Energetic comparison of solar thermal power plants
Solar Energy Materials, 1991Abstract The power production technologies based on the central receiver (tower), parabolic trough and the parabolic dish/Stirling concept are compared on the level of annually produced electric energy by means of the following tools: - input/output characteristics on daily basis; - annual system and subsystem efficiencies; - diurnal plant

Solar thermal power plant simulation
Environmental Progress & Sustainable Energy, 2012A detailed model of a real solar thermal power plant has been built using a steady‐state power plant simulation software. The plant includes numerous parabolic trough collectors tracking the sun on a single axis. A heat transfer fluid flows in the focal line of the troughs collecting solar heat, which is transferred to high pressure water from the ...

Thermal Solar Power Plants Experience
1991In parallel with rising interest in solar power generation, several solar thermal facilities of different configuration and size were built, operated, and evaluated in the last decade and a half. Some of these facilities were of exploratory, first-of-a-kind or demonstration nature, in some cases designed merely as engineering experiments for the ...

Solar repowering of Soma-A thermal power plant
Energy Conversion and Management, 2012Abstract In this study, solar repowering of the Soma-A thermal power plant in Turkey is investigated using simulations. The Soma A thermal power plant began operation in 1957 and has served until 2010. In the current situation the installed capacity of the power plant is 44 MW el with two units.

Thermal Storage for Solar Power Plants
1991Like any other power plant, solar power plant (SPP) output must satisfy the demands of the utility market. During peak demand periods, kilomwatt-hour prices are high and financial incentives are high for guaranteed supply. Solar plant input is limited by diurnal, seasonal and weather-related insolation changes. In order to cope with these fluctuations,
