfer but also the different cycle modes of the heat engine are considered in the model. On the basis of Newton’s law, expressions for the overall efficiency and power output of the combined energy system with an irreversible Brayton cycle are derived. The maximum overall efficiency and power output and other relevant parameters are calculated. The general characteristic curves of the system are presented for some given parameters. Several interesting cases are discussed in detail. The results obtained here are very general and significant and can be used to discuss the optimal performance characteristics of a class of combined energy systems with different cycle modes. Moreover, it is significant to point out that not only the important conclusions obtained in Bejan’s first combustor model and Peterson’s general combustion driven model but also the optimal performance of a class of solar-driven heat engine systems can be directly derived from the present paper under some limit conditions.  相似文献

The effect of the irreversibility of finite-rate heat transfer on the performance of a solar-driven heat pump is investigated by using the theory of finite time thermodynamics. Maximizing the COP of the system leads to some novel rules for the optimum choices of primary performance parameters, such as the operating temperatures of the solar collector and the working fluid in the heat exchangers and the heat transfer areas of the heat exchangers. These rules can guide the evaluation of existing real solar-driven heat pumps or influence the design of future solar-driven heat pumps.  相似文献

This communication presents a second law analysis based on an exergy concept for a solar thermal power system. Basic energy and exergy analysis for the system components (viz. parabolic trough collector/receiver and Rankine heat engine, etc.) are carried out for evaluating the respective losses as well as exergetic efficiency for typical solar thermal power systems under given operating conditions. It is found that the main energy loss takes place at the condenser of the heat engine part, whereas the exergy analysis shows that the collector–receiver assembly is the part where the losses are maximum. The analysis and results can be used for evaluating the component irreversibilities which can also explain the deviation between the actual efficiency and ideal efficiency of a solar thermal power system.  相似文献

The overall heat loss coefficient (U-value) of a vacuum tube solar collector is investigated experimentally and theoretically with regard to the pressure of the remaining gas inside the evacuated glass envelope. A number of collector tubes of same geometry are randomly selected from an installation of a solar based air-conditioning system and tested individually in the laboratory for the determination of the U-value. Measurement results indicate that most of the examined collector tubes have higher overall heat loss coefficients than expected corresponding to a significant amount of gas inside the glass envelope.For the same conditions, an approximate theoretical model is developed for the evaluation of the U-value. The theoretical model is validated against the experimental results for a collector tube having air inside the glass cover at atmospheric pressure and found to be in close agreement. Then, the influence of gas pressure is studied for various gases. Possible presence of air, hydrogen, helium and argon is discussed.  相似文献

A “dynamic” solar power plant (which consists of a solar collector–thermal engine combination) is proposed as an alternative for the more usual photovoltaic cells. A model for heat losses in a selective flat-plate solar collector operating on Mars is developed. An endoreversible Carnot cycle is used to describe heat engine operation. This provides upper limits for real performances. The output power is maximized. Meteorological and actinometric data provided by Viking Landers are used as inputs. Two strategies of collecting solar energy were considered: (i) horizontal collector; (ii) collector tilt and orientation are continuously adjusted to keep the receiving surface perpendicular on the Sun’s rays. The influences of climate and of various design parameters on solar collector heat losses, on engine output power and on the optimum sun-to-user efficiency are discussed.  相似文献

The overall efficiency of solar thermal power plants is investigated for estimating the upper limit of their practical performances. This study consists of the theoretical optimization of the heat engine and the optimization of the overall system efficiency, which is the product of the efficiency of the solar collector and the efficiency of the heat engine. In order to obtain a more realistic performance of the solar thermal power plant, the solar collector concentration ratio, the diffused solar radiation and the convective and radiative heat losses of the solar collector are taken into account. Instead of the classical Carnot efficiency, the efficiency at maximum power is used as the optimal conversion efficiency of a heat engine. By means of simple calculations, the optimal overall system efficiency and the corresponding operating conditions of the solar collector are obtained. The results of the present work provide an accurate guide to the performance estimation and the design of solar thermal power plants.  相似文献
