The Performance of a thermal system is generally analysed by carrying out energy and exergy analysis of its different subsystems. In the present study the performance of subsystem namely PDC, receiver plate and PDC in a system of solar parabolic dish thermoelectric generator is studied. It is found that the energy and exergy loss are minimum in the receiver plate as compared to PDC and thermoelectric generator (TEG) at a particular direct normal irradiation (DNI). The exergy and energy efficiency in the PDC and TEG increase with increase in concentration ratio.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
