ASME. . November 2024; 146 (11): 112102. To improve the performance of traditional solar power generation systems, a new solar organic Rankine cycle system that can generate electricity and heat is proposed. The system incorporates the separation-flash process, regenerator, and ejector to enhance its efficiency.
Substantial progress has been made in the area of solar power generation and application covering analysis, simulation, and hardware development and testing for efficiency maximization and cost minimization.
They have also demonstrated the capability of the model in accurately simulating the I – V and P – V characteristics of the real PV module. The proposed model can also be used to design and simulate solar PV system with different power converter topologies and controllers including different MPPT control methods.
A basic photovoltaic system integrated with utility grid is shown in Fig. 2. The PV array converts the solar energy to dc power, which is directly dependent on insolation. Blocking diode facilitates the array generated power to flow only towards the power conditioner.
Coco-Enríquez et al. (2017) compare the performance of a solar plant, based on a SRC, with four solar sCO 2 cycles configurations, all of them with reheating: the basic regenerative cycle and three recompression layouts (the standard, the partial cooling, and the intercooling).
Solar power is the conversion of sunlight into electricity, either directly using photovoltaic (PV), or indirectly using concentrated solar power (CSP). The research has been underway since very beginning for the development of an affordable, in-exhaustive and clean solar energy technology for longer term benefits.
