STEPS FOR CALCULATING EFFICIENCY :
THERMAL ANALYSIS OF PDSC :
• Collector thermal efficiency :
ƞc= Qu/Qs
• The optical efficiency ƞo:
ƞo= Λρταγcosθ
ƞo= Λρταγ
• The total heat loss rate Ql :
Ql = Qlr + Qlc + Qlk.
• The expected efficiency of the concentrator system :
Ƞexpected = Qr – (Qcond +Qconv + Qrad ) / Qs
• The actual efficiency of the concentrator system :
Quseful = m Cp (Tout – Tin)
Ƞactual = Quseful / Qs
EXERGY ANALYSIS CALCULATION
EXERGY ANALYSIS OF PDSC:
• Exergy balance equation:
∑ Ein - ∑Eout - ∑Eloss - ∑Echange- ∑Edest =0
• The exergy accompanying an incompressible fluid flow :
Ein,f= mCp(Tin-Ta-Taln(Tin/Ta))+m(∆p/)
• The outlet exergy rate includes only the exergy rate of the outlet fluid flow:
Ef,out= mCp(Tout-Ta-Taln(Tout/Ta))+m(∆p/)
• the exergy that is accumulated by fluid flow through the receiver and is
expressed as:
∑Egain =∑Ef,out -∑Ein,f
• Using Petela’s approach of defining the exergy of solar radiation, the exact
exergy solar radiation :
Ein,r= IbȠpAa
EXERGY ANALYSIS CALCULATION(CONTI….)
• The exergy efficiency is the ratio of the gain exergy to solar radiation
exergy expressed as:
ȠE=Egain/Ein,r
OR
ȠE=1-(∑Eloss-∑Echange-∑Edes)/Ein,r
exergy leakage rate out to the surroundings due to optical errors and
heat transfer to ambient in a solar receiver:
∑Eloss=∑El,opt - ∑El,th
optical exergy rate :
∑El,opt=(1–Ƞo)IbȠpAa
Thermal exergy loss:
∑El,th=UlAr(Tr-Ta)2/Tr
EXERGY ANALYSIS CALCULATION(CONTI…)
• Under steady state conditions, ∑Echange = 0
