Energy-based control of a distributed solar collector field
نویسندگان
چکیده
Model-based control of the outlet temperature of a distributed solar collector eld is studied. An energy-based controller is derived using internal energy as a storage function and controlled variable. The controller relies on a distributed parameter nonlinear plant model and includes feedforward from the solar irradiation and inlet temperature. Stability of the closed loop is proved, and the method is experimentally veri ed to perform well on a pilot-scale solar power plant.

Constrained Adaptive Non-linear Neural Model-Based Predictive Control of a Distributed Solar Collector Field
This paper describes the application of a non-linear adaptive constrained model-based predictive control scheme to the distributed collector field of a solar power plant at the Plataforma Solar de Almería (Spain). This methodology takes advantage of the intrinsic non-linear modelling capabilities of non-linear state-space neural networks and of their online training by means of an unscented Kal...
متن کاملNumerical analysis of performance of solar parabolic trough collector with Cu-Water nanofluid
In the present work the effect of Cu-Water nanofluid, as heat transfer fluid, on the performance of a parabolic solar collector was studied numerically. The temperature field, thermal efficiency, mean-outlet temperatures have been evaluated and compared for the conventional parabolic collectors and nanofluid based collectors. Further, the effect of various parameters such as fluid velocity, vol...

متن کاملFeedback Linearization Control for a Distributed Solar Collector Field
This article presents a feedback linearization control of a distributed solar collector field, which main purpose is to heat a fluid using the energy provided by the solar irradiation. The control objective is to track an outlet temperature reference manipulating the fluid flow trying to attenuate the effect of disturbances (mainly radiation and inlet temperature). A feedback linearization tech...
متن کاملThe Possibility of using Flat Plate Solar Collector Based on the Best Calculated Tilt Angle in the City of Rasht as a Case Study (TECHNICAL NOTE)
The possibility of using flat plate collector in northern parts of Iran specially city of Rasht has been investigated in this paper. According to the high humidity in the northern parts of this country, diffuse radiation plays a more important role than direct radiation. This fact can change the results of delivered solar energy and the best tilt angle of the collector compared to the sunny cen...
