Abstract:Solar thermal electricity generation is one of the encouraging technologies for reducing scarcity of electricity in the world in a renewable and sustainable manner. Solar Organic Rankine Cycles (SORC) are sustainable and an eco-friendly means of power production at low and medium heat source temperatures. The proposed system includes a Parabolic Trough Collector based solar system, which operates with Therminol VP-1 oil, a two-tank direct thermal energy storage unit and an Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) operates … Show more
