Cost and performance analysis of an integrated solar combined cycle with two tanks for indirect thermal energy storage

In this paper, the annual and economic performance of an integrated solar combined cycle (ISCC) with indirect energy storage tanks is investigated. The study includes four scenarios, in which the combined cycle performance was studied exclusively in the first scenario. In the second scenario, the integrated solar combined cycle (ISCC) was examined, and the use of supplementary firing instead of...

Life Cycle Exergy Analysis of Solar Energy Systems

With a dependence on finite natural resources, increasing energy demands and increasing environmental problems, the use of renewable resources becomes even more important. This is one part of a sustainable development. The ultimate source of most of our renewable energy supplies is the sun. The world’s primary energy use is easily exceeded by the solar energy by a factor of about 10000 [1]. The...

Exergy Analysis of Flat Plate Solar Collectors

This study proposes the concept of the local heat loss coefficient and examines the calculation method for the average heat loss coefficient and the average absorber plate temperature. It also presents an exergy analysis model of flat plate collectors, considering non-uniformity in temperature distribution along the absorber plate. The computation results agree well with experimental data. The ...
