Numerical simulation of a solar chimney power plant in the southern region of Iran
Three-dimensional numerical simulations are performed to investigate the effects of pressure drop across the turbine and solar radiance on the performance of a solar chimney power plant (SCPP). The SCPP system expected to provide electric power to a city is located in southern region of Iran (city of Lamerd, Fars province). Its dimensions are similar to the Manzanares prototype (built in Spain,...
متن کاملEvaluation of solar-chimney power plants with multiple-angle collectors
Solar chimney power plants are plants based on solar thermal power including three parts of collector, chimney and turbine, which is able to produce electrical energy. One of the effective parameters in increasing the power production is the collector angles versus horizon. In the present study, a numerical analysis of a solar chimney power plant for different angles of the collector (divergent...
متن کاملNumerical Investigation of Effective Parameters on Efficiency of Solar Chimney
The environmental pollution crisis caused by the excessive use of fossil fuels and the risk of the destruction of natural resources and reserves, as well as the excessive production of greenhouse gases and, consequently, global warming, led many energy researchers to use renewable energy As a fossil fuel alternative. Solar chimneys are one of the types of renewable energies that have been taken...
متن کاملSolar Chimney Power Plants – Developments and Advancements
A wide range of existing power technologies can make use of the solar energy reaching Earth. Basically, all those ways can be divided into two basic categories: transformed for use elsewhere or utilized directly – direct – and involving more than one transformation to reach a usable form – indirect. The Solar Chimney Power Plant (SCPP) is part of the solar thermal group of indirect solar conver...
متن کاملMulti-Objective Optimization of a Solar Chimney Power Plant with Inclined Collector Roof Using Genetic Algorithm
This paper presents an optimization of a solar chimney power plant with an inclined collector roof using genetic algorithms. Five design parameters that affect the system performance are the collector radius, collector inlet height, collector outlet height, chimney height and diameter. A multi-objective design to simultaneously optimize three conflicting objectives including system efficiency, ...
