Design of a Phase Separation System for a Direct Steam Generation Parabolic Trough Collector Field
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The dynamic behavior of a parabolic trough collector field with direct steam generation under varying solar conditions is analyzed using a transient simulation model. It is found that the peak ...
Start-Up Modeling for Annual CSP Yield Calculations
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In solar thermal power plants, at least the solar part undergoes a daily start-up process. Since duration and energy consumption of the start-up depend on irradiance and temperature boundary ...
Field Test of Water-Steam Separators for Direct Steam Generation in Parabolic Troughs
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Direct steam generation (DSG) represents a promising option to improve today’s parabolic trough technology for solar thermal power generation. The European DISS and INDITEP projects have proven ...
A Direct Steam Generation Solar Power Plant With Integrated Thermal Storage
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: For the future market potential of parabolic trough power plants with direct steam generation (DSG), it is beneficial to integrate a thermal storage system. Heat storage media based on phase ...
