Learn MoreSolar dish/Stirling system A typical SDSS system is composed of a parabolic concentrator connected to a power conversion unit (PCU) as shown in Fig. 2 (a) and (b). The latter consists of a Stirling engine, a spiral cavity receiver, and an alternator.
The dish/engine system is a concentrating solar power (CSP) technology that produces smaller amounts of electricity than other CSP technologies—typically in the range of 3 to 25 kilowatts—but is beneficial for modular use. The two major parts of the system are the solar concentrator and the power conversion unit.
9.1. Introduction Dish concentrating solar power (CSP) systems use paraboloidal mirrors which track the sun and focus solar energy into a receiver where it is absorbed and transferred to a heat engine/generator or else into a heat transfer fluid that is transported to a ground-based plant.
It was indicated that the thermal efficiency was 25%, corresponding to a receiver temperature of 1596 K, for dish configuration system of 10.5 m diameter at a solar intensity of 1000 W/m 2. ( Beltrán-Chacon et al., 2015) established a theoretical model to assess the impact of operational and geometrical parameters on the SDSS thermal performance.
A dish system consists of: (a) a parabolic shaped concentrator, (b) tracking system, (c) solar heat exchanger (receiver), (d) an (optional) engine with generator and (e) a system control unit ( Fig.9.1 ). The concentrator tracks the sun bi-axially in such a way that the optical axis of the concentrator always points to the sun.
A thermal heat-pipe receiver was chosen to isothermally convert the concentrated solar energy from the parabolic dish to the AMTET. Their findings unveiled that the solar dish –AMTEC system produced a net power of 18.54 kW with an efficiency of 20.6%. Fig. 25. The solar dish/AMTEC power system ( Wu et al., 2010 ). 7.2.
