Solar thermal plant is one of the most interesting applications of solar energy for power generation. The plant is composed mainly of a solar collector field and a power conversion system to convert thermal energy into electricity.
Rankine, Brayton, and Stirling cycle are commonly used thermodynamic cycles for solar thermal power generation. The integration of thermal energy storage and hybridization of solar thermal energy systems with conventional power generation systems improves the performance and dispatchability of the solar thermal systems.
solar thermal energy (STE) Solar. the conversion of the radiant energy from the sun into heat, which can then be used for such purposes as space and hot water heating, industrial process heat, or power generation. See below. solar thermal energy When a dark surface is placed in sunshine, it absorbs solar energy and heats up.
Harnessing solar energy for electric power generation is one of the growing technologies which provide a sustainable solution to the severe environmental issues such as climate change, global warming, and pollution. This chapter deals with the solar thermal power generation based on the line and point focussing solar concentrators.
The solar thermal systems designed for the production of electrical energy are of two major types: (1) active solar thermal system and (2) passive solar thermal system. The active solar thermal system requires continuously moving parts, such as pumps and fans, for the circulation of fluids carrying the heat energy.
In this paper, the main components of solar thermal power systems including solar collectors, concentrators, TES systems and different types of heat transfer fluids (HTFs) used in solar farms have been discussed. . Some of existing solar thermal power plants all over the world [26, 27] Content may be subject to copyright.
