The exploitation of solar energy has become a major concern, especially since our country holds a significant solar potential during the year. We can use concentrated solar energy to produce electricity or heat. This contribution consists, from simulations, in the parametric analysis of the operation of a solar concentration thermal installation, highlighting the direction of the variation of the thermal efficiency as a function of the low pressure for a machine working according to the ideal cycle of RANKINE. We were interested too:

  • In the sense of the variation of the thermal efficiency as a function of the temperature of the superheat for an improved installation working according to the ideal cycle of HIRN
  • At the influence of the overheating temperature for the HIRN cycle and low pressures for both cycles (RANKINE and HIRN), on the yield in order to propose a possible improvement.

Simulations for different modifications on the RANKINE and HIRN cycles show that for an increase in the superheat temperature, the reduction of the low-pressure lead to a better yield.

Abstract


The exploitation of solar energy has become a major concern, especially since our country holds a significant solar potential during the year. We can use concentrated solar energy to produce electricity or heat. This contribution consists, from simulations, in the parametric analysis of the operation of a solar concentration thermal installation, highlighting the direction of the variation of the thermal efficiency as a function of the low pressure for a machine working according to the ideal cycle of RANKINE. We were interested too:

  • In the sense of the variation of the thermal efficiency as a function of the temperature of the superheat for an improved installation working according to the ideal cycle of HIRN
  • At the influence of the overheating temperature for the HIRN cycle and low pressures for both cycles (RANKINE and HIRN), on the yield in order to propose a possible improvement.

Simulations for different modifications on the RANKINE and HIRN cycles show that for an increase in the superheat temperature, the reduction of the low-pressure lead to a better yield.
