Experimental and numerical analyses of a pressurized air receiver for solar-driven gas turbines / I. Hischier in Transactions of the ASME. Journal of solar energy engineering, Vol. 134 N° 2 (Mai 2012)

Titre : Experimental and numerical analyses of a pressurized air receiver for solar-driven gas turbines Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : I. Hischier, Auteur ; P. Leumann, Auteur ; A. Steinfeld, Auteur Année de publication : 2012 Article en page(s) : 08 p. Note générale : solar energy Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : solar-driven  gas  turbines;  solar  radiation;  numerical  analysis Index. décimale : 621.47 Résumé : A high-temperature pressurized air-based receiver for power generation via solar-driven gas turbines is experimentally examined and numerically modeled. It consists of an annular reticulate porous ceramic (RPC) foam concentric with an inner cylindrical cavity-receiver exposed to concentrated solar radiation. Absorbed heat is transferred by combined conduction, radiation, and convection to the pressurized air flowing across the RPC. The governing steady-state mass, momentum, and energy conservation equations are formulated and solved numerically by coupled finite volume and Monte Carlo techniques. Validation is accomplished with experimental results using a 3 kW solar receiver prototype subjected to average solar radiative fluxes at the CPC outlet in the range 1870–4360 kW m−2. Experimentation was carried out with air and helium as working fluids, heated from ambient temperature up to 1335 K at an absolute operating pressure of 5 bars. The validated model is then applied to optimize the receiver design for maximum solar energy conversion efficiency and to analyze the thermal performance of 100 kW and 1 MW scaled-up versions of the solar receiver.
